Today was planting day at the pumpkin patch. If the seed package is to be believed, I only have 93 days until harvest. Woo, hoo!

My pumpkins have started to grow! I am just so excited. I can't wait until they are big enough to carve. I suppose I've got a little bit of time until that will be possible...

I have decided to grow pumpkins this year.

Never having grown pumpkins before (or anything else for that matter), I am preparing myself for everything to die. However, I am going to work very hard to have several jack o'lantern grade pumpkins in time for Halloween.

I will be documenting my attempt through pictures. Stay tuned for future updates!

This was taken from the condo we're staying at in Chicago. It is an incredible view.
