What a weekend....

Some friends called us and said they were done canning tomatoes, but there were still a lot left to be picked, so we could have them if we wanted to pick them.  So off we go to pick tomatoes.

 

 We made a donation to the school and used their huge stoves and had about six burners going at all times. :)  We got the whole family involved.

After 14 hours of canning - 7 hours one day and 7 hours the next

Grand total = 71 quarts!

I'm smelling a lot of Chili, Spaghetti, Lasagna, Veggie Soup etc.......in the next year!

Then we had a family baseball game.  Miss Ashlyn decided it was not a priority in her game to wear her skirt, but it was to wear a bonnet.  What do kids THINK?  That was short lived, but I couldn't resist this picture of her batting the ball on Keith's glove - and look at Keith's face......

*Note: No members of the family were injured during this activity*

Also, we have a little hen that has decided to sit on her eggs.  We are very excited about that. :)

Thanks for stopping by.  We LOVE hearing from you. :)
