The Pumpkins

 Pumpkins and Squash are out in force now, everywhere. Stands and patches galore. Here are some around here.













Here is our granddaughter Anne Marie's first trip to the pumpkin patch.


And here she is with her parents this fall on the evening of her high school homecoming. Time runs like a freight train.

Your Anne Marie is just beautiful. Time certainly does fly by doesn't it? I think it goes so quickly to remind us of how blessed we are. Time is just so precious and never more so than when we can spend it with those we love.

Anne Marie is a gorgeous young lady. Such a lovely family photo and a very sweet one of her as a baby. Your Fall photos are the reason I love this time of the year. The variety of pumpkins and gourds are great, and I agree with Sandra that they make a beautiful header.

Growing up, back in the '40s, all the pumpkins I knew about were round and orange. Isn't it wonderful that there are so many kinds and colors and shapes now? I love it.

Your granddaughter has turned into a lovely young woman. High school Homecoming is so fun, and was a favorite time in my school years. That is the cutest picture of her when she was just a little one on her first trip to the pumpkin patch.
