soccer, football and tomatoes

Stewing tomatoes

 

It is a  Dittenber family tradition to stew tomatoes in the fall.  Darren and his mom have been doing it for years.  This year our friend Tracy wanted to help so she could have the "secret" recipe for the salsa.  Pay attention to the nice apron Darren wears...he has worn this apron every year!!

Darren and Tracy working in the kitchen.

 This is Grandma Dittenber helping teach Blake.  Blake got to help, nothing like passing traditions on to the next generation.

This is a great picture of Colleen and Darren, the tomato and salsa "specialists."

Oops, it happened again.  At 12:30 last night we were toilet-papered again,  I was a nice mother and let Blake clean it up at 8:00 this morning.  :)  :)

Here he is cleaning it up.

Yesterday Ben had his football game.  They didn't win but had fun!!  Here is Darren having a little chat with the referees.

Here is Ben with an awesome block!! He was in the plays that we got two of our touchdowns!!! Ben is number 87.

Look at these boys heading off the field, pretty intimidating, huh??

My football player!!

Blake's game was on Thursday so I thought I'd add a few pictures of him.  They won.  Blake got 2 goals.  Cool!!

I will always be his biggest fan!

   I will always be ALL of my kids biggest fan!!
