Pomegranate Jelly

I went to a friend's house and made Pomegranate Jelly with Lisa and Charlotte.  I made 4 batches from 1 gallon of pomegranate juice. 

...

Loved it and decided to come home and make another 8 batches! 

Mason was a big helper

We made 45 jars total!!

The kids have been having toast and kept telling me they love grape jelly and weren't sure about pomegranate....well, after trying it....they both LOVE pomegranate jelly and now say it is the best jelly! 

My cute labels!

Semper family Ranch branding day

 The kids were invited with the Semper twins to the Semper family Ranch in Le Grande, California for a branding day with the calves.  

First they watched 

They were gone ~ 12 hours! All day!

Corben and Addison helping give shots to the calves 

Corben then helped Melanie castrate the male calves 

Then they each got to rope a calve and they both did!!! 

Someone at the Ranch took all the above pictures for me!!

Then they came back home and helped the Semper get their new calves into their new pen  

...

The kids LOVED every minute and have talked about it non stop and how they want to do this all the time and go again!

Great friends with the Semper twins

Mason, Addison, Brooklyn and Corben

Making Bath Bombs

If you know this girl...you know she loves a good soak in a warm bath....add in bath bombs that fizzle and change the water colors and she is one happy little girl.

So, anytime we can make something we try!
