Fire!

This week the children have vacation and so Caroline had to give the treats at school a day earlier. Were it not for the fact that Friday her class had a Autumn-Do-Day where they would be wandering in the woods half of the day.
So Thursday morning this is what we made:

Then Friday afternoon the chimney sweepers finally came by, checked the whole thing, ran over some filter on the roof, but gave it their ok in the end and for the very first time we lit a fire!!!

The kids loved it. Timo ran up to me upstairs and urged me to come down with a book so we could cuddle up in front of the fire.

Seriously.
This is what it looked like.

Then they wanted cheese for desert and could they please please eat it in front of the fireplace.
Sam didn't mind joining in and warmed himself in front of the fire too.
The whole happy family:
