Canning Fruit

We had a fun weekend. Grandma Steury boxed up a bunch of grapefruits and tangerines from Grandpa's trees in their yard, and shipped them to us so they wouldn't go to waste. Talk about delicious! There were way too many for us to eat before they rotted, so we decided to try our hand at canning fruit.

Here's Christopher, helping sort the tangerines from the grapefruit...nope...just kidding...more like helping to soften them up as he threw them on the floor! Thanks for the "balls" Gigi!















Our finished product - looks delicious!
















Sunday we enjoyed the afternoon playing outside. We took Christopher to the playground at the nearby elementary school. He loved the "side" "sing" and "paying" in the tunnel. Then we walked to Babu and Nana's house - Christopher rode up high on Daddy's shoulders, pointing at all the "tas cans" and "woks" (trashcans and rocks). It was refreshing to be outside in the brisk air and enjoy lots of laughter as a family.
