It's that time of year again...


You'll all be pleased to know that I watched White Christmas for the first time this season today! And those of you who know me well know that this will be the first of many Sunday afternoons spent in such a productive manner! Must be that chill in the air getting me in the Christmas spirit! I just love it!

My New Hobby

Well, I don't really know if it qualifies as a hobby, but canning sure is fun! I recently bought a pressure canner, and have loved canning some things in it.
My Mom reminded me about how I used to make fun of her for taking pictures of food she had made, but now I understand! I am quite proud of myself!


Applesauce.... (SOooo much better than store-bought) I am going to do more this weekend.

Pinto Beans.....( It costs a lot less to buy them dried, but with them canned now they are convenient and ready-to-use :)


Green Beans ( I only did 3 quarts becuase this was my first time using my canner, and if they didn't seal, or if I ruined them in some other way, I didn't want to waste a ton!

General Conference

Hey everyone! I am excited about general conference today and tomorrow! I was doing a little last-minute searching for coloring pages to help keep my kids entertained and I found a great coloring book that you can print out for little kids. Here's the link:
