Caption Contest

Ever since I won a contest over at Scotty's blog last April, I've wanted to host some sort of contest here. After much contemplation, I've decided to make it a "caption contest".

I've re-posted a picture I shared recently of Alice, Esther & Mabel looking out my office window. I want you to come up with a clever caption that you think best describes the situation or what they might be thinking or saying. Leave your entry as a comment and in about a week I will have an independent judge (so I can't be accused of bias) select the best caption. The winner will receive their choice of a photo from the selection at Bush Babe's blog. If you've never visited her place before, you have no idea what you're missing out on. She is an outstanding photographer and quite an entertaining person in general! The contest will conclude at 7:00 a.m. CST on Wednesday, February 3rd and I will announce the winner the following day.

Okay, time to put on your thinking caps and see what you can come up with! One entry per person, please.

Thanks Kelly - such a sweet thing to do. You'll have to show us where your BB prints ended up (I love seeing where they go).

This shot is a corker. (Slightly concerned about the missing wag in the middle!)

Fantastic picture.

I may be back when I have had time to think :D

Pam said...

I have 2 off the top of my head:

"We need a plan, girls.."

Or..

"To bark or not to bark.."

Pam said...

Oops! I broke the one-entry rule! Sooooooooooooo....I'll go with..

"To bark or not to bark?...."

Dorte H said...

My humble effort:

"Well, gals, we promised to pose in the buff, but she can´t force us to face the photographer as well."

Mike said...

Two choices:

1 - "You think we ought to let the people back into the house?"


2 - "Where's Betty?"

Kelly said...

Okay...Mike didn't follow the directions, either. I know he wants his first choice, though.

(poor Betty.... we ALL miss her around here)

Sandy said...

"....ok, they said they'd be right back".

Kelly, I am really sad for you, Pam, and my Dad for the losses you all suffered this month. My 11 year old Chocolate lab, Katy, was diagnosed with osteosarcoma this month. She has about a month left with us. I will all too shortly be familiar with your pain. With that in mind I think the caption should be:

"Oh boy Oh Boy! Do you think they brough US a treat!!!??"

Shelby said...

- I see the car!
-I see hotdogs!
-Gotta love those transparent grocery bags!

I'm telling you, four legs vs. two? We'll definately get to the pizza man first. Just keep looking.

Mike said...

I have to add another unofficial one:

"If she doesn't hurry, we'll have to start the poker game without her"

Claire said...

"OK mom just told us Victoria was coming tomorrow...how long is tomorrow..." "it's gotta be soon, right?"

ok that's actually terrible. i'm not good at this. but my parents tell weasley claire's coming or johns coming tomorrow and he runs to the window and waits for a long time.

"Girls, keep your eye on that dog walking though our yard. He better not even think about going on MY tree."

Kelly,

Thank you for alerting me about your contest, I appreciate it.

What came to my mind was so much in the same vein as the contribution which Quid had offered, so I will politely refrain from participating.
