Applesauce canning

So my mother in law went to Washington a few weeks ago and came back with a bushel of apples.  Then she went to California this week and told me to do something with them!!!
So, I got all the canning stuff from her house and prepared things so when my husband got home we could can some applesauce!
Half of the excitement was seeing his face after work that he was going to have to help me can!  But he was a trooper!  It was actually very fun!
