Doodles’ First Halloween

Here is our baby at 6 months old investigating some pumpkins. Now he is 11 years old and still investigating them. Last year our son threw his jack-o-lantern into the woods beside his house. After those dead trees were cut down and removed, he noticed vines growing. He stopped by this afternoon with one of his many pumpkins. Amazing! Happy Halloween! I’m going to get ready now for dinner at our friends’ house, and no, we are not wearing costumes.

@paigea You must have pretty rich compost! All that grows for me are weeds.

Thank you. I adore this boy. I never imagined pumpkins would grow so easily like that.

It looks like Doodles has an investigative nose.

Awww, why didn't you wear costumes? Of course you could simply wear makeup in a goofy way. I wonder if my cats would like pumkins, maybe I'll buy one before the season is over.

I'll bet you had fun @DianneN do you have any pictures? I'd buy one just to let it break down in the yard somewhere and maybe get a pumpkin patch going, yeah, right, pumpkins growing in this dry desert

Been there. Done that. Don’t waste your money. Doodles sniffed the pumpkin from my son’s yard twice, then walked away.

@rebelann No photos. I doubt a desert is good for growing pumpkins.

@DianneN It is true he looks all black there, but it was his "Halloween" disguise.

cute picture. Cool free pumpkins. Lily stayed in on Halloween. We had rain and wind on Halloween. So I didn't get to help my uncle hand out candy at church. But I did wear my black cat shirt anyway.

@DianneN My black cat shirt actually came with socks. My grandmother bought the set for me many years ago before I found Lily. Yes, the shirt still fits. I think I have lost the socks though.

When I lived in Boynton Beach, there was a small field at the corner of Lawrence Road and Boynton Beach Blvd (now since developed) that had wild pumpkins growing there. A lot of people would stop by there every year and pick them out a pumpkin and take it. It was nice having a free pumpkin patch!

There is nothing better than free! Our son has a total of three. The lawncare guys mowed right over the best of them.
