Welcome To Our Blog



Hello Family and friends! I have decided that Jeff and I are so out of touch with a lot of people in our lives, and there's just no excuse for that. So, here's the solution! I'm not exactly new to the blogging world, I have a MySpace, but I've never had a spot that is just dedicated to my thoughts or the happenings in our little life. So please stop by every now and again so you can see how Jeff and I are doing. Jeff might even jump on here from time to time.

Homebrewing

A couple years ago Jeff picked up a new hobby. I had never heard of homebrewing before, and when he first told me he was interested in trying it out, I thought it was gonna be one of those things that he does once, and then never does it again. I was wrong. He's kept at it and before long our spare bedroom was full of homebrewing paraphenalia. We even used his second batch of beer as a wedding favor for our guests. It was a big hit and even now people are asking me when he's gonna make some more so they can put their order in.
This is his third batch so far, and there is so much involved in making the beer. You don't actually get to taste the beer for about a month after the first day that you start the process. Here are some pictures of them bottling the beer. It happens about two weeks after the beer is 'cooked'. I will update again in another two weeks after we get to taste the finished product.
Below are photos of everyone filling up the beer bottles, and a picture of our favor at the wedding

Putting the caps on.

That is such a neat idea for wedding favors! Always fun to try new beer too!
