Harvesting Pumpkins



The weather this fall has been so wonderfully warm.  The kids have been able to be outside and play everyday afterschool.  In fact the weather has been so nice that we are still enjoying our dinners out on the back patio.  I just love eating outdoors, don't you?

The kids wanted to grow their own pumpkins this year and we noticed the vines started to die back in September.  We were hoping to keep them on the vine as long as possible so that they could make it to Halloween at the end of October.  Well, they made it as long as they could and today, we are harvesting the pumpkins before the backyard critters start munching on them.  So here they are...and into the cool garage they go, fingers crossed they survive a few more weeks!!

3 Things I'm grateful for:
1)  Long warm days and nights
2)  Room in the garden to grow pumpkins
3)  3 cute adorable children
