just a few apples to peal!

(we actually weighed them....approx. 150 pounds!)

aubrey is in the center of the action!

here she is directing giving out orders and making "rules" on how the apple pealing process will take place!

what fun would the day be if we didn't do a little "bobbing for apples"!

then finally the finished product!

12 pints of apple butter pictured here.

8 bags of apple sauce was put into the freezer

5 - 1 gallon bags of pie filling was made

AND.....not a dent made in the baskets of apples......so, guess i'll be making more applesauce tomorrow!

i love how easy these little blocks went together. i will differently be making more sometime soon.

A CONVERSATION WITH A FIRST GRADER.

so today aubrey and i had a conversation. i am always trying to start a dialog with her on...how was your day....what did you learn at school....did you have fun at the birthday party you went to.....and so on and so forth......

today i asked her if she heard any bad words at school? no.....i haven't she said.....so that could mean A. she hasn't or B. i wouldn't tell you if i had.....

then i asked her if she knew any bad words......silence....

then....well i do know one....at this point i simply waited and thought i'd let her tell me if she wished....

is it okay if i tell you she says? well, sure, i won't be mad this one time....

well i won't say it but i will tell you what it rhymes with grass.

okay....plenty good! i guess that means i need to get off my "grass" and share the story on my blog!
