Surprise!

So, I'm doing dishes and I look out the window and think to my to myself, "is that a watermelon"? I dried my hands and walked outside to the edge of the lawn and YES, it is a watermelon! And YES, it was this big the first time I saw it.
I have thrown a watermelon into the desert instead of the trash, to see if the animals would eat it. I never realized it would grow. I guess we got just enough rain this year.
Dad convinced me to pick it. I don't know if it was quite ready or not but I picked it and cut it open. It tasted just okay and had TONS of seeds. I threw the seeds back out into the desert. Lets see what happens????
