Catechism
Pastor Paul gave Isaac a copy of the First Catechism put to music for us to listen to and think about for Sunday school. Isaac especially loves the first song that goes "Who-oo-oo-oo made you?" and the children answer "God!". We are going to have to work on the message though cause Isaac asks for it as the "owl song." :)

Grandmother's Two Coo Apricot Preserves
15 minutes at Larriland farms yielded 16 lbs of apricots. We did have the help of two expert pickers: Caroline Conner and Meredith Toering.
Caroline called Grandmother Conner (Isaac's Great Grandmother) to get her apricot preserve recipe: apricots, sugar, and patience. Grandmother's preserves are the best!
Here we are washing, pitting and cutting.
Matt almost got himself kicked out of the kitchen for wanting to take too scientific of an approach with something that was clearly an art. :)
One of the two pots...
When Isaac eats something he loves or is excited about he coos. His first taste of the preserves earned two coos!
Yummy!
And as a bonus: Isaac's first (and I'm sure not last) marker disaster.
