The Great Pumpkin Growing Competition Continues!

In the lead (so far), Amanda's Paul the Giant Pumpkin.


 


Close behind, my own emotionally insecure Herbert.









Second to last, Lib's little Linus.

 


Third so far, Steve's tattooed Arnold the Terminator.

 





And in last place so far, Sophie's poor and aptly named Lil Mama.

The pumpkins are continuing to grow, so who knows how this contest will end! Personally, I'm hoping some misfortune will strike Paul, or Amanda and Paul will be disqualified for using some kind of fertilizer laced with steroids or something... Perhaps Paul will come down with whatever unfortunate disease has been killing off Lil Mama's pumpkins, who kept turning up rotten and dead before they'd even started growing! 

The funny thing is, because all the pumpkins are yellow, people keep asking what kind of plants we have growing in the front yard!
