Canning and Birthday Presents

Hey everyone, wanted to take a moment and share with you guys our first or my first canning experiance.

Arturo and I canned 50 pounds of tomatos with my friend Sarah Lilly on Sunday. This was my first time canning...it was not as bad as I thought it would be, it just took time. Here are a few pictures and these are taking with my new camera! I got it this afternoon, and have been playing all evening!

Arturo and I with one of our beautiful jars!

Another one...

Three of the 12 we took home!!

I think that we are going to do some peaches and make some pickles...next year Arturo, says we are going to have a HUGE garden so we can can our own produce. What fun!! I think...

My Mom sent me this great mosaic mirrow for my Birthday...I love it. It is so cool. She is a pretty talently lady. LOVE YOU, Mom!

We had a great weekend, it was crazy busy. Saturday we cleaned and got the house ready for our party. We had about 25 folks over Saturday night. It is was great fun! Then Sunday we canned most of the day. Needless to say we are pretty tired today.

My running goal for this week is 9 miles for the week... I did not run this morning so that means I have to catch up tomorrow morning. I think I will do 2 tomorrow, 3 Wednesday, 2 Thursday and 3 on Friday. That will get me 10. Wish me luck!!

Have a great week everyone.

LOVE YOU - the Pacheco's
