The General Lee

Off to the races....we had great fun at our cub scout pack meeting. Each cub scout had to make their own race car out of cardboard. We decided to make our car "The General Lee". Nothings faster then the "General Lee"!!! Joe ended up in a tie for first place with another scout.

The joy of canning part 2

My most favorite treat to have is a jar of home canned pears. No store canned pear even comes close to a home canned pear. Each year I increase the amount by about a dozen more with my hollow leg boys. This year Rosie and I canned 43 quarts.

Last weekend of summer

I wish I had another month of summer. It all went by way too fast. We spent our last weekend up at Mt. Hood at a campground. It wasn't in our plan to go there at first but with the forecast of rain, we needed a place with something to do indoors. Although it was a quick trip it was really fun!

First Day of School

I can't believe summer is over and school is starting. Jacob is now in high school, "B" is now in middle school and Rosie and Joe are 4th and 5th graders. I hope I can manage to juggle 3 different schools this year.
