The Snowball Pumpkin Adventure Darlene Davies

Carter and Chase spent all afternoon with their Gigi to pick out the perfect pumpkin at Davies Farm Stand. They took a hay ride to search the pumpkin patch for the perfect one, but just didn't find what they were looking for. Only when they came back to the farm stand did they finally find it! It was a snowball pumpkin. Chase liked it because it was small enough to hold all by himself. Carter liked it because he loves winter and this was the perfect mix of the two seasons! Once they got home to the golf course where they live, they displayed the pumpkin on the hay bales outside next to the big orange pumpkins, then went inside for lunch. Just as they sat down, Chase jumps up and exclaims "The pumpkin! It's rolling down the hill." Gigi went to find the pumpkin, but it was gone. Little did they know, their little snowball pumpkin was in for the ride of his life! Off to a scary start, the pumpkin goes on an exciting adventure that leads him to some new friends. Fall in New England is filled with wonderful traditions including warm apple pie, fresh sweet corn and scarecrows. Every doorstep will have their pumpkins proudly displayed, so it has to be perfect. You can imagine the boys surprise when their carefully picked pumpkin rolled away for good.
