Today was Bible Center School's 5th Grade Pumpkin Drop. Apparently the kids all go and watch every year, but this year was finally Emily's turn to participate.
Emily's partner for the pumpkin drop was Jaxson. They had to construct a container and protection for their pumpkin so that it would not crack when dropped from a very tall bucket truck. They decided to use a large trash can filled with pillows, balloons and foam from the hospital.
Then it was time for the drop...
But, when Ms. Ramey took the lid off...well, the pumpkin didn't make it. Oh well. They sure had a fun time planning and building their pumpkin protection device.
