Gnome Fire Party : First Fire Of The Year

The first frost came this morning so I wanted to celebrate with a fire.

Little Seed is too poorly to go outside for a real fire so 

we brought some warmth inside for him.

Big Seed helped to gather some Autumn treasures from outside in our garden

to add to those he has collected and played with earlier this year.

Twigs, dead stems, seed heads, leaves, old dried lavender, acorns, etc

We made our first fire and all threw the Autumn treasures into it,

turned off the lights and listened to the noises and watched it burn.

All the gnomes were also here to watch and share in the first fire party.

Soon it will be time for the Autumn gnomes to go to sleep, it's getting very cold.

This inspired some storytelling about fires which I will post tomorrow.
