Roasting Marshmallows On An Open Fire

P1030854 Autumn had wanted to take Papa & Mimi to see the musical tree last night, but Papa was sick w/ the flu so it had to be postponed until tonight.  We ate dinner and then headed over to the tree.  We brought some marshmallows and a telescoping stick to roast them.  It didn’t work super well b/c in order to get them close enough to the fire they kept lighting on fire (you can see Dad holding one that’s on fire over the grate).

P1030855 I noticed a cute cupcake store across the street that I have never noticed before, so I had to go over and check it out.  I LOVED the pink & black polka dot chairs.  I also liked the cupcakes pictures & centerpieces.  I got a vanilla flavored one b/c if the vanilla one is good then the others usually are too.  I also got a coconut cream one, b/c I love me some coconut.

P1030857 They were good, but definitely not worth the $3.99 I paid for each of them.  I made sure to get some forks to share w/ everyone.  Autumn would go dance and run around the Christmas tree when music was playing and then she would come and have a bite of cupcake when she was taking a break.

P1030858We sat by the fire to stay warm, but it was mostly for looks b/c it didn’t produce very much heat.  I am glad we had this flannel blanket that Aunt Sandy made b/c it kept us warm.  After this, Autumn & I went to WalMart to return some things I had gotten for the kitchen but my cabinets aren’t tall enough.  We ran into 3 different families from church.  Then we came home and I put Autumn to bed and unpacked some more.  I got a LOT accomplished tonight, which feels good.
