It was the month of October and it had rained for three days straight.  My family  thought we might have to cancel our annual pumpkin patch and deli trip. Then that mourning the rain stopped and we set out to Sonoma for our day of pumpkins and good food at our favorite deli. It was still was still cloudywhen we got to the pumpkin patch and a little but that wasn’t going to stop us. Not to mention it was little crowded.

     We pulled on our boots and set out for the best pumpkins we could find in the patch. I was walking through the mud when i saw it; the perfect pumpkin. It was bright orange, perfectly curved and leaned to the slightly right and it was beautiful. When i was staring at it the clouds broke and a ray of lite fell upon it; it was the miricle pumpkin. I walked over to it as a cat would stalk a mouse, when i picked it up it was heavy as a ton of bricks and nearly dislocated my arm. I carried over to m parents and they bought it for me and said,”nice choice Alex.” Then i put my precious pumpkin in our car and set out to find my little brother.

    I eventually found him by the smelly pig pen. I stunk like a dead cow but Terrence my brother didn’t mind and he was casually petting a little pig as he enjoyed the smell. It made me sick to watch him sniffing the air with pleasure. When i went  over to  him holding my nose i told him it was time for lunch. So my whole family walked into the deli barn thing for the best sandwiches made in the whole world. We were about to leave when terrence  told us he had to go pee really bad. As we walked him to the port-o poty he saw a chiken sitting in the petting pen. He was so excited he ran over to the chiken started to chase it around and around. He was about to grab it when all of a sudden he started to pee his pants. That chicken excited him so much he couldn’t control it and people started to laugh.

    He was so embarrassed he ran into the car and hid. On the car ride home he took off his pants and sat their with my pumpkin on his naked lap so other cars wouldn’t see him. I was so mad, ” why should i have to suffer for his actions” i muttered to myself. In my mind he had runed my pumpkin my beautifull pumpkin. Him and the chiken had made it one of the worst family outings of my life.
