Canning, canning and more canning.....

Decided to help the kids out a little this year and do some canning for them. Dad and I did about 100 qts. of applesauce, 25 qts of Salsa, 19 qts. of stewed tomatoes, 24 pts.of apple butter, 50 jars of strawberry jam, 20 pts of various combinations of fruit jams, 10 pts. pepper jelly, 22 qts. of pickled beets and 6 qts of strawberry syrup. We also dried about 22 qts. of dried apples. UMMMM It has been fun working side by side with dad as we have done this!!! The smell in the house has been amazing and just the greatest feeling of accomplishment when we fall into bed at night... Here are some pics we took of our beautiful "creations".
