Quando Chega em Casa O Meu Pai..

(I'm So Glad When Daddy Comes Home)

Vincente was so happy to see Russ on Thursday. They had a great time together, of course, so I thought I would post a few pictures so everyone can see how much Vincente loves his Papai. 

Like Father, Like Son

At the park Vincente thought it was the best thing to play with Papai. They chased each other around the playground, Vince got thrown in the air (several feet!) and loved it, of course. "Again, Again!" I love the picture of them on the slide - you can't see Russ' face as well as you can see Vincente's, but let me assure you their looks are both of pure bliss. They were in heaven for those few hours they got to be together. 

They played together like they had never been apart. Vincente loved on Papai, tried to impress Papai with his amazing speech skills (and knowledge of everything around him) "Tree" (which soon became "avore") "Truck!" (which he quickly changed to "camiao")... It was neat to hear Vincente speak so much Portuguese. It was like Russ hadn't been gone at all. 

I can't wait until we get to live with him! As far as an update that way goes - the Army will PCS us to California as soon as I'm ready (which will be in January when we're done with all my schooling and Christmas stuff and wedding stuff). Meanwhile, we may spend Thanksgiving in Monterey with Russ, or he may be able to come to Utah for Thanksgiving! We're keeping our fingers crossed for the latter - his family would LOVE to have him home one more time before we move away permenantly. We will definitely keep you posted on the moving we do!
