How will Santa get in?

In all the years that Stephannie and Brendan have been married they only had one place without a fireplace, but that Christmas they were at families to Santa had a way to get to them. With it being Aria's first Christmas how were the stockings going to be hung by the fire with care if there was no fireplace?

What happens when you have a bunch of boxes from baby furniture, Amazon orders and moving and you add a teacher/artist and engineer? You  get a home made fireplace!

Aria was checking that Daddy was measuring twice and cutting once.

"Where is the end of the tape?"

End result....drum roll please....

   

New fireplace, decked out for Christmas and sporting our Lego winter village (new family tradition, added to each year). Aria dreaming of sugarplums???

  

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM CAMBRIDGE!

(Looks like it will be a green one)
