New Adventures & New Friends!

bye-bye-milo-4
Milo saying good-bye to the candy dish filled with Lindt Chocolate…yum!
Today was mine and Milo’s last day of adventures before he climbs back into his SMTU (that’s short for Snail Mail Transporter Unit) and travels across the states to visit Rooty toot Rhonda Roo. She’s his next wonderful hostess on his whirlwind vacation and I know they’ll become the best of friends REAL FAST! Who could not love Rhonda Roo?
But before I wrapped him up as snug as a bug and sent him on his way, he wanted to pick up something sweet for Rhonda Roo. So off to Down Town Disney we went.bye-bye-milo-1
As we were walking by we say a chef with an alligator, crawdad, and a fish in his big pot . Milo had never seen any of these creatures before so he wanted to get a closer look.
bye-bye-milo-5
Hubby was trying desperately to ignore us as Milo posed and I took his picture.
We found what we came for then headed home to our cozy little cottage.
bye-bye-milo-6
Milo wasn’t sure he was ready to leave me and my little cottage, but I assured him that his adventures are only beginning and there are so many new friends to be made. He stayed on my head until we were ready to go to bed, but I think he was really counting all the gray hairs up there. Silly bug! I will miss him terribly!!!!
Rhonda Roo, he'll be in the mail real soon.

I must say, I got a frightened when I saw Milo in that pot!!! He certainly has over come all of his fears. I admire the way Milo is not regretting all those years spent in the closet, but rather moving forward and embracing life! Poor, sweet, adorable hubby! Cori, what a wonderful, magical job you did with your many Milo posts. Just too much fun to be legal!

I've enjoyed reading about Milo's adventures- he certainly has had a fun time with you as tour guide! Farewell Milo!

what a delightful way you have described your adventures with Milo. You took me back home to Anaheim and Fullerton. I miss the sunny days of my homeland. But you and Milo made me smile and remember. Did Milo get to the beach?

Hi Cori!
LOL ...I'm sure Milo had a good tie visiting Disneyland ... such a cute idea!

It's been forever since I've come over for a visit -- so sorry --I ahve been playing catch up since we got home from vacation.
Did you see that Tara is back? It was so good to hear from her!

Hugs, Pat

Rooty toot Rhonda Roo,
I tried to come and visit you.
In Milo's SMTU I placed my toe,
but the rest of my body refused to go.
The box began to break in half
as I twisted and tweeked my little calf.
Hubby was alarmed when he came through the door,
at the thought that he may see me no more.
So here I stay while Milo goes
I know you'll care for him as if he were your own.
He carries with him some sweets for you and hopes he will see you very soon.
I can't wait to see the adventures you'll share. Oh how I wish I could be there...to share them with you!!!

Let us know when our little darling bug boy arrives safe and sound. I sent him first class-3 day business so he should arrive by Saturday.

xoxo Cori

Yes, Cori, the competition must have been hard on your hushband...we often enough neglect the feelings of the man while we tend to the feelings of bugs...Make it right now you have sent Milo on his road again, that is all you can do now. By the way...he looks like a kind and patient man to me; you'll gain his heart back in no time.

Gosh, I've been missing all of Milo's wonderful adventures these past few days! Somehow I knew he'd be visiting Disneyland, and I truly enjoyed reading all about the fun he had there - wow! What a very lucky bug he is. And very cute too.

I know you'll miss him.
