The Great Pumpkin

Today was the day for picking Victor's wonderful pumpkin that we have been watching grow all summer long. I think he checked on it every day! Of the handful of seeds that he planted, one vine grew; and of the many blossoms on that vine, only one produced a pumpkin. But what a pumpkin!

No, it's not yet Halloween. We got Victor's costume at Wal-Mart yesterday, and today he just wanted to "try it on." He ended up wearing it all day, and I didn't say anything, because he loves it so much, and besides, I figured we were getting more for our money!

This gourd is heavy!

Off to the garage to await its transformation into a

jack-o-lantern!

Coming Soon: Halloween!
