Pumpkins!!

Jeff left his pumpkin outside last fall and eventually moved it off of the porch to a spot in the yard where I normally plant flowers every spring.  Well, he tilled up the spot so that I could plant the flowers I bought but before I could plant any flowers, we noticed that there was something else coming up out of the ground.  Now, we have a HUGE pumpkin plant growing in front of our house!  It gets bigger everyday!


It started off as just one little plant.  Now I think we need to put up some little fencing so that it doesn't grow across the sidewalk and block the front steps!


This is the 1st pumpkin I found - it's on the sidewalk and very small.

This is the 2nd pumpkin I found.  It's much bigger than the 1st one.

A better shot of the 2nd pumpkin.

The beginning of another pumpkin!  There were a few like this - where the pumpkin was just beginning to grow.  I don't know much about pumpkins, but hopefully we will have some nice orange pumpkins this fall!  IF we can keep all the critters out of them - if you have any ideas, please let me know!
