Oh my gourd

Johnston's Shana and Donald Pagliaro have been capturing the same photo of their children, 10-year-old Giabella and 4-year-old Donnie III, since they were babies. The pumpkin comes from harvester Norman Gansette, also of Johnston, who is a family friend. He sends the pumpkin off for contests, and he has been involved in the trade for many years. The proud parents said they “love it and look forward to driving by to see the pumpkin growing.” (Courtesy of Shana and Donald Pagliaro)
