Pool of Pumpkins

We went to get pumpkins this afternoon at the local pumpkin patch, take some pictures and take a hay ride. It turns out that the pumpkin patch was very wet and smelly and they weren't giving hay rides. We bought a few small gords and ended up going to Fred Meyer to get the pumpkins. The pumpkins at Fred Meyer were very cheap and huge. There were almost no small ones. We ended up getting 3 of their smallest and they were all around 12-15 lbs. The funny thing was they were in these huge boxes (4' x 4' x 4') filled to the top with large pumpkins. They had the boxes such that you couldn't get to the boxes in the back without climbing all over the boxes/pumpkins in the front. So we let the kids climb on the pumpkins to find them. It turns out the kids cannot carry the 15 lbs pumpkins so I had to get on and climb on them as well. During our adventure, Ilea said we were in a "pool of pumpkins". We got some good pictures.
