Conference Saturday

I love General Conference and usually am parked downstairs in front of the TV with paper and pen in hand.  This year it was listening to the radio while all sorts of things were happening at our house.  Inside it started with this five gallon bucket filled with apples.
Our McIntosh apple tree produced about a bushel of fruit this year.  Bonnie and I already did our applesauce, so the remainder went to Megan.  After quartering them and removing bad spots it nearly filled my pressure canner.  The house smelled so good!  Megan's children love to turn the crank and watch the applesauce come down the chute.



The next project was Bonnie's as she made these cute butterfly cupcakes for Abigail's birthday celebration.

She had great helpers!



While we were busy indoors, Kevin, Justin and Joe were outside assembling the shed.  Finally, it is done!  Thank you for all of your help.



With the beautiful weather, we had dinner on the deck.  We knew the cupcakes would be messy, but little did we know:


Abigail was a bit hesitant to try the cupcakes.

we could get the tray fastened!
