Uncle Bret (Abby's Brother) came to visit us a week ago. Livie was a little unsure at first of this strange man living in her house...she tried to hide in Bailey's crate.

She quickly realized that Uncle Bret is very nice, and even included him in her nightly round of "kisses." (Unfortunately for him, he came after Bailey in the "kisses" lineup.)

Uncle Bret took Mama and Livie to one of the renowned restaurants in Portland, "Street & Co." Livie wanted to make sure that she looked her best for her big night on the town.

Since Uncle Bret is the "foodie," we decided to try cooking lobsters at home again with his help.

As you can see below, the lobsters turned out much better this time with his help. Thankfully, we didn't have "lobster sushi" again!

We all went to see Portland Head Light, one of the most famous lighthouses in the U.S. It was a beautiful day and lots of fun.

Dada and Livie played while Mama and Uncle Bret read all the plaques.

We loved this photo that Bret took on his iPhone of a sailboat on the ocean. The photo was taken only about an hour after the photo of us in front of the lighthouse. As you can see, storms move quickly here in Maine.
We think this would make a great "Demotivational Poster." One idea that we have for a caption is, "
Have you ever felt like a dark cloud is following you? It is!"

Uncle Bret, thanks for sharing all these great photos that you took on your trip. We miss you! Come back and see us again soon!

Good times, Brad/Ab/Livie. I already miss those night time kisses from Livie!
Hey Ab, before my next visit, look for more plaques for us to read. (Crack me up, Brad...)

Congrats Bret you got them to go see a lighthouse that is quite the accomplishment ;) See you guys soon... and don't worry I'll bribe livie with Cavanaugh's to beat Bailey in the line-up.
