While he's traveling to his next destination, I thought I'd share with you our adventures from this past week!
The first thing that happened when Stanley got into town was take a nap.
Yes.
We took a nap. He was sympathetic to my bought of insomnia, and the fact that I wanted to die at 3pm, so we napped.
After the nap he wanted to meet Robin. He and Robin got along really well! Stanley threw Robin's favorite mouse for him for a little while and after getting really hyper chasing the mouse around, Robin decided he wanted to wrestle! Stanley apparently *loves* wrestling, so he was totally up for the challenge.
However...
Robin won. XD
Stanley was a good sport about it though! He had lots of fun wrestling with Robin!
After they were done wrestling, we decided to go downstairs and get a snack. Keith was going to bed for the night so the 3 of us (Robin, Stanley, and I) stayed downstairs.
Stanley noticed that, while we had our Christmas tree up and strung with lights, there were no *decorations* on it. I explained to him that it was my job to decorate it and that I just hadn't gotten around to it yet. He then suggested that we should do it together, so we did!
Stanley obviously did a fantastic job helping me!
Later that week, Keith hosted a jam at our favorite BBQ spot, so I decided to take Stanley out for the night!
After a few drinks together Stanley got brave and decided to sign up for a turn to jam. I told him that I had no idea he played an instrument and when I asked what he played, he proudly declared that he played guitar, drums, and xylophone!
He unfortunately didn't have his pint-sized instruments with him at the jam, so instead of trying to play an over-sized guitar, or pick up drum sticks that were 3 times his height, he took over kick drum duty!
The day after the jam was Christmas Eve! That's when my family gets together to celebrate, so I brought Stanley along to join the fun!
He hung out with my sister:
Ate Arroz con gandules y pernil with my brother:
Played Bayblades with my cousin and father:
And wrestled with Keith:
Though, he didn't have near as much fun wrestling with Keith as he did with Robin. He thought it was a bit one-sided. O_o
After wrestling with Keith, and eating all that food and drinking all that wine, he needed a potty break. I just COULDN'T pass up the opportunity to see a pint-sized man try to use a regular-sized toilet, just for the sheer comedic value, so we ran in when he wasn't looking!
Stanley shrieked and yelled for us to get out, but when he was done, he came out laughing. It was all in good fun! XD
We had a very good night at my aunt's house, but with all Stanley's playing around resulted in a not so nice ending of the night. O_o
Just as we were leaving to go home, Stanley tried to swing back into my camera bag and he sort of underestimated the distance and broke his arm :(
We got him patched up though, with one of those high-tech "invisible" casts, so he's feeling better and is ready to rock at his next adventure with Jaci!
During the commotion, I didn't remember to get a picture of poor stanley and his cast, but perhaps Jaci will showcase it to you... if you can see it... because it's invisible! XD
