Hi Penelope and Mikaela!
Happy summer!
You look like you were ready for another big adventure as you stood outside your Toronto house a few hours before you started your big trip.
And you are!
You're coming home to Alberta!
Calgary, to be exact.
Now Calgary is about 3 hours from Edmonton.
That's still pretty far.
But it's still a heck of a lot closer than Ontario!
We are so excited to have you back in Alberta!
And we know you are excited to be coming back too!
But we know that you will miss Toronto, and all the friends and fun you had there.
Like your Karate, Penelope.
And your ballet, Mikaela.
And that's OK.
Because Canada is a very big country.
And it's a very connected country too.
So all your friends will be able to connect with you!
No matter where they are!
With Facebook and FaceTime!
And I know that Auntie Shawna and I are very excited to see you in a couple of weeks!
We want to hear all about the adventures on your trip!
Like the neat pool in Regina your mom told me about
The weather in Alberta is a little cool right now to be honest.
But you girls are definitely our rays of sunshine!
We love you Penelope and Mikaela!
See you soon!
Uncle Mike
