the great pumpkin



We took Lucy pumpkin picking today. We tried to go to Lookout Farm but they had already sold out of pumpkins. [Well, actually, they still had a few left sitting on hay bales, but what fun is that??] Fortunately, on the way there, we spotted the Hills Congregational Church's annual charity Pumpkin Patch Sale! What a find that was — we all had a great time choosing our pumpkins. Lucy even picked out her own pumpkin and stuck to her guns when I suggested she find one that had a stem – she would not be swayed. [We bought her that stemless pumpkin.]

Lucy also enjoyed the wagon-ride as I pulled her [and our three pumpkins] all around the "pumpkin patch."

Finding great pumpkins and giving a little something back — isn't that what Halloween is all about?
