While at the patch they talked me into (that's what I tell people anyway) getting a slightly larger pumpkin than we usually get. I was thinking at the time that it was going to be our last Halloween in Oregon so it would be okay to get a little carried away in the spirit of Fall. I still feel that is perfectly reasonable. Forklift Shmorklift! It was 181 lbs of nothin'.
We had fun emptying the guts out yesterday. side note, notice Boston and Chris are not around they claim to gag on anything slimy. Suckers.
I'll post final carving stage in a few days.

Wow, that's fantastic! Seems like you'd have to get inside to carve the thing! :)
I love it! That is one great looking pumpkin. And that is a really good picture of you with rabbit ears and all.
I was just thinking that is a great picture of you too! I can't believe you bought an 81 pound pumpkin! Did they really need a forklift to help you to your car??
yeah I was going to comment on how great you look in the picture too! Looks like a ton of fun. Tell Boston to not be such a wuss. So wince you guys aren't moving for a while now when are you all coming to visit AZ again? Thanksgiving? Christmas? You know gas prices are dropping.
That pumpkin is huge. i can't wait to see it finished.
That is the biggest, coolest pumpkin EVER. You better post pictures when you're done!

You are my hero! I'm the lazy mom and make them pick little pumpkins that they can carry themselves.
Ok never even considered carving such a mamoth pumpkin. You are so amazing. Maybe I should grow some next year?
