Grapes and Grape Juice

Yesterday my Aunt Holly, Aunt Jeny, cousin Shannon and I had a fun-filled day of grape juice making! We started out the day by going to Aunt Julie's house and picking grapes, there were a lot, and I am not a fan of spiderwebs! It was still fun though. We got so many grapes, something like 30 quarts??? Holly remembers not me. While we waited for the grapes to juice we had a lot of fun playing the Wii fit, and Boom Blox. Oh good times....

Kade was very patient the whole time. He got a little sad at the end, but then he fell asleep.
I particularly loved the little mini-clusters of grapes. They were cute!
Shannon enjoyed helping pick....I mean eat the grapes!

The almost final product. These are all our buckets filled to the rim in grapes and they smelled delicious, and tasted delicious, and the grape juice is also delicious!

Mmmm we had a grape vine growing up. Nothing beats home grown grapes!

Did you smash it with your feet? And more importantly, have you seen the youtube video of the lady doing the grape stomping?
