The motherboard on my laptop died before I finished sharing my Project52 photos from last year. I’ll finish sharing them by month. That will mean four or five photos per post. Not too terrible. I hate to “bore” you with it; but the journaling I do here is the only journaling I’ll have for these pictures…and I’ll need my blog once I get these things into an album!! Thank you for bearing with me.
Week 35: August 22-28,2010
Annie’s first day of preschool was August 25. She was so excited to finally be there. She has practically grown up at the school – Elizabeth started attending there when Bitsy was only 7 months old. She is one of four girls in the class of ten. Mrs. Heather is her teacher and during the first week of school, it was just Mrs. Heather; however, they quickly realized she needed some help with 6 rambunctious little boys! Ms. Norlie is the assistant teacher.
Week 36: August 29-September 4, 2010
My BFF, Kim, and her mother were responsible for taking care of her uncle’s garden while he traveled the West Coast. He has muscadine vines, which were at their peak and ready for harvest the entire time he was gone. Kim and her momma went up to his property several times a week and brought home bags upon bags upon bags of muscadines. She gave me some and I decided to try my hand at Muscadine Jelly. I packed up everything I needed and headed to my moms – using her kitchen allowed me to spread out and have all the counter space I could possibly need. It went amazingly well! I made 8 half-pints and all but two of them sealed. I left one of those with mom and dad; the other jar went home with me. I thought it was a tad too sweet, but didn’t want to mess with the sugar called for since I’d never made jelly before and wasn’t sure what could be tweaked and what had to stay the same. But next time I make this, I’ll definitely not make it as sweet. Oh, this was also the week of my 45th birthday. Whoo. Hoo. (not)
Week 37: September 5-11,2010
Katherine has been losing teeth like crazy! Now, both of her top teeth are gone (she lost her 2nd one during this week) and her Daddy is calling her Snaggletooth. She is loving the attention, and being a “big girl”.
Week 38: September 12-18, 2010
We had Daddy’s birthday dinner this week, even though his birthday isn’t until next week. Sophie…that dog…she is rotten to the core! She is my daddy’s dog, and she knows it! She’s almost always in his lap.
Week 39: September 19-25, 2010
I bought a couple of pounds of oranges at the grocery store this week. The kids loved them, but Harrison did especially!
