Random... So like me!

Sooooooo.... What to say... Or type!

Well, I have been canning like crazy this past week and I'm soooooo thrilled! I did some dill pickles, bread n butter pickles, relish, red beats and peaches! I am planning to do more pickles, red beats, peaches, applesauce, pears, green beans, grape juice and some pear juice :) busy... Busy... BUSY! All this canning get tiring but I keep telling myself that this winter I will be very thankful that I won't have to go to the grocery store in the freezing weather :) that's my hope!

Here are some cute stories that happened this week :)

Miss Rhya has a knack for climbing... I don't know where she gets it but it's definitely NOT from me! (I'm rather clumsy!)
While I was moving the freshly canned pickles from the counter to the table to free up some space, I noticed rhya was playing with her "walker". I had it placed right near the table, which looking back was pretty stupid! Anyway... I walked around the counter and began to wash dishes. About 2 minutes later I hear jars hitting the floor! I whirled around to find my sweet, innocent, little angel trying to climb from the table to the counter! I freaked out, ran around the counter and though..."wait.... I neeeeeeed to take a picture!" so I grabbed my camera and snapped a few shots before I rescued her from the table.(she didn't think she needed rescued but... How do you convince an 11 month old any different)

I also learned the Rhya does not like spiders! I wonder where she learned that! Ha ha ha! There was a small spider hanging out in it's web near our living room door. Rhya would not go near the door and would turn around and grab my leg if we got near it! So finally Alan disposed of the spider and Rhya slowly went to check it out. She peered around the corner and when she saw that the spire wasn't there, she acted normal! Weird, I know!

Tomorrow Alan and I are going away for our 2 year anniversary early. We going to tour some museums and just relax. It has been so long since we were able to go anywhere together and now we are finally able to get away! I'm so excited and yet I know I'm going to miss my little munchkin :( Even though not an extravagant vacation, Alan and I are so blessed to have people to care for the animals and take care of rhya while Alan and I have a day to ourselves :)
