So, in our neck of the woods, the media has been talking of this supposed pumpkin shortage.
Ummm….. my father-in-law and I are calling them out on that. Because pumpkins have been growing at the Woodwards’ like it’s going out of style.
You remember my dozen or so pumpkins that grew up as volunteers from last year’s pumpkins?
And, the DOZENS of baby pumpkins that popped up as volunteers at my in-laws’ house?
Steve also planted giant pumpkins and 5 or 6 these came up. I couldn’t help snapping a few photos.
They are so awesome.
(The normal-sized orange pumpkin above is from our yard.)
We’re so good at this, I don’t think we’ll ever spend our hard-earned money on pumpkins again. (Those suckers get expensive.)
And, I’m just thowing this out there… maybe the pumpkin farmers need to take some lessons from us. Or we should just become pumpkin farmers (and this is honestly a dream of mine, so don’t put it down).
What do you think?
I love all the mini babies. I’d have them everywhere if I didn’t have to buy them. And that HUGE one is amazing!
Yeah for pumpkins!!!
Wail till I (finally) post photos of our 3 HUGE pumpkins 🙂 One weights more then the girls!
Yes, you should become pumpkin farmers! Your pumpkins are beautiful. I heard about the shortages as well but frankly I am not seeing it at the pumpkin farms.
Seeing all these pumpkins are making me crave pumpkin seeds:) My grandmother use to heat them in the oven for me. What a treat!
Wow!! Pumpkins everywhere!! Love it!! 🙂
I must tell you Kim that your pumpkins are so cheery! They put a huge smile on my face! Happy Wednesday!
They were charing $60 for pumpkins that size at Safeway and I about passed out. My kids thought it was totally cool – they’d love your huge ones!
Please please please become a pumpkin farmer. We’ll drive out to see you every year for our pumpkin patch trip. Promise.
Love the pumpkins, they look so great against your house! You are just too cute.
if you become a professional pumpkin farmer, i will drive up to your state and buy them all. just sayin.
I can see it now….the Woodwards pumpkin patch. You could have hayrides and cider and apple picking too. And maybe even chickens! And I will come visit!
I guess that is getting a little ahead of myself. But you need to put that pumpkin green thumb to good use!
Holy Pumpkins Batman!
You have arranged them so nicely and I just love all the different colors and textures.
I have always wanted to be pumpkin farmer too. I am trying to convince the husband it would be a great use for some of our acreage. He isn’t buying it yet.
You would make a fantastic pumpkin farmer!
Oh my god, you would totally need overalls and a little piece of straw to chew on… Hehe. Adorable! I would drive three hours to patronize your pumpkin patch.
I’m seriously jealous of all those free pumpkins you guys are just raking in.
We still need to buy our pumpkins. I love the baby pumpkins…so cute!
You do have good lookin’ pumpkins!! They make great decorations!
Ooooo, wee! Those are nice pumpkins!
I think you should become a pumpkin farmer. 🙂
“I will not be jealous, I will not be jealous”… Oh hell why lie I am totally jealous. As a matter of fact I WANT and NEED a garden soooo bad. You know so I can provide food for my family :+) or just grow pumpkins!
I think you should start a business and sell pumpkins! I don’t have any pumpkins this year so I would buy some. I just love those little ones!
I was gonna take the boy to his first punkin patch this weekend but we should clearly just road-trip it out to your house. Love em!
If I want to smile first thing in the morning, I just have to read your blog. Your yard looks FABULOUS with all your decorations. But I’ve actually come to expect nothing less from you! Love you sweetie!
