Pumpkin Put

We've got most of the Christmas decorations up inside, but the front of our house still looked decidedly un-festive this morning . . .


. . . so Anna and I headed out front to put lights on our bushes.  Once we got all of the light nets arranged and powered up, there was just one thing left to do:


Toss the porch pumpkins down "compost hill" out back.  I handed each of the kids a pumpkin, and let them throw it . . .


. . . or "put it" (shot put style).  Joy launched her pumpkin the furthest of all the kids, but I put mine a few yards beyond hers.  My kids are better than me at math, piano, video games, and a bunch of other things, so it's nice to know I can still beat them at something, even if we only do it once a year.
