We enjoyed the weekend with Joe, Crystal, and 4 friends from H-burg.

Ed & I also made applesauce with the bees. They (hundreds of bees) wanted all the applesauce they could get. It was rather crazy.

My one and only ground cherry pie for this year. The plants came up in my garden, so I kept gathering the ground cherries until I had enough for a pie.

Monday, my sisters and I got together to scrapbook our Florida trip.

Our daily routine must be rather mundane as we had to find something to do to take pictures to add to our blog. We went to the Dariette for lunch and split a nightmare and it was worth every calorie! We wanted to go before they close for the winter, which should be sometime soon.

After watching the Indians win the division championship, we went for a bike ride. We decided to go around the block and call it quits, knowing our sitter downers will thank us. They don't make the bike seats like they used to!

Tonight we decided to enjoy a fire on the terrace since it was so nice. Took our popcorn outside to eat, as you can see on the pictures. Tomorrow begins a busy week with parent teacher conferences two nights, church meeting, sisters' night, and faculty campfire and singing.

These pictures are from my flower gardens. The latest heat and my going back to school have now changed the appearance, but at one time, this is how it looked.

Another weekend

Weekends are always appreciated! This morning I had breakfast out with Mattie Marie, then I picked tomatoes. This should be the last of them other than a few to eat. I also picked up groundcherries--should have enough to make a pie sometime soon. :)
Dad & I made tomato stew and canned 10 quarts. That's all for canning except applesauce.

This afternoon, we took the kitties and mamma over to Angela & Todd Zuerchers. They wanted some tame ones. How could be deprive them!?

Tonight we went to Central's soccer game to watch Brandon. They played CVCA and were outplayed. CVCA had a lucky shot that was tapped in and we lost 1-0. Brandon was quite busy.
Tomorrow is MYF cafe and if it isn't raining, we may go to the fair.
