Buffalo pt. 2: Niagara Falls!

 Aunt Susan's turn  :)

 

 Official Cave of the Winds picture - before.

Rosie LOVED this!  We went as far up as we could and she went back close to the falls (in the background of this photo) several times!

 Thumbs up from everyone!  We got soaked and it was awesome!!  What a fun time!

 

Rory did well the whole time, as well.  Note that his foot poked through the poncho!  :)
Susan got some funny comments from random people as she walked through the Cave of the Winds carrying Rory.  Some said he was a champ, others thought they looked like an alien with the poncho on.  They both had fun!

Squishing a souvenir penny from Niagara Falls.

Trip to Buffalo, part 1

My dad, Susan, and I drove Rosie and Rory to Buffalo, NY to visit our Grandma B.  Uncle Rick and Aunt Linda had arrived earlier, and my mom, Rob, and everyone else came later in the week to celebrate Grandma's 95th birthday!  We had such a wonderful week visiting with her and catching up with all our long distance relatives!!

 Ice cream break on the way to Buffalo!

 Rosie playing "chess" with Uncle Rick

 

 Uncle Rick and "Smiley"  

Rory did so well this whole visit, being held by so many new faces.  It definitely was a big improvement from a couple months ago!

 The card sharks playing a competitive game of Go Fish.  :)

 Everyone wanted a turn "wearing" Rory when we were out and about.  Here's Uncle Rick's first turn.

 

 We only went for a walk down the street, but it was pretty exhausting!  ;)

 Grandma B. has a dancing flower that sings "You Are My Sunshine," which completely confused Rory.  :)

Aunt Susan explaining the silly flower to Rory

 Rosie watching the boats and birds on the Niagara River

 Grandpa's turn!

 Aunt Linda and Rosie enjoying the swings at the river!

 Rosie and I picked some wildflowers for Grandma B's birthday

Peek-a-boo!

 Happy Birthday, Grandma B!  We had a small celebration on her actual birthday, more from the big birthday bash with everyone to come.
