Memorial Day......

I think we found a new tradition for Memorial Day. My friend Michelle told me about a special coffee cake that her family has for breakfast every Memorial Day. It sounded pretty good so I got her recipe and made it yesterday morning. And it was soooooo good. It is cream cheese coffee cake. We probably won't have it very often, maybe just on Memorial Day because it is made with cream cheese and butter. But we all enjoyed it!

Then we headed out to the yard. We had seen two movies this weekend, and today was about yard work. We had rain for a day and a half. We figured if we didn't go out and weed today, we would regret it. While we were outside we had 2 cranes fly over us. They are huge birds to have fly over you. We see so many birds here geese, ducks, ibis, pelicans, magpies. The five of us made a pretty good dent in the weed population in our yard. I tugged and pulled and this morning my collar bones are sore!

Then we went out to Sonic for a burger. Who needs a cookout? We got tater tots and onion rings!

Not to mention cranberry and cherry limeades!
