Oscar's Adventures

Oscar and Shane had many adventures this weekend. Shane built him a swing in the living room...,

...and he let Oscar push the button for the elevator.

Oscar looked much cleaner in earlier pictures. His adventures had taken a toll by the time he reached us.

But rest did not come Saturday. Shane, Oscar and I started our day at the library.

Then we introduced Oscar to the Discovery Museum.

After nap, Oscar got to see where Mommy worked. Daddy had to pick up some discontinued products for our guest bedroom.

Sunday morning, we took a family trip to the barn. Oscar sat on a horse and played on the gravel pile. If it's not the end of his journeys, he needs a bath. Badly.

Next stop was church. Shane introduced Oscar to his Sunday school class.

By this time, Oscar was looking very tired (and dirty).,Mommy had him stay downstairs when Shane napped.

Our last errand of the weekend was a trip to CVS to print lots and lots of pictures.

Oscar For the Weekend

Oscar the Octopus came home with Shane for the weekend. It's our job to show Oscar an adventure and fill out his travel log for Monday. Shane's ecstatic.

He doesn't like to let Oscar out of his sight.

They do everything together.

Shane introduced Oscar to the cats...,

...and Voltron.

Shane is 100% into the idea of taking pictures with Oscar anywhere and everywhere.

"Shane, do you want to take a picture by the news truck?" I asked.

"I don't think so." Shane paused. Then the light went on. "Quick! By the sign! Take a picture!"

"Look! A prickly bush!"

Oscar almost got mailed.

After a Saturday morning of adventures, Shane was pictured out. He wasn't tired of Oscar, though.

The best pictures will go into the travel log. That will be another post.
