Happy Halloween from the Scrabble Pugs! We love scrabble and play it regularly and since each one of the pugs' names are valid Scrabble words* we couldn't resist dressing the pugs up as Scrabble boards and adding their names as Scrabble letters.
So we pitched our idea to Grammy and she whipped up these awesome costumes for the pugs.
Happy Halloween!
* Benjamin is not a valid Scrabble word, but Benny is.

Halloween is quickly approaching and we really struggled with costume ideas for Benjamin, Henry and Luna this year. Usually, an idea just pops into our heads and we run with it, but this year, we brainstormed and searched trying to find good costume ideas.
The hard thing is that we don't like to repeat ideas, but after 5 years I think our creative costume juices are running low.
Here is a recap of the pugs' Halloween costumes over the years.

B-B-B-Benny and the Jets
Well, this year, the pugs decided to be Benny and the Jets. The best part about the costumes this year is that all week I have been screeching at the top of my lungs, "BEN-NY, BEN-NY, BENNY AND THE JETS. B-B-B-Benny and the Jets."
Lucky for the pugs, Grammy was able to whip up their nifty jet outfits and make Benny his Benny shirt. In terms of "wearablity" the pugs seemed to like this year's costume. No hats and Benny didn't even have to worry about the wings. Although, towards the end of taking pictures Henry did have a crash landing in the grass and his wings did suffer a little damage. And Benjamin did manage to pee on his Benny shirt. But, peeing on his Halloween costume has become sorta a tradition, so it wouldn't have been Halloween without it.
Have a safe and happy Halloween weekend.

Happy Halloween from the Peanuts!
Henry as Charlie Brown.
Benjamin as Linus.
Luna as Lucy.
And of course we had to get a shot of Linus in his pumpkin patch waiting for the great pumpkin.
I have to send out a huge thank you to Punchy! She was kind enough to make the costumes for Benjamin, Henry & Luna. She did an absolutely wonderful job. Check out her Etsy shop to see some of her great outfits.
Have a safe and happy Halloween!

It is the last day of October
And we’re causing a stir
Time to get all dressed up
Glad we rested up
We’ll walk ‘round the hood
Cause we’re all looking good
Nice and sporty we’re dressed
They’re all so impressed
Two handsome football players
Answering Super Bowl prayers
With the girl leading a cheer
Have no more fear
There is nothing scary
Just some pugs that are hairy
At OBP it can be seen
This year’s costumes for Halloween
Enjoy and have a safe night! For fun, we have also uploaded pictures from past Halloweens to Flickr.

This week we have a Halloween themed Caption This. This shot is from last year when Benjamin, Henry and Luna dressed up as the 3 Little Pigs.
Looking forward to reading your captions in the comments.

Here we have Henry with last year’s scarecrow, a Baltimore Orioles fan (can you tell that we have not celebrated many sport victories in this house). Henry was borderline obsessed with this scarecrow. He treated the scarecrow like a real person and was always sitting at his feet and jumping up on his lap. He was pretty much begging for the scarecrow to pet him. As you can see in the picture, Henry and the scarecrow are deep into a conversation.
Looking forward to your captions in the comments!
Oh, and don’t forget to enter your picture into our Halloween Costume Contest!

This weekend we finally got around to getting out the Halloween decorations and building our annual scarecrow. Last year, we built an Oriole fan that Henry took quite a liking to. This year we built a Redskin fan, shortly after we watched their pathetic loss to the Packers on Sunday. I think the only thing missing is a little tear in his eye.
We also had a little bit of fun and dressed up our Buddha statue. Buddha stands guard at our front door and his official job is to welcome guests. We dress him up every Halloween. Last year he was a pirate, but I think this year’s costume is much better.

In all of the after Halloween rush of the Pugfest in Atlanta, announcing the Costume Contest winners and selling the 2007 Owned By Pugs Calendars, I almost forgot to blog about the Halloween fiasco that occured. In the photo you can see what we refer to as “the girl.” It is a little statue in the background behind Benjamin in the photo. Well, after we made our rounds through the neighborhood with the pugs in their 3 little pigs costumes, we came home to answer the door for trick or treaters. At first we didn’t have too many and we didn’t really need to man the door. Unfortunately, “someone” got careless and left the bowl of goodies on “the girl’s” tray. Of course, Benjamin the curious little pug, got to sniffin’ and smellin’ and tried to get to the goodies. He ended up pulling the girl over and her arm broke off and pieces of ceramic and Skittles went everywhere. Fortunately, no one was hurt but “the girl” is beyond repair.
Amusing side note to this story. “The girl” was a Christmas gift this past year. Henry was sleeping when she was opened and assembled. When Henry woke up, he was shocked to find the lady in his home and barked at her confused by her short stature and bewildered as to how she snuck into the house. It was quite a riot.
