Our Pumpkin!

So, all this freezing weather has not been good for our garden. Despite the fact that we covered all the plants up for the storm, everything died this past weekend......bummer because there were a ton of tomatoes on the vine. But look what made it through the cold temperatures.......a very large pumpkin!

Last year after Halloween we put our pumpkin in the compost pile and it must have seeded into the ground. This summer the plant took over our garden. It took us a long time to figure out what kind of plant it was because this huge plant only produced 2 pumpkins. Stay tuned because we're going to carve this pumpkin in a few weeks!





This is the other pumpkin. It actually grew around a fence.
