A little over a month ago the kids and I found this HUGE mushroom in our yard. If you already saw these pics on
fb keep reading because there is more!

We were
amazed at just how big this crazy mushroom was, and it was right out in the middle of the lawn. As a matter of fact, when Grant spotted it from a distance, he yelled "WHO threw a diaper out in the middle of our yard?!"

My neurotic self made Grant wear gloves to handle the mammoth
shroom.
Tootie was happy just watching (and making silly faces of course!)

Grant just couldn't wait go SMASH it! I'm telling ya, he's ALL boy!

Well, we thought that mushroom was big until we found this one today...

Don't believe me? Just ask
Tootie!!!

This thing was
GINORMOUS!!!!

Again, Grant wasn't interested in posing for pictures. He picked out his 'tool' and had visions of mushroom smashing dancing in his head.

I did get this one cute one of him though. And let me tell you that thing was surprisingly heavy!

So the kids loaded it up in the back of the gator to haul it to it's destiny.



Audrey quickly lost interest in destroying the mushroom so I used the opportunity to take a couple of cue-T pictures of her and her baby.


Grant was in his glory poking, prodding and smashing.

There wasn't much left when he was finished but he sure had fun pulverizing it!

I have no idea if that was an edible mushroom or not (my guess is not), but I couldn't help but think of how good it would have tasted all seasoned up and fried in butter.

I don't know if I've ever seen such BIG mushrooms. We had a bunch of them (much smaller) in our yard this summer, and T loved kicking them with her rain boots on.
