A stroll though my pumpkin patch.

I took my barking camera outside to take pictures of our pumpkin patch in-progress. We have some of each size imaginable, and they are all just so cute ( Read more... )

Amazing! I'm so happy the larger pumpkins decided to have more! I can't wait to see what you and the boys do with all those pumpkins :-)

I can't blame them for not having more sooner if they were working on twins! ;-)

Yes, that is true!

I wish I live nearer to you so you could share your bounty with me too! (your talk of zucchini bread has been torturous!)

Oh no about the vine! I hope the pumpkins are okay or you find something to do with two green not-quite-ripe pumpkins =)

Hehehe. And I'd certainly share if you were here!

Well done!! I cant grow anyhting in my yard, the soil is really bad

Thanks! Don't feel too bad - I probably won't have a garden next year. If I do, it will be very small (the new housing we'll be moving into has next-to-NO yard).

Love the pumpkins!! The Boy wanted to plant some this year but didn't tell me until too late...maybe next year.

Are the marigolds for pest control? Or just for the pretties?

Thanks! And the marigolds were planted for defense against the bunnies. They worked perfectly on bunnies, but they wouldn't keep the ground squirrels out of the tomatoes, so we ended up having to put up a fence anyway. :-/ I'm glad I planted them, though - I think they're beautiful as a "living fence."
