Digging through the archives I found this trip to our local pumpkin patch that has photos of at least ten different varieties of pumpkins. The colors and variations are amazing! And so is Noodle’s love for that large pumpkin. {and while browsing, I found this vintage pumpkin post— one of my very first posts– shot with a point and shoot camera and Noodle’s NG tube on full display. My, how far we’ve both come!}
