For the third year, Isaac grew watermelons. Today he picked his harvest.
To be fair, there were two watermelons on the vine. The other one was a tiny bit bigger, but a pest got into it recently and so it remained out there. I thought this was going to be our year because the melons were visible early! Yes! And then they just stopped growing. Not enough sun? Maybe the raspberry bushes covered them too much?? I don't know if he'll want to try again next year.
We finished up our Lego D&D campaign today. The dragon came to collect its egg that a bad guy had stolen and we got caught in the cross-fire. It turns out that we were "supposed" to let the bad guy help us wound the dragon so that it would leave with its egg, but we killed the bad guy really quickly. Also luckily, the dragon had a bad roll and so didn't see three of us hiding in almost plain sight.
It was a fun game and the kids loved it. Their imaginations have gone crazy making spin-offs. Ben did a great job being the dungeon master, but it's also a lot of work to DM so I don't know if we'll do something similar again soon. Well, besides the stories the kids have come up with.
