Santa Arrived Early!

This year we decided to give ourselves a gas fireplace for Christmas.  So we checked with Santa and he agreed.  He has been really busy and since we are old hands at Christmas he wondered if he could deliver our gift early.  We said yes and today he arrived and he even installed it. Our brick fireplace used to have a firewood burning insert which we got rid of several years ago.  So for the last 8-10 years we have had a piece of paneling covering the firebox to keep the heated air from going up the chimney.  It really didn't look that great but we didn't know what we wanted to do until we saw a set of gas fireplace logs installed in a neighbors house.  We decided that was the way to go. The gas logs are more for ambiance than for heating.  They do keep the living room toasty when we sit there reading on cold and wet winter nights.  We have only had one night with Santa's work but it is great!  Should have done it a long time ago. So if you happen to be in the area on Christmas Eve between 5:00 and 7:50 (just before church) stop by for soup, Goni's home baked dinner rolls and a sit by the fire for a while.
