a gnome-tastic surprise!

25 Apr
Knowledge of my gnome fetish is spreading –
– which means my gnome collection is growing.
And today is a gnew gnome day! People are apparently on the gnome hunt for me and this one was discovered accidentally and conveniently at a Herberger’s home store. Thanks to Serena for delivering this guy to my gnome home!
Let me introduce you to the gnew gnome :
blue hat. old man mustache. piercing eyes. cutest button nose ever.
What’s that? A baseball?
It’s a MLB team gnome – Minnesota Twins! Not only does the gnome represent and celebrate my life in Dawson – the town that has a gnome park and gnome-decorating contests (which, yes, I’m considering entering) – but it also geographically signifies the state in which I have resided for the past four years – Minnesota! Do you think when I attend a Twins game at the new Target Field this summer I can bring him along without buying a second ticket? Totally going to smuggle him in with my purse. (So excited!)
Maybe this gnew gnome can interest my other gnomes in a friendly game of baseball. He makes gnome number six so they can play three on three. Maybe use some ghost runners. I’ll keep score.
