Peaches and Peaches (some are even fruit)



What a Peach!











As As the photo's will show - I'm talking of peach fruit trees and "peachie" grandchildren!!!











Gayle and I love to watch Chloe and Hunter in the garden - children make it fun! Gardening started out being a hobby but now we grow so much that canning could be a chore if it didn't taste so good in the winter!




I anticipate lots of cobblers this year as the orchard we planted about six years ago, has produced some nice fruit this year. The fruits are small, but juicy and sweet.




You will also notice lots of canning of pickles from cucumbers, cherry jam from my good friend Bev's cherry tree and everything else is from our garden.

~She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.~ Proverbs 31:27-28

How exciting is this?

I am so glad that I added this "guestbook" link to my page! I have been so excited this week to actually "see" fellow scrappers that have been in swaps and online groups that I participate in..... It sure makes people see more real when you can place a face with them.

That probably sounds pretty simple to most of you computer guru's out there, but I still have trouble making the time to post to my blog. Maybe if I didn't try to do so many things in one day, I could become more focused.??? My dear hubby has this "thing" about gardening for the past few years and now is the time to harvest. He does the planting and picking and helps me do the canning also. Really pretty neat if you think about it. I use to count the number of jars that we canned, but we do so much that I gave that chore up!

Lately I have been in some awesome swaps with cards and atc's [:)] and it is fun to watch as everyone's creativity (including mine) grows with practice. If you have never participated in a swap - please try them!

No pictures right now - have to go run errands !

Have a Super Day!
