LOOK AT THOSE PUMPKINS!!!

We started out just planting seeds that were from enormous pumpkins. My seed wasn't as big as some of them, but mine turned out to be the biggest pumpkin. It didn't get orange, so it could've kept growing. But it would have split if we let that happen, and then I wouldn't be able to see my pumpkin, big or small. It's already starting to split, but it hasn't all the way yet. I love pumpkins. I've never tried pumpkin pie, but I lovepumpkin cake and pumpkin seeds baked with seasoning. I'm on the far left of this picture, my brother, Drake, is in the left bottom, my grandpa Brown is holding my sister Amari, and Zander is in the bottom right. Just to the left of me, (sort of in my armpit area) is my pumpkin. It's the biggest. It weighs 495.5 pounds.
This is Drake's pumpkin. We were going to carve mine, but it was way too big. We also carved Zander's. At first I thought the carving was an egg, but then I found out it was a bat. Silly me. I love those pumpkins. They're so cool. You could fit in them. My dad carved them with a saws-all. It took a long time to carve, and some of the skin was a foot thick. We had to use a shovel to get all the guts out. We put two Yankee candles in one, and a strobe light in the other. They shined really bright on Halloween.
