New Fireplace and the first snow of the winter

This past week we finally got our fireplace put in. It is SOOOOO cold here in the winter that without it, we are paying WAY TO MUCH for electricity (yes our house is all electricity). We don't get natural gas in our area. So, we put in a fireplace ourselves. Next year we will do some rock and pretty stuff around it, but we just did n't have time to do it if we wanted to get it in before the first snow happened, which was TODAY!

Your fireplace looks very nice! Good job getting it done! I love wood burning stoves. The heat and the smell, it just feels so cozy!

I miss you so much. Let's get together. Let me know when you'll be around (moab, salt lake, etc). If you have the info, can you give Melissa Bagley my e-mail. I would love to be able to see their blog (if it's okay with them).

I can't believe you have snow so soon! Is it cold year round where you live? Good luck this winter!

I must say that I am a fan of your background choice ;) I love wood heat. I wish we could have it in our house. Maybe someday.
