pumpkin picking

 

Oliver and Grandpa finally got to pick the pumpkin. 

 

the pumpkin fairy

Last June on my 365 blog I posted about the pumpkins we had buried in the flower garden. They were flourishing. Well all those beautiful vines yielded just two pumpkins. Unfortunately one of those rotted. The other was visited by the pumpkin fairy. She crept into the garden one evening and scratched Oliver's name in the pumpkin. The pumpkin is ready, we are just waiting for Grandpa to come home and help us pick it.
