Dill Pickle Spears
Yesterday my mom, sister, and I canned some dill pickle spears! Here are some pictures!

| Cucumber spears |
 |
| Garlic |
 |
| Dill |
 |
| Dill goes in each jar. |
 |
| Garlic also goes in each jar. |
 |
| Waiting for the water to boil. (This pic was taken when we were heating up the water the first time; we had to heat it up again because we had to wait to get more vinegar to finish the pickles!) |
 |
| Boiling the jar lids so that the rubber will get soft |
 |
| This is when we were putting the juice mixture into the jars. |
 |
| The jars are all filled now with cucumbers, dill, garlic, and a liquid mixture. |
 |
| Some of the jars in the canning pot |
 |
| Sometimes jars will break while in the pot (as shown in above picture). Only one of the jars broke! |

Hello!
Hello!!!! I haven't done a post in a little while!
Well, in an earlier post I mentioned our garden. Our strawberries are pretty much done for now. We have gotten lots of yellow squash and zucchini and are still getting more! Fruits and veggies visible but still growing are: watermellon, lemon cucumber, cucumber, and tomatoes! We also have onions, but they are small.
School is still going. I only have a little bit of Language Arts and some History left for this past school year and then it's on to my Senior year!!
As some of you know, I got nerve damage to a nerve in my leg last month. My physical therapist said that it (the nerve or a muscle maybe) is getting stronger. It's going to be a slow process to get back to normal again. But don't think that i'm crippled; I can walk. :)
So, what all have you guys been doing this summer? I know some of you have graduated; are you excited about no more school this coming fall or going to college?
Here are some pictures!!!!!!!!! Enjoy and have a great week!

Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, I haven't really been blogging a whole lot!!!! How about I write about a bunch of things in this one?
Well, I still have school, but I have finished Economics!!!!!!!!!!!! And I "might" be done with most of my school sometime in June!
Anyway, my goat, Rosie, might be expecting! I'm not sure though. We have tried to breed her before, but she never got pregnant, so maybe this time she is pregnant! We'll probably be giving the buck back, to the guy that was letting us borrow him, sometime this month or else the females, if they got pregnant after May, would have kids in the winter!
The lilac trees are already starting to get their flowers, and our maple tree has leaves on it!! We didn't get too many daffodils this Spring, maybe because of the cold weather and the snow. And we are also getting those yellow flowers, that still come up from the ground even after you mow the grass, known as Dandelions!!!!!!!!!!!! Hahaha!
We are doing a garden this year and have already started some plants inside and in the garden. This year we are going to do some plants that we didn't do last year. Some of them are: Watermelon, radishes, pepper, and purple hull peas. We did corn last year and the year before, and it didn't really work out that well! We probably let it sit too long! But, zucchini and yellow squash do pretty well when we plant it!
Isaiah, who is 1 1/2 years old, is walking around now! He isn't saying very many things but he does do some animal noises. He has several teeth, although some of them are not fully in yet!
Anyways, there is my post for now. Maybe i'll post more often!
Enjoy the sunshine and green grass!!!
