We ventured up to Bemis Farm in Spencer for a Gourd Hunt one recent Saturday morning.MANY other families apparently had the same idea. The rules were that the kids could look for & gather as many as they could carry. (operative word there is "they" as in the kids -- NOT the parents!) So they stuffed their arms full. And then they got to bring them home, too! Cool.
Got to meet The Great Pumpkin. And upon further examination, Jonah declared, "That's just a teenager in a costume!". He is sharp, that Jonah! Of course, Merrik wanted nothing to do w/ Mr. Teenager in-a-Pumpkin-suit. (& for those of you who may be wondering, Jonah just got his cast off a week or 2 before this & was a little sore/easily tired -- hence the crutches) :)
And, well, the bright folks took their free gourds & left. We, on the other hand, got suckered into purchasing the above pumpkins after the boys deemed these two the "perfect ones for us!". How could we resist??
