Max grew some beautiful pumpkins in our back yard. Back in June, his class planted seeds in plastic cups. His grew, and we stuck it in the ground out back. Amy and I both are not very good gardeners at all, so we didn't have much hope that it would survive. But somehow, with a little luck from the weather, and maybe because they stayed hidden beneath the giant crab grass, these two beauties made it. The vines are completely dead as of last friday, so I think they're done growing. So... now, will they make it 'til Halloween?

Awesome job, Max ... I guess it helped that a couple of neighborhood hoodlums didn't have access to the garden through the old cemetery!
