SEPTEMBER- Canning Peaches & Prunes

I had a bumper crop of peaches and Stanley prunes this year.
 
After canning a case of 12 quart peaches I picked a few Stanley prunes and canned 11 quarts of them.
 
All of this fruit is starting to fill up my food storage shelves!

SEPTEMBER- Canning Raspberries and Drying Plums

My Raspberry patch is producing really good this year.
Today I canned 6 small jars of raspberries and I froze the rest.
 
This is the largest crop of Stanley prunes my tree has ever produced!  They look more like giant grapes all over the tree.
I cut a bunch of them in half and set them out in the sun to start them drying.
My other plum tree is producing a crop of very juicy and sweet plums too!


SEPTEMBER- Canning Jalapeno Peppers

This year when I bought what I thought to be Bell Peppers turned out to be Jalapino Peppers.  So I picked them and canned and froze the peppers.


AUGUST 25-27- Making Peach, Prune and Raspberry Pie

My early peaches are coming on fast so I went and picked them.
Then we made peach pie!
Next we made Peach, Plum and Raspberry desert!
I love harvest time!!!

AUGUST- Smoked Trout and Canning Salsa and Dill Pickles

We went fishing in the High Uintah Mountains and I brought back some trout and smoked them in my smoker.
Then we made some home made salsa.
We chopped up some cucumbers and zukini and made some Pickle Relish.
Next we made some dill pickle spears and dill slices.

JULY- Richard Jackson Reunion at Huntington Beach California

July 20-21 over 20 of us went to the Richard Jackson Reunion in Huntington Beach.
Jonathan was in charge of the reunion this year and it was such a fun reunion.
After spending the day at the beach we all went out for dinner.
Next year in Heber, Utah.

JUNE - Alaskan Cruise

In June 2-10, 2012 I took Jeff and his family and Matthew and Braden on a seven day Alaskan Cruise.
We had a fantastic time seeing the glaciers, whales and the many sites and sounds of Alaska!
We made many memories to last a life time!

Family Park Clean-Up Day

Wow!  We had a wonderful turnout for our annual Family Park Clean-Up Day.
As you can see, we had a lot of family members come and we
mowed, trimmed, and gave the whole park a face-lift and
it is now ready for the 2012 Farnworth Family Reunion!
We ended it with a real fun and tasty BBQ!
THANKS EVERYONE!
