Pumpkin Watch

It's time again to check in on the Coffey pumpkin patch.  We have high hopes this year as last year's crop was so delicious!


This sugar pumpkin is about the size of a softball.  There are literally dozens of these in the patch.  *crosses fingers*  Hope they all make it to maturity.


This is a Rouge Vif D'Etampes pumpkin...also known as Cinderella pumpkin.  There aren't nearly as many of these.  Hope several make it as they were definitely the best tasting pumpkins we had last year.

And to all the little people in my life, don't worry.  We'll still make a trip to the BIG pumpkin patch, no matter how many pumpkins Granny grows.  That trip is way too much fun!
