Food Supply for Winter...

I got word that Jason is once again taking care of our food supply for the winter. He shot a deer yesterday and is in the processing of packaging it as I type. I am so excited. I LOVE venison jerky, stew, kabobs, stronganoff....the list goes on and on! For those of you that just see them as cute little animals...remember this is one less to jump in front of you while driving! For those of you that like to hunt I posted some pix (the cartoon deer is for those with sensitive eyes - do not click on the image if you do not want to look at the other pix).

Fall is here!

I know, most of you will think I am crazy but I am excited for fall and cool temperatures! There is nothing better then snuggling on the couch in front of the fire place.

With fall comes harvest...no we don't farm, but we had a great garden. We pickled several jars of okra and jalepenos, tried our hand at salsa making, and had these gianormous green beans. The freezer is stocked with apples, apple sauce, rhubarb and shredded zucchini. I think we might be set for winter.

It is important to note that when I say "we" had a garden. That means Jason did 99.99% of the work. I wonder through, pick a bean or okra here and there and pull some weeds. Jason has the green thumb in the family.

I started my next class, Organizational Behavior. It is exciting as it sounds. It is a "must take". So far it is going well. I have to write another dreaded paper which I am not excited about.

We just got back from Decatur, Texas where Matt and Ashley (Matt is Jason's brother), were just married. The slideshow should be running on the right. The cutie in the Car's jammies is our nephew Jayden.

Until next time...snuggle up!
