Niagara Falls

We went on vacation to Niagara-on-the-lake, Canada at the end of August. It was a wonderful vacation with Granny, Papa, Chrissy, Uncle Dan & Aunt Anne-Marie! We all stayed in a house on the lake, just outside the little town and had a great time. Jack & Maggie enjoyed getting pretty much free run of the house, which was very big and allowed for lots of, well, running!

Including stopping for lunch, gas and a quick diaper change, it only took us 8 hours to get there.






Only Mickey Mouse Clubhouse would do on this trip- meaning "M-I-C-K-E-Y" is engraved in my brain for all eternity!

Maggie slept some of the drive



Jack didn't sleep at all!



We went swimming in the big pool, that the kids had NO FEAR about

Daddy & Mommy got to enjoy some wine tasting with Chrissy, Aunt Anne-Marie & Uncle Dan while Papa & Granny enjoyed their grand kids

Niagara Falls!







Granny's only wish for the trip was to go on Maid of the Mist



Maggie slept through it



Jack ate goldfish crackers and tolerated the blue tarp



Rainbow



Double rainbow...do you see it?



The drive home was a little bit longer, but it didn't help that we were stuck in line at customs for an hour. Granny ended driving up our Accord the day after we all left (bit of an issue involving her passport expiration) so Brian and I each drove separate home, since we had rented a car. The drive is a perfect distance for us and we love going to Canada, I think it is a definite family vacation spot for years to come!
