October 16: Our Halloween Pumpkin

Seems like every Halloween, we take the kids to a local pumpkin patch where they are each able to paint a small pumpkin and we get one bigger pumpkin for the whole family. That's the one we carve for Halloween night. This year, we did the pumpkin patch, but they wanted 8.99 for their pumpkins. And, their entire selection was on the small side. Later in the day, we had to stop by Meijer for a few things, and they only wanted 3.99 for any size pumpkin. The sizes in their selection were much larger, as well, so we bought our pumpkin from Meijer. Can't say I've ever bought pumpkin from Meijer, as it's not the typical place you would think to buy such a commodity. But, hey, I can't complain....at least it makes for good blog writing.
