Colby and George's Curious Adventure

Prologue: For being a good listener at school this week, Colby got the priviledge of bringing home Curious George, the class "pet" for the weekend. Our task was to chronicle our adventures with George. What follows is our part of the class notebook containing all of George's adventures. The handwritten notes have been typed beside each photo for your convenience. Enjoy. :)

Original artistry by Colby. Can you tell which one is George?

We were so excited to finally meet Curious George, since we are big fans of his. We watch his show and his movie, and of course read his books. We know he is a good little monkey and always very curious, so we knew it would be a great weekend! Welcome, George!

Colby and George played some quiet games like puzzles and Uno and Legos.

George was reminded of his jungle days when he saw the palm tree.... BUT... he got a little *too* curious and dumped out all the Legos! Silly George!

George slept in Colby's cardboard castle during the day, and in Colby's cozy bed at night.

George dreamed about sword-fighting bananas at night (don't worry, George at the bananas before they could get him).

In the morning, George was happy to see we had bananas for his breakfast.

It was a cold, stormy day, so Colby, George and Tyler made a tent and had a picnic lunch inside the house

Turns out, George really likes music. He spent time listening to daddy's ipod, and even tried playing a song himself.

For a special treat, our whole family got to make banana splits with George. George wanted to give Colby a tiny squirt of whipped cream, but OOPS! George got a little too excited again.

We all got to play one of Colby's favorite board games, Disney SceneIt.

(George let mama win)

We made sure to include George in our family devotions and told George how much God loves him. Colby prayed that George wouldn't be a naughty little monkey the next day at Sunday School

George was on his best behavior at Sunday School, where he met Colby's buddy Ethan and his teacher, Mr. Gabe.

George got to meet Colby's great grandma when she came to babysit.

So many fun times were had with George, we couldn't even fit them all. We hope sometime George will be able to come visit again!

Thanks Mrs. Lopez! We heart George!
