It has been such a joy having Vincent with us. When April and the kids came down to visit in Feb/March, Vincent met so many friends his age and was in a euphoric state the whole time he was here. He loved chasing "small" game with his bee-bee gun, riding bike everywhere and anywhere, and the late night games of capture the flag. He was in heaven. That's why it was easy to put air miles into sending him down again this April. I assured his mom (April) that he would be so easy to have around and a huge help to us as we get ready to move back to AK.
He HAS been a huge help and it has been so wonderful watching him with all his new friends. He went on a dirt bike camping trip with his uncle Zach. Some of his favorite daily activities are having air-soft wars and playing capture the flag, at night, in his camo garb with all his buddies...and of course taking out the trash for his favorite Auntie. :) Yesterday he called me out of the house because "he had something to show me." It sounded urgent, so I rushed out to find him holding a live snake with a big cheesy grin on his face. It was his friend Carson's pet, nothing dangerous, but it thrilled me to see him having such good guy fun.
Vince and Miah will be traveling with Zach in the truck/trailer all the way to Alaska. I am flying home with the younger two and will probably be home a good two weeks before them. It will be quite an eventful trip. They will get to see the Grand Canyon, Yellow Stone, Bamff and a visit to Cody, WY to Uncle Dave and Aunt Carol's house.
