Well, Mr. Burby and Powder came home on Monday, since I was allowed to show them off for my 4-H meeting yesterday. On Monday, I immediately tried to dress them up in the costumes I bought. Powder's tutu was, surprisingly enough, too small. I dressed her up in the Cowboy costume. It fit like a charm and looked adorable. I tried Burby's King costume, but that was too small as well. Plus, he kept trying to back out of it. When I put the crown on, he looked like he wanted to die. I decided not to make him wear it. Gracie the cat was eyeing up Powder, as if she wanted to hunt her. I made sure to keep a close eye on both of them.
The next day, Burby crowed at 6 in the morning, much later than the last time. I guess he likes to sleep in now. Either that, or it's because the sun is coming up later in the morning. I didn't get to spend that much time with them because of school. Mr. Burby showed Powderpuff his favorite spot back by the mirror, and how to eat Nerds. They ended up taking a nap back there by the mirror. Power slept on a pile of dirty clothes. When it was getting time to go, I threw the cape on Burby's back, just to see how it looked again. Turns out if it's just laying on his back, it looks the right size and he doesn't mind.
We had to put them in a pet porter, which they didn't like in the least. It was raining out, and we got to the meeting place a bit early. When we got inside, I wanted to let Burby and Powder out, but the 4-H leader said not right now. She wanted to keep everyone's attention. Turns out that on that same day, someone decided in bring in a little dog. I felt like Burby was getting upstaged. I got to let them out at the end of the meeting, and they were a hit. Everyone loved the outfits, especially Powder's. Powderpuff is usually pretty flappy, so I was a bit wary when a little kid decided to pick her up. She behaved perfectly. Just sat in his hands without a fuss.
Sadly, they couldn't stay for a few more days. They had to go back today. Neither seemed to mind too much though. Burby resumed being Alpha Roo and Powder began to sit. Star got out when I opened the door, but I managed to get him back inside. Stella and Fudgie sat with me, which was a nice surprise.
