the snow fell through the night and as morning broke the day seemed to slow down before we even knew it.
we had quite a day ahead of us filled with commitments.
one by one those things were cancelled and a day playing in the snow and snuggling by the fire took their place.
the fire was started early this morning and will stay lit probably until bedtime.
many times as i stoke it i am reminded of how a fire place was one of the only things (other than a kitchen that could fit a cozy nook with a chair in it) that i required when buying a house.
after the settlement of our house 12 years ago this past december, we walked into our new home empty and full of promise, started a fire and ate a pizza on the bare hardwood floor.
I enjoy your photos and your blog very much. My lifestyle here in Oklahoma is quite different so it’s nice for me to sort of live vicariously and find inspiration in that difference and maybe slide a little of it in where I can. Thanks for sharing online!
so lovely. i really wish we had a fireplace here. sometimes i daydream about putting in a woodstove in our living room. also? when we first got the keys to our house, we ate pizza on the wood floors too (minus the fire, though) 🙂
Ah! These giant photos are awesome! Your photos are always so pretty but now they’re even prettier.
