AKA:
ONE HUGE DISASTER
The night started off with both Calin and Skilly “tap tapping” Micah as their teammate.  What?  Are they kidding me?   They said that Micah usually won.  I told them it was because he always got the sympathy vote.  They also told me that I am a carving hog, and don’t let them do as much as Micah lets them.  I told them that I am an “up and coming”, and did they think that Martha Stewart let the peons do the work that her name was attached to?  Then they told me that Martha’s daughter hates her…and that is probably why.  Whatever.
Skilly turned out to be my partner.  She was faking a good attitude, so props to her.  When we pow wowed, I asked for her ideas, and we combined the two.  Very nonMartha of me.
Here are the finished products:

Can you really believe that Micah and Calin put this out?  #1 — not kid friendly, and a horrible example to our children.  #2 — who hasn’t seen the whole guts spilling out of a pumpkin? #3 — Who cares about baseball.  Certainly not Micah who has NEVER sat to watch a game on TV.  Funny that during the contest, they insisted on having the game on.  They called it “ambiance”.

Look at this beauty.  It is our nephew Jake at a camp out.   Straight teeth from braces.  Freckles like his favorite aunt.  And yes……you heard it right….we had pyrotechnics.  Our pumpkin’s hair lit on fire and toasted the marshmallows.

Notice the toasted marshmallows…and the cutest little girl in the world.

Scout was obviously intrigued.
SO….THE VERDICT…..
A STUPID TIE.
Are you kidding me?  That is such a joke.  They said we had the win until they saw the booty on the back of ours that was carved out with toilet paper attached.  We said the poor guy was camping, and it was “ambiance”.  Plus, they went for potty humor last year.  How were we supposed to know that the judges classed it up this year?!
