A family in Riverview, N.B., is making plans for Christmas and the future after escaping a fire in their home on November, 14.
Blaze and Stone Zervos got to see their bedroom on Sunday.
The boys, ages five and six, climbed the stairs to the upper floor and peeked into the room they shared for the first time since fire damaged their home ten days ago,
They didn’t stay long.
The boys were at home with their mother and older sister when a fire broke out at their Riverview, N.B., home on Nov. 14.
Twelve-year-old Olivia noticed smoke coming from a closet next to her bedroom. She told her mom Hayley who told Olivia to call 911 and tried to put the fire out with a fire extinguisher. When it didn’t work, they abandoned the home.
“I didn’t think, we just got everybody out,” said Hayley.
Everyone was able to get out of the house safely, including the family dog and cat.
