30+ lbs. of Watermelon


Jo's sister in law, Anika, stayed with us last night as she was in Utah for a family reunion and some other fun stuff. Anika also brought along her daughter Elin who, despite being in a different state apart from her dad and brothers and surrounded by strangers, was a lot of fun. That day we'd gone shopping and picked out a HUGE watermelon. I didn't quite realize how big it was until we got to the check out and it maxed out the scale. Apparently, if your produce weighs more than the scale can measure then you just get it for the max weight the scale can give. Sweet! Anyways, we took a picture just to show how big this mega-melon was compared to our niece, Elin. We could have hollowed it out and made a canoe out of it for her.

That is a fantastic picture, I'm surprised you were able to get it considering she was afraid to stand near the giant watermelon (which was excellent too, though we were so full after our cafe rio outing).
