Mom begins the last of her 80's this year
She wanted a sample of my work
since she never canned
ever
And I am going to carry on my bags.
Even if you are very nice
and have a global entry
they won't let you take 
your mother some home canned things.

So....I improvised

Cherry, blueberry and strawberry syrups 

with my makeup and toothpaste.

Love the stand up baggies!

I'll spend one day in Phoenix looking at 

Air b n b for next summer

when all 12 of us come for Mom's 

big 90 party!

My bag is packed for Phoenix. 

Changing out for West Point won't take much
Minus swim suit. Plus raincoat.
Wash and go.

 I am hauling this box for the party
One little girl is going to be doll housed soon!



I need to get at least 20 jars of peaches this year.... it will be a squeeze in time.

And I need to make some beach plans 
for the grands staying with us
as to not drive my husband insane.

August will be here before I know it!
