Our family has an apple tree at the end of our driveway.
This year, our tree was overflowing with apples.
Our apple tree had well over twice as much edible apples than what is shown above. Amazing!
My boys, some friends, and I willingly picked and donated some of the apples to the Relief Society. Last week, our Relief Society learned how to can peaches and applesauce. It was SO much work. Each lady went home with a can of peaches and a can of applesauce.
The day after the activity, our friends, Liz and Dennis, came over to help us can more applesauce.
Tyler's job was picking the apples.
My job was boiling the apples.
Brian was in charge of the apple gutter.

wow! that is great.
I know it's a lot of work, but so worth it, really!!!! Canning isn't the most fun, but for me it's the memories I have spending time with my mom or everything that surrounds it like FALL...My favorite season...maybe this is why
Next year I will plan to be there for the apple harvest!!!!
