Good-Bye Summer


I’m so glad to be approaching the end of canning season!  We were very blessed this year to get peaches on both of our trees.  I was able to can 50 quarts of peaches, make two batches of jam, dehydrate (which was not worth the time), eat and give away a bunch of peaches.  I am getting started on my salsa and finishing my tomato soup this week.  I really love having a garden and fruit trees/bushes.  I am hoping that we get more berries next year.  Our strawberries and black berries did amazing but our raspberries were really sparse.  Our kids are picky eaters but they enjoy going out to find things in the garden and help with the harvest.  Emery and Garrett eat all of the fruit and are always ready to help.  It’s been an enjoyable summer, now on to fall!  I love this time of year...
