I just dropped a lid in the kitchen and Jessie hollered "I'm okay!" from the living room

Two weeks ago. Never thought I'd be so glad to see temps in the 40's & 50's!

Soccer star!




Enjoying the beautiful day at her big sister's soccer game









We have a family of birds living in a birdhouse under our carport (they've never done that before or we wouldn't have stored under the carport). Jessie asked me what a bird poop spot on my car was and thought it was hysterical when I told her what it was.

When I picked her up from school, she said, "Is that bird poop on your car?" I said yes and she said, "That's silly. They should use their birdy potty."

I smiled and asked where she thought their birdy potty was. She responded, "In their birdy bathroom in their birdy house." There was an implied "duh" in there.

3 cups flour
1 - 8 oz package cream cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla

Cream margarine and cream cheese together. Add sugar and cream together well. Add 2 eggs, then 2 more eggs. Add half of flour, than last 2 eggs. Add last cup of flour and vanilla.

This is my absolute favorite pound cake, but it's so rich that I usually have it just once a year. :-)
