Pickles

For all you facebookers-I don't know if you got the joke about some giant cucumbers on our front porch? I'm sure it sounded a little dirty... but none-the-less, we have an interesting couple in our branch and they were so kind to bring us several cucumbers. So, I had to do something with them. While everyone has finished their peach canning...I have accomplished six jars of pickles. First time I've ever done this and I'd have to say they look a little scary but actually smell divine! Thanks to my sis in law Laura for always having the recipe I need. Can't wait to try these things!

Zeb's Birthday

For Zeb's birthday, his only request was to order a live, 7 lb lobster from the east coast. I wasn't really sure he would do it but next day air it was at our front door. This picture of Zeb is priceless! It makes me laugh out of love to see how happy he gets. I'm so glad I married someone who makes me laugh nonstop and has such a spontaneous personality.
Happy Birthday Zeb!!
