I love fall! Everything cools off and the air seems crisp and clear. Blake and I have always tried our best to be "gardeners" but we always seem to fail at some aspect. One year we planted a garden, but it didn't grow much. The next year, we planted and it grew, but we didn't harvest! This year, we beat our record. We planted, and most of it grew and we harvested most of what grew! In addition, we even went and bought peaches and with the help of Woodlands and Andersons (friends of ours), we canned 162 quarts of peaches! This picture shows all our hard work (minus Monica's share). We learned that it is way more fun to "can" with friends! In fact, it was so much fun, we also did salsa with our tomatoes and we did grape juice. (Thanks Alison, for doing most of the work on that one!) It sure feels good to have something on our shelves! Who knows, maybe next year we'll actually pick the beans we grow...
