Pumpkin Update

i figure it is time to face the truth and update about our pumpkin....it DIED!! oh no. i don't know what happened, it just shriveled up and died. poor thing. Blaine was pretty bummed too. the same thing happened to some of the neighbors, but others are still growing strong. i don't know if it's our soil, or if it was the extreme hot then cold we were having. it was just weird!
Lucky for us i am very competitive and a little sneaky....we planted another pumpkin in the backyard when we thought it was going to die the first time around. we did this one in a pot with fresh, GOOD soil and it seems to be growing well. we just need some bees to come pollinate!
since pumpkin plant #2 is a secret....we put a fake out front for now! hehe!
