The Great Pumpkin






What a fantastic find today from my lovely friend Cyndi...while reasearching the internet for pumpkin patches, she came across this family owned farm that offers an outstanding deal. For 5 dollars a person, you can enjoy an awesome hayride along with picking a pumpkin of your choosing. Our neighbors, Mike and Dani came along for the ride, and for an easy 25 dollars, we all enjoyed a hay ride and picked out eight pumpkins. Yup...if you're counting at home...three adults and two children garnered EIGHT pumpkins... You may be asking yourself, how is this math possible? Well... one of the pumpkins was actually is a wanna-be watermelon and of course, that is the one William wanted. So...now we have seven pumkins for 5 people. Where did these extra two pumpkins come from? The great pumpkin (Peanuts...Charlie Brown...anyone?) said the twins had to carve their own pumpkins right? So there you have it...two pumpkins for the twins...two pumpkins for the boys plus a fake watermelon and one pumpkin for each adult. Better than paying $.29 per pound at Wal-Mart for almost 64 pounds of pumpkin right?

Happy pre-Halloween...look forward to our next blog of the kids in their costumes.
