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!

 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!

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.
