The Perfect Pumpkin

Michaela Byrd and I headed off to our favorite local farm with her kindergarten class last week. The mission was, if you asked her, to find the "perfect" pumpkin in their pumpkin patch. I think the kindergarten teachers were more hopeful that the students would learn about pumpkins and farming. It was a chilly day, but we managed to have some fun and get some good photos. I thought I'd share some today since it is Halloween.

The "perfect pumpkin" ended up being slightly lopsided and missing a stump, but when you know, you know. Thankfully, I remembered to bring two plastic bags, which I used to lug our two pumpkins back up the hill to the swagger wagon, a feat which just about put me into early labor.

It was a perfect morning though. Happy Halloween to you!
