On a windy Sunday morning in mid-October, the Saucier clan made its annual pilgrimage out to the pumpkin patch at Springdale Farms, in search of the Great Pumpkin.
When we asked Morgan whether her ideal pumpkin was a big one or a small one, she answered emphatically, "a small one." Later, she elaborated that we needed one pumpkin that was Morgan-sized, and one that was Gwen-sized. (Thanks for clarifying that.)
As soon as the hayride dropped us off in the pumpkin patch, Morgan raced off to find her perfect pumpkin, while Dad chased after her.
If you think we're kidding when we say that Morgan was looking for her perfect pumpkin, we're not. She passed by dozens of pumpkins that didn't meet her lofty standards... "too heavy", "too green", "why does it have bumps on it, Dad?".
Finally, though, she found one that was perfectly Morgan-sized, and proudly posed for some photos. Luckily, finding a Gwen-sized pumpkin was much easier.
