Watermelons

When we were about 4 and 5, my brother and I, my uncles took up a lot of time with us and they liked to play pranks. The whole family loved watermelons and my grandad planted some every year. My grandmother's sister, Aunt Ellen especially loved them. Well my uncles cooked up this idea to pull a prank on her. So they went to the corn crib and found a burlap feed sack. They had a great idea! We were both kind of small and my uncle decided he was going to fool Aunt Ellen. So he put my brother in the feed sack and put him on his shoulder and we walked over to her house. My uncle called her and asked if she wanted some watermelons. She said yes and came out on the porch. My uncle told her he had some real nice ones and rolled my brother out of the sack. Man if you could have seen her face! As small as I was I still remember that look! She stayed mad at him for days. But he wasn't worried, it was a good joke and she would get over it and laugh about it, and she did. But oh thatlook!!
I remember....
