Going Home….

Reuben had so much fun diving off de springboard into de popcorn bucket (and ate seberal kernels ob popcorn too!)
Den Professor Whooot announced dat it was almost de right twist in de dryer tunnel to send Reuben home. Professor Whooot calibrated Reuben’s locket so dat Reuben and Dougie would be able to talk to each frou deir lockets abter Reuben went home.

De Cowsins gave Reuben sum speshial treats – a jar ob honey and a box ob gourmet cheeses – to bring home to his fambily. Peter and VW gave him a warm scarf and hat to wear back home since it was still cold dere. Jenni gave him flowers from her garden, and Eliza took more photos. Finally, Dougie walked wiff Reuben to de Fluffy Cycle Ride.
It was time for Reuben to go back home to Marty Mouse House.   (art by A Mouse Named Peter)

A Clarification

Hello! Dis Dr. Whooot. It has been brought to my attenshion dat sum people were concerned dat Reuben had crossed de rainbow bridge. Rest assured dat he is bery much alibe! Reuben and Dougie hab been transported here frou a space time portal in our dryer. I belieb Dougie’s secret night time practicing wiff de magic wand abter our trip to Sedona in October allowed dis to occur, because based on my calculashions, de twisty tunnel began forming at about dat time. So not to worry about our young friend Reuben. Oder dan getting into mischief wiff Dougie, all is well and he will be able to travel back to Marty Mouse House wiff de next twist in de space time continuum.

(Beowulf, one ob de Cowsins, leaned over to whisper in his cousin Beodolf’s ear, “Professor Whooot shure uses a lot ob words. What did he just say?” And Beodolf replied, “I fink he said Reuben and Dougie are getting into mischief!” and de two cows ran off to see what fun was to be had…)

Time to Return Home

Reuben and Dougie had lots ob fun together and really enjoying getting to know each other, but as it turns out, Dougie has a family that is waiting and worried about him ober at A Mouse Named Peter, so Reuben decided he would help get him back to the dryer he came from fru the time trabel tunnel wiff an assist from some trabel juice. Dougie is about to attempt the return. The boys will take him to the mid point and then he is on his own for what should be a safe and quick trip home! Of course Dougie has an officshul inbitatshun to come back any time and bisit, and bring his friends! See you soon Dougie!!

The picks!!

The picks are in! Our bedtime buddies selectshuns hab been made, and the winners are… (we’ll let the boys tell you)

Reuben: “Dis is Dougie, and we share lots ob interests like reading under the cobers and doing time and space trabel. He is also berry good at telling bedtime stories. Last night he told me all about dis other world where he habs all these friends, mice, cows and bunnies and he hatched an egg one time, and got his tongue stuck to a flag pole in the winter. I don’t know where he comes up wiff dis stuff, he’s great!”

Baxter: “Some people fink I’m too big for a bedtime buddy, but remember I’m the youngest one and I need snuggles too. Dis my buddy Roger, he’s a snuffelphant”

Waffles: “Dis is Kanu, he is a sea urchin, and we are a perfect match because I like to talk alot, and he doesn’t hab any ears but he can read my lips so we still communicate, but I won’t keep him up at night. He habs a great sense ob humor.”

Fish: “I picked Wally cause he looks like me and we both like ballet.”

Barry: “I picked the Fish called Frank. He smells a little bad, but he’s berry kind and we both lub listening to music to help us fall asleep.”

And don’t worry, we aren’t putting any ob the other buddies in the wood chipper or anyfing, they will all be here to cuddle be lubbed on foreber and eber.

Good night eberybody – sweet dreams!!
