Max & Patches had a nice visit together over Spring Break. They became very close.

Max is saying “goodbye” to Patches as we return her safely (and alive) back to Almaden Country School. Whew! :-)


Patches comes back for more harassment at the Colyer household! :-)

Max insists that Patches needs some grass. She is a grass lover for sure!

Max introduces Patches to his new McDonald’s toy (“Jewel” the girl bird)

Good Friends (in Max’s mind) :-)

Emily & Patches. Emily is thrilled about Patches return.


Poor Patches! This is going to be a looooooooong weekend for the little sweet pig! Here she is in Emily’s baby swing!

And, here she is in a miniature wooden rocking chair. I failed to mention that she has already gone for a ride on Max’s scooter, she has been pushed in a pink stroller & carried around in a purple handbag.

Emily & Max were running outside in the rain to pick fresh green grass for her! She loved it!!!!!!!!! I am hoping Monday rolls around quickly and she is not affected by the crazy Colyer kids!

Max brought “Patches” the school guinea pig home for the weekend

Patches had quite a busy weekend at the Colyer household

She was taken on a few stroller rides around the house and outside in the hood


Emily enjoyed Patches visit too

She had fun feeding her carrots. Max refused to touch carrots ’cause they are a vegetable!
