My mom's group got together for a full day of canning. 7 moms, 4 infants, 7 toddlers, a preschooler and later in the day 2 elementary school kids.....I think I'm getting everyone in the count. Lots of crazy kid chaos, friendly catching up chats, discipline tips and good times.

With so many people we had to spill outside. Deborah and Julie on kid duty with Devon, John Paul and Matthew.
