Nice, Relaxing Weekend...Yah, Right!

Mike said last weekend that he wanted to go to Utah for the BYU-AF game. I told him that he should go and enjoy. I surely would miss him but could use some time housebound. My mind was reeling with the prospect of hanging out in jammies all day with Caid, getting some scrapbooking done, working in the garden, catching up on All My Children....

Not long after, my mom called and asked me to do some canning with her. Well I of course agreed, loving domestic stuff like that. So I told her I would, so long as I had some of the weekend to relax. Let me just say, we ended up picking all our own produce first, then prepped it and then canning and freezing it, ALL! IN! ONE! DAY! So much for All My Children. It was really fun! We put up/stored 18 quarts of tomatoes, 60 ears of corn, 50 pounds of potatoes, 35 pounds of onions, 15 pounds of peppers, and more. My sweet dad entertained Caiden all day. So now Caiden knows how to make a running tackle and spit. Lovely, huh? Caiden got so upset when my dad left to go running that he sat at the door waiting for him to get back. Gotta love Grandpas!!!
