OK, Payton is crazy

A few weeks ago Payton laid a nice gash in his thumb

cutting through his tendon.

He had surgery to reattach it and close up the wound.

They had to place a pin in his thumb to keep it in immobile while it healed.

Monday he went in to get the stitches out.

The doctor tested the pin and said it was not yet ready to come out,

and to come back in a couple weeks.

Payton had been on the count down to get the darn thing out.

He couldn't wait any longer

Check out the video

*unless you are grossed out by that kind of stuff

Then simply go about your merry way not thinking

one bit about a pin coming out - it's a chill maker!

See Matt send soil samples in to test

See Matt grow a GIANT PUMPKIN !

It was an awesome year for the Grow Big or Go Home Mountain Green clan.

Matt totally creamed his winning record from last year with not one,

but two awesome pumpkins.

His Utah record breaking weight last year was 1169 lbs. This year he broke that record for a short moment with a 1300+ giant. I can't remember the exact size since just a few minutes later they stuck his gigantor alien pumpkin on the scale and it weighed in at

a whopping 1600 lbs!!

What an awesome moment for Matt and all of us Crazy Matt lovers!

The winner got blessed with a chilly ice water dowsing

followed by a big whip cream pie to the face.

Matt's plan next year is to take the year off

from growing the giant orange blobs,

build a giant green house instead

and shoot for the World record in 2013!!

See Matt

See Matt haul crap.........

Go Matt Go!!
