What a day is made of

Ethan is our MVP basketball player, while he was making all his shots, the other OLDER kids where complaing of the hoop being to high. It was a hoot to watch the ball go in one after another and another and another. This, so far, is Ethans talant, Dad is pretty proud of his young Micheal J.

Our lives seem to be crazy yet satisfying, Carter and Ethan wake in the morning and can't wait to enjoy the last bit of good weather. What will I ever do when the snow comes? Carter is enjoying pre-school 2 days a week and I think that we both wish it were more. He likes to stay busy, and daily he asks "What are we doing fun today". His choices lately are Lagoon, The aquarium, and The zoo. Moms choices are the park, the library, or invite a friend to come over. Somehow by noon we agree with something I hope canning season is over, I just love it but I'm ready to be done.

12 quarts grape juice

16 quarts peaches

14 quarts tomatoes

14 pints chilli sauce


Jake is doing awsome at school, he is always busy with homework. This new change for us is so uplifting. We have less money but more of everything else, we are happier now than we have been in a long time.

First off, WOW great job on your canning this year as always. Second...if you are tagged, it is the right blogging etiquette to accept the tag! So get to it! Besides that, every hour is your business hour...unless you need your haircut and your family then there's no chance :)
