Tim & Lydia's Pumpkin Patch

     Neighbor Tim and his children planted a couple of pumpkin seeds in the spring. The vines refused to be confined to a garden and crept into the front yard, overtaking a good third of the lawn. Now the growing season has reached an end and the last pumpkins need to be picked, the massive vines removed and the grass restored to suburban orderliness. (Surprisingly, the zoysia underneath survived unscathed and the only facelift needed was  a quick trim with a mower!)
     Lydia may be tiny yet but she is not afraid of work and she is quite proud of her harvest. She is also cute as a button!
