A pumpkin mishap...
I have been planning a pumpkin patch party for my Love Nugget since before he was born. I was so excited about his due date because I knew every year we could celebrate with a "patch"... now I am sure he might halt this tradition as he ages, but for now...
SO I ordered 40 pumpkins for his party thinking it would really add to the authenticity of the party. Well through some miscommunication we ended up with 88!! Quickly, at the farm where where we purchased these, Brendan began giving me "the look" ... you know, the "where are we going to put all of these", look. OH this is wonderful, we will find a place, just what I always pictured... was my response!
So we loaded them up, and headed for home...
Collins loved them, but trying to find a place to put him while we unloaded quickly became a problem...
So I placed him in the box like any reasonable parent would...
That was until he was over the box experience...
Nope, Collins found another calling...
It was a little heavier than he anticipated!
I must say that I might be getting "slightly" carried away with his party. Honestly, you are not going to believe the extent we have gone to make this party special. Everybody keeps asking me, "If you do all this now, what is for years to come?"
I don't know. All I know, is we are going to celebrate this year, and what a gift it has been. I will worry about years to come... in years to come.
