Caption That Photo: A Contest!

**Update**

Contest has ended! Be patient--it might take us awhile to get around to this. Today we're attempting some potty training (more on that later--and by "later" I mean "if this is a success"), so I don't know when Steve will get around to checking your hi-larious captions.

**Original Post**

Evidently Jack's picture from yesterday was a hit!


Such a hit that Eric (Steve's college roommate and our good friend) suggested I have a photo caption contest, a la MckMama. What a good idea! I'm really bad at caption contests, but maybe y'all are fantastic. I sure hope so, because I have no idea what words would perfectly describe such a sight.

How about we leave this open until 10:00 PM tonight? (That's 10 PM Central Time on Tuesday.) Arbitrary, I know. Midnight would be fitting, but I just don't stay up that late and don't care to wait until tomorrow morning. Maybe no one will enter. That's okay, although I'd love to see my ghost readers (I know you exist!) come out of the woodwork with some doozy captions.

Hmm. How could I bribe you? Would anyone be interested in a beautifully framed copy of said picture? I know, maybe you don't care to have Jack's chubby bunny (perfect, Sal, just perfect) face leering at you from your nightstand, but then again, maybe you do. Plus I have $8 left on a Hobby Lobby gift card, and a frame would be a perfect investment with said gift card.

Judging will be done by Stephen with some input by me. (This of course means that you can't enter, Steve. Sorry.) And just so you know, Steve's a pretty funny guy. He might be a tough judge.

Let the captioning begin!

She "secretly" reads your blog. Guess she decided not to post it though. Anyway, her name's Denise and this is her blog link: http://sentimentsbydenise.typepad.com

Blast! I missed the deadline!
Had I not, mine would have been something like "I am working hard on a wonderful surprise for you, Mommy..."
I hope that wasnt 'over the edge' :-/

I didn't even know about this contest until this morning! Aw, man! I have to say, though, that I'm with Sally. "Chubby Bunny" is classic.

I want to be like you and have a photo contest!!
