Apples!
Yesterday we picked over 10 gallons of apples from our transparent apple tree! And there's still more up there! We made a whole bunch of applesauce, 6 pies, and I'm straining juice to make apple jelly. It has been a family affair with Colin and Kristina peeling, and I have been cutting and preparing. Owen helped pick the apples and Brant is always ready with the next apple to pass to the peeling squad :)

Hi I'm Katrina, wife to Colin, mom to Kristina, Brant, and Owen. This blog was created to keep family and friends updated on the goings on in our lives ... the joys and challenges of raising three children. You will often see me posting about Down syndrome awareness as our son Brant has Down syndrome.

Isn't summer fun. Too bad its too short. It seems that summer goes byu way to fast! There's so much to do and everything seems to come at the same time. This week apples, next week raspberries and then the blackberries start! Mom
Oooh I can't wait for the blackberries! And raspberries too. Colin is hoping to get a flat of raspberries for me to make into jam this week or next! I'm wondering, do I have to do the parrafin wax seal on jams? I've never made canning jam before!
This is awesome. Love how the whole family got involved. Making lasting memories and from the sounds of it yummy stuff!
