Canning More Applesauce

We made the applesauce two days before we got around to canning it. Since it was cold from being in the fridge, we heated it up so that we wouldn't bust any jars.

Filling the jars.

Checking for air bubbles.

Ready to go in the water bath!

All done!

We canned sixteen quarts!

Lots of jars dated and ready for storage!

These chickens need their wings clipped! =)

December 7th...

Every year, on December 7th, the four oldest have watch Tora Tora Tora.

This year, we girls got to see it! It took a while to get everyone upstairs, but once we were all up there, wrapped in blankets and ice cream in hand, we enjoyed the historic tale of the attack on Pearl Harbor. I learned a lot and was inspired to do more reading on WWII!

The golden ring and the jewel.

Happy 7th (Belated) Birthday, Lydia!

69 Years Ago...

" Those who trust in the LORD
Are like Mount Zion,
Which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
So the LORD surrounds His people
From this time forth and forever." - Psalm 125:1-2

December 1st!

It's December at last!

Last night, Daddy broght boxes of Christmas decorations down from the attic and Momma is unpacking and decorating. Christmas records are playing on Daddy's record player. I've been reading different blogs about jolly Christmassy stuff. Now I'm in the mood for Christmas! =)

Happy December to you all!

First Snow!!!
