Home-canned Pumpkin Puree

Well, today my sister in law are going to make some pumpkin puree. Fall is the start of my baking season. I love to bake as it is, but there is something about Fall and the Holidays that I just want to bake more than usual. Plus, I get to use all my yummy pumpkin recipes!
 
I was talking to said sister in law saying that I want to make and can my own pumpkin this year, so my delicious baked treats are that much better! She did it last year and said it was super easy to make! We recently took a trip to Southern Utah to visit my parents and my mom had a TON of canning jars that she wasn't going to use, so she said we could take them since we're both into canning (Sweet! Free jars, lids and rings!!!). So we've gotten our pie pumpkins, 4 averaging about 2 lbs each, and we plan to get the canning pot, blenders and food processor, and all other necessary tools to make our own home-canned pumpkin puree.
 
I am just imagining all the yummy things I am going to make with this! Pumpkin roll, pumpkin pie, pumpkin cake... The list is ENDLESS! And thanks to Pinterest, I can find more!
 
Pictures and step by step instructions coming soon.
