September 2011




It's been quite a while since I posted - and that's mostly because our new computer just won't allow me to download from my camera. I've always thought that a post without photos is just boring, Well I guess I'll go with boring - I give up fighting with my computer. The last month has been filled with the regular busy-ness plus lots of canning - peaches, pickles, beans, applesauce, salsa as well as freezing swiss chard, sugar peas and a variety of berries. Each time I'd say I was absolutely done someone would ask if I wanted something they had too much of and I couldn't resist. It's worth it... I just love pulling out a jar of something at dinner and knowing exactly what I'm eating - and it tastes amazing too!!!

This past weekend was somewhat relaxing - CCS had a Fall Break - so our younger two had Thursday till Monday off. The weather was mostly nice - with Monday being rainy & dreary. I "threw out" my back so I felt like an old lady all weekend - blaaaahhh. I was quite proud to have been running consistently for an entire year - twice a week - up to a mile and a half. I had to break that record because of my back but hope to pick it back up so I can run a 5k next month...

This weekend we hope to celebrate our little guy's first birthday - a few special people in his life will come to celebrate with him. Looking forward to putting an online album together for his first year of life. We will miss Lorelle - can't wait for Christmas break.

Way to go, Corrie for all the canning, etc. Not so nice for a sore back, though! Get well soon!

sis, Gerry
