niagara falls

Here's the first installment of some thoughts, highlights, and photos of our trip to Buffalo for my cousin Karen's wedding.

We took the kids to see the falls each of the last two days. Saturday we viewed the falls from the American side.

The mist from the horseshoe falls is visible from miles away. The whole experience is breathtaking.

Here's a shot of Natalie and Naomi standing atop the American Falls (right in between bridal veil fall and the American falls...it's 170+ feet to the bottom)...

Here we see the three crazies mugging for the camera at Three Sisters Islands near the falls.

Today we pack up to head back home. It's been great to see all the amazing sites and do some pretty cool stuff. But the best part, by far, was just being able to hang out with family that we love (and...they really know how to have a good time). It's been awesome spending time with Aunt Jenny, Uncle David, my dad, and my sister Allison (we also managed to squeeze a little time in with my newly wedded cousin, Karen and her sister Jamie). We all decided that we don't see each other often enough. We're going to try to correct that.
