Canning, Fall, Christmas?

Several things have gone on lately...

First...Canning season began.  I made salsa, sauce, marinara, juice, whole tomatoes, chili sauce, and applesauce (think that's all...).  My family has blessed me with different veggies and more recently apples by a wonderful sister who was willing to get me some and bring 6 hrs across state! :)  (Thanks Jul!)

Second...fall came.  This is my FAVORITE time of year.  I love to see how God changes the seasons and to me Fall is the most beautiful with the leaves changing.  Spring is second after a dreary winter...it's refreshing to see the green!  We had some friends from KY visit too - we went to the Strip, Primanti's, geocaching, etc..funfilled weekend with Dave and Jeff!

Third...Christmas.  Yes, Christmas in October!  Jason & Kerby were home for a short time - we miss them dearly! and we celebrated Christmas with them while they were here.

Next, comes Thanksgiving.  Since Mom and Dad are going to Costa Rica with Jason & Kerby I decided to host Thanksgiving at our place for those that could come.  I will have a total of 9 people here and hope I make enough food and don't forget anything!  I'm starting to make my list of what I need and what I'm making!  Also, looking for some cute things to make to "dress up" the tables.

Here are a few pictures...
