Raspberry Jam (Day 9)
One thing I wanted to do while I was at home was learn to make jam. Not just any ol' jam...jam made from raspberries from my dad's garden. But the cousins routinely pick those clean so we headed out to the Richeson's Farm - which I'm always up for anyway. Ron and Karren are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet and that farm has lots and lots of memories for me since my parents have been friends with them since I was about 2.

Ooh, I hope you got to bring some of your hard (and delicious) work home with you! I love homemade jam, there's nothing like it.
How fun and what a cute photo of you and Cooper. Allen and I used to make jam all the time - strawberry, apricot/pineapple and raspberry - I loved it! Nothing like those beautiful jars all lined up with their gorgeous fruit in them. It just always amazed me how much sugar goes into jam though. But we love homemade jams!
What a fun experience to have with your kids.
It will be awesome on those fabulous crepes Mark makes too!

What fun! I learned jam making from Kym although I'd have to bone up on it if I wanted to do it again.
Now don't take this the wrong way but I think you resemble Diane Lane in this picture. And I mean that as a compliment. A young Diane Lane. It's the updo, I think.
I am sooo jealous! I love raspberry anything, but especially in jam! I'm thinking about trying to make some apricot freezer jam! I'll let you know if I actually do it!
Kris you look so pretty :)
