Where did the Summer go???

We have been so busy, I think Summer packed up & left without even saying good bye.  School registration was last week and the first day of school started  August 8th.   We have been swimming at our local YMCA, gardening, redo out master bedroom (more from that Summer project to come), crafting and reading all Summer.  

Our Garden has out done itself this year.  We have enjoyed sharing all our produce with our friends, neighbors and family.

Here is a few pictures from July/August:

Those are the Cherry Tomato trees bushes behind Baby J.  Last time we measured they were around 8 foot, crazy people just crazy I tell you!



So last Saturday Dave started picking the garden and tying up all the super heavy plants and Baby J brought in what you see in my sink below.......and then..........



He just keep bringing in bowl after bowl.


After BOWL of tomatoes

I ended up canning 4 quarts of homemade tomato sauce & 4 pints of salsa 

Dad's great little helpers





We gave away tons of cherry tomatoes this weekend to our neighbors and my hubby brought a gallon ziplock of them up to his work Monday.
