We had a wonderful, yet bittersweet evening at the Porretta's last evening. Mike's brother Vince is headed to Edmonton, Canada to pursue his doctorate in linguistics. While classes don't start until September, he is headed out this week to get settled in his new place before the rigors of school begin. We enjoyed some wonderful food thanks to Grandma Mary and just enjoyed our time together as a family.
Maddie got an early birthday gift as well, since Uncle Vince won't be here for her party in September.
She loved her dog birthday card and is in LOVE with her newest stuffed animal. She is all about dogs right now.When Maddie is not happy the one thing that gets her in a good mood is seeing a dog. She says 'doggie-doggie' and just grins and smiles.
We are so sad that we won't get to see Uncle Vince on a regular basis, but are so happy for this new phase of his life. Even though he won't be across town anymore we are excited to get to talk to him via SKYPE which Uncle Vince set us up with. Now thanks to our new webcam we will get to share with him all of our new words, dance moves and fun times as Miss Maddie grows up.
We Love you Uncle Vince!
