That looks like a very cozy house. We don't do fireplaces here, but Lily and enjoyed them when we were in Germany with my family over Christmas. She was quite fascinated by the little oven ventilators. And rightly so. Very cool technique and idea.

Looks like you got a nice walk out in the woods, too! I just woke up to a looooot of rain and it's market day. Hope it settles before that. Usually it does...
