Bilbert's Farewell

It's a bitter sweet moment, as Bilbert has finally taken off to his new adventure! We decided he will take off to his first destination, England, and do the local tour of Ottawa when he comes back home.  All his buddies were sad to see him go, but wished him well and look forward to hearing about his travel adventures.  They gave him quite the send off... needless to say when I came home yesterday, I walked right in the middle of his farewell party.. in my kitchen!!  So I quickly grabbed the camera and took a few pictures.  There was a lot of mischief going on.  Monsters drinking all sorts of strange beers, monkeys monkeying around, kitties in the pizza box, drunken bandits passed out and a few binging on chips.. oh boy! you just have to witness it for yourself!


They are so cute! They even made him a sign..aaaaaw!

 Aerial view of  the party! A few discussions going on...


Sneaky little devils! Where did they get that beer from??


How am I supposed to cook in this kitchen?? Maybe I should just join the party!

Oh wait! guess who ate the rest of the pizza... I guess i'm gonna have to cook..grr!

what shall we do with a drunken bandit, what shall we do with a drunken bandit...
ok enough singing, someone ought to tone down the drinking!

ok maybe a few someones need to tone down the drinking..woah!


Bilbert was having a great time!!!


..Then he got a little teary eyed... it was time to go catch his flight..

Group hug... goodbye Bilbert... sob ! sob!

All packed and on his way...we are all sad as we watch him leave..

....off he goes! we are all shouting our goodbyes!!
So long Bilbert!! We love you!! write as soon as you get there...we are dying to hear about your adventures in England!

Stay tuned....

  11. Know I left a comment a while back but the more I thought about it (and when I start thinking watch out, I'm dangerous) I began to realize you have more than just an adorable story here, this could be very marketable. Have you thought about putting the pictures and story into a book and selling it in your etsy shop ? There are adults that I'm sure would purchase it. OR, you could even tweak the story a bit (like change beer to rootBEER and/or ginger ALE) and make it into a children's book. Your little critters are so precious they could become very popular characters in your very own series of books ... look out J. K. Rowling ! :D
