But anyway, this year we decided to make our pumpkins in the likeness of our favorite Homestar Runner characters. Jim picked Da Cheat:
I don't know about you but, I think he did a pretty swell job. Me on the other hand, I totally slaughtered mine. I picked Trogdor the Burninator. Usually I don't do a bad job but, for some reason my hand slipped and I chopped off part of his mouth...:
I was pretty dang mad about it - just ask Jim. After I butchered it I really wanted nothing more than to smash poor Trogdor's face in.
Now, I bet you're wondering why I titled my blog "Not Another Pirate....Arrrrrrgh!", and I'm about to tell you. Just about every year (since we've been married) we've had a trad
ition of carving a pumpkins. For the first year I carved a silly face and Jim carved a pirate. On the second year I carved a mischievous little face and Jim carved (you probably guessed it) another pirate. The exact same pirate to be exact. lol. So I've had a lot of laughs on his behalf about him and his obsession with pirates.
Hopefully everyone has a fun-filled (and candy-filled) Halloween.

where are the pirate pictures? and good job on the The cheat.
Wow, I'm totally impressed!! I can't believe you carved those! Trogdor looks great! If you hadn't mentioned the mistake, I wouldn't have noticed. I could tell it was him just glancing at the picture before I read your whole post.
Thanks Melanie that makes me feel much better cause I was stressin' it. :D
And as far as the pirate pictures, I totally tried to find them. They seem to be lost. :( But if I find them I promise to post them.
Great job on displaying the ARTISTIC TALENT. I still have patriotic decorations from the 4th on display. It just dawned on me...I am very up to date...my decorations are in honor of the elections on November 4th.:)
