making applesauce

We were very excited to tryout canning for the first time this week. For some reason I have been very afraid if it, the unknown I suppose, but it turned out well and my fear is no longer there. It was simple, just rather a production since we are learning. William did most of the work as you can see from the pictures. We had hoped for many jars, but ended up with only two. We may try again as we still have lots of apples, although we have been making a baked apple treat every day.

What I loved most is that both boys wanted to help and we all had fun in the kitchen together.
