I'm thinking a Wienermobile shaped cake would be ideal, or maybe one of those cakes with a wienermobile photo transfer on top. :

I'm king of the world!!!

I used tape to keep it on his head. At first, I tried clear packing tape, but it wasn't sticky enough. Then I tried foil tape, and that worked GREAT!!!! I put it on inside the hat so would stick to his hair when I put it on him, and nobody would see it in the pictures. He had it on his head all evening!!!!!!! :laughing:

Eddie and Ryer,

Since your pigs are so tame, her is a way to see how much they weigh. Get a seamstress tape (cloth) and measure around the pig right behind his front legs. Like you would measure your chest, then multiply by 10.1709 and subtract 205.7492

Ex:
46" x 10.1709 = 467.86 -205.7492 = 262# should be accurate within 10# + or -

Found that info online the other day. Here is a link to the article: http://www.thepigsite.com/articles/1106/use-heart-girth-to-estimate-the-weight-of-finishing-pigs

I think it is hilarious how he takes that cupcake and walks away...
But this is good....

Next time play some music to sing to....

No problem. I just sent my wife a picture of Oscar in an email. She'll think that's funny.

Of course she prefers to name our pigs Pork Chop and Bacon. :licking:

They are in the freezer now!
