Just Having Fun

We have really enjoyed having Meighan.  She is such a good girl. Bandit loves her.
I am glad she brought her winter coat - we have had some rainy, cold weather.Meg loves to cook, so we decided to make a cake for her to take home for Mommy, Daddy and Alex.She chose lemon!!


This is the first time I have used my Wilton Cupcake Pan.

So far so good.  We had some batter left over so we made cupcakes for us. They were yummy.



The cake was good, but as we were decorating it the weight of the icing was too much for the soft cake and it started to slant.  I think using the cake mix was a big mistake.  Next time I will use a bundt or pound cake recipe.

Meg loves sitting on Grandpa and watching "Enchanted".  We watched it 3 times and had a blast dancing each time.  I think this is one of my most favorite movies in a long time.

First Day Home From St Louis

We didn't get home until late on Tuesday night.  On Wednesday we got Meg settled in and she and I went out to run some errands.  Doesn't she look cute?
So Sassy and Photogenic.
We went to the library and got some books for Meg. Tomorrow the library has Story Time - we will ask Grandpa if he will take Meg - I have to work
  Then we went to the grocery store - we bought one of Dave's favorites - marshmallow treats.  I made a big meatloaf - we love leftovers for sandwiches.  The corn on the cob was so good.
The day went by so fast.  It was fun hanging out with Meg - we are enjoying her so much.  She misses her Dad, Mom and Alex - but we are keeping her busy!  I have to return to work tomorrow so Grandpa and Meighan are on their own.
