The Pumpkin Patch!

Gene has been watching and pampering his babies (pumpkins) for weeks and today he declared "I think we better pick them!" So tomorrow the grandkids are coming, after church, and we are having our annual pumpkin pick! This is Gene's 3rd year of having a pumpkin patch, and I must say it is probably his best ever! This year we didn't start the plants in the house, we just planted the seeds in the ground about the 1st of June! He has about 35 pumpkins and I am pretty sure that at least 2 will tip the scales at over 100 lbs! I am pretty excited!

So tomorrow, the camera and the scales will make the trek to the patch. I will show you pictures of them tomorrow night and then I am going to use some of my new fall stash to scrapbook them! See you tomorrow night!

Make the day a good one!

Wow, Chris, congrats to Gene! Can't wait to see your photos. I love seeing Fall stuff. Down here on the Third Coast, we don't even get Indian Summer until almost November. I have to live vicariously, LOL.
