Stay..No We Must Go!

We received the following from Emmitt the Pug:

emmitt is bummed you are staying home. he says, not him. he is on hiz way to texas to see howie and all the p's.ps he is bringing all the food he can smuggle out of the house.

(see picture of all the stuff emmitt has already snatched for the trip. how did he carry it all!)

And then we heard from our host, Howie Pee Pants:

Oh Hey, I saved you guys an old banana peel and it is getting brown. If you don't hurry up and get here, I'm gonna be forced to eat it. We can't be lettin good food go ta waste.your conservationistic puggypal, Howie Pee

And then Howie sent this as well:

Hey Coopsterman, what time is the pawty arrivin? I haven't told mom you are all comin to the house. It will be a sprize.Your good pal,PeeMan in Texas

Cooper doesn't want to go now because he has never had a sleepover with Howie and he isn't sure if they have enough beds and sometimes he wets his when he is away from home. (Is this a disaster waiting to happen or what?) Anyway, I will talk to Cooper and see what we can arrange.

Obviously we cannot stay here in Oregon when others are counting on us.
