Love the Oregon rain, most of the time.(not too much since I have been missing Ollie, I get depressed but I am thankful for a warm fire) So thankful I have a stove to heat my house when it get chilly. I am the family kindling chopper and fire starter.(Chris does it when he has time, which is almost never) It is so relaxing to sit next to the fire, feel its warmth and smell the fresh pine cones and wood. oh and by the way, the fire is the only way we heat our house...so it gets pretty chilly if Im too lazy to start the fire.

| Our big backyard-we got this house for Ollie, so he could run around in the backyard..sad |

| Wood donated by our kind friends! so thankful |

| Fire starters...made by my best mom. Wax, drier lint and pine cones. So amazing. If you want the exact recipe let me know. They could be used for emergency preparedness. |
Love my wood burning stove! I am the maintenance fire person too (Dan is always at work). There is a magical warmth from a stove!
