PLAYING CATCHUP





It seems that lately things have been so busy with my little family that I have to choose very carefully what I spend my time on, obviously blogging hasn't been the top priority. I've been so busy with our garden this year.
preserving all these wonderful fruits and veggies is so much work, and yet as I see my food storage grow and my shelves fill with wonderful, delicious, healthy food.......
it just makes me smile
Here is taste of what I've been up to:
canning beans, dill pickles, chokecherry syrup, raspberry and strawberry jam, peaches and pears, SALSA, relish, tomatoes, apple sauce
AND
blanching beans, peas, squash, zuccini and peppers,
AND
making fruit leather










Here are some shots of summer fun, its hard to believe Winter is around the corner!

Here is what he posted about the experience: This is Will Boehme, I met him while I was serving my mission in Lethbridge, Alberta Canada. I had the opportunity today to take Will into the MTC today so that he can prepare for his own mission in Scottsdale, AZ. This is special because August 14th marks another year gone that I began and ended my own mission. . . and it seems like yesterday. I will never forget the experiences I had or the people, like Will and his family, that I met. Amazing how time flies. Good lucky buddy! It really was a tender mercy for us to know that Will wasn't alone as he entered the MTC.  He had a friend who really went the extra mile to feed him, calm his nerves and put a loving arm of encouragement arou

A few pictures for our Idaho friends of Southern Alberta. more wide open spaces wheat field and rainbow The Boehme farm....where we now live The Boehme Farm...at sunset *We moved home to Lethbridge, Alberta Canada on 08.02.2008!* We loaded up the UHAUL on Friday, Aug. 1st, and did all the cleaning in one evening. Thank you to each of you for your help with that crazy day! No one can move on their own and we felt so blessed for all the hands that helped in so many ways. We stayed at the Campbells home overnight (thanks guys for all the memories) and then got up the next morning and were on our way by 9:00am. The trip was long and tiring, but as we crossed the border into Canada I was filled with a wonderful peaceful feeling that the timing was right and that after 5 years of being away. . .we were home to stay.
