Niagara Day 1!

Day one started off GREAT!!! We left the house at 9:45 am. A hole 15 minutes ahead of schedule. Which is quite impressive for traveling with 2 family's and 10 people!! Carter was pretty good and even though I thought he would nap in the car he only slept for 20 mins. He did do some fussing but nothing too bad!

As we were driving we got to see some Canadian Bacon. Poor Pigs!! But the kids loved it! Not the best picture but we were driving 100 km! lol!

After 5 hours and only 1 stop for lunch we made it here in 5 hours. Again impressive for having to sit in customs for 20 minutes and having 3 kids under 4 potty trained. And we never lost each other. Kenny drove right behinds us the entire trip!

As most of you know Frank and I had our wedding & reception here in Niagara 6 years ago on September 26. So we took a family picture in the exact spot we said I do!!! I love this place and I love that we have somewhere special to show our boys where Mommy & Daddy promised forever!

Oh Canada!!! Look at the beauty our AWESOME God created!!! No matter how many times you see it, it's always so majestic!

Of course whats a trip to Niagara without a ride on the Maid of the Mist. ALL 6 kids LOVED IT and no one cried or complained!!!! We all got wet and enjoyed the falls up close!!! I have an awesome video too! I'll upload later!
A view from the boat. These are the horseshoe falls (the Canadian Side)

Day one ended just a great! Both boys were sleeping by 8 pm! And slept the entire night!!! Daddy was worried Nikolas was going to roam the halls so we put his bed infront of the door. Someneeds a xanax!! LOL!!

Carter's 1st Real Haircut!

He's a little mover and it's just hard for me. So I finally took him and he did WONDERFUL and we will be going back.

Take me out to the ballgame...

and the Tiger's won!!!!

The pot garden

Get your head out of the gutter, I know it would not be shock to find out I have pot growing in my yard but thats NOT what I'm talking about.

I planted a garden this year all in pots. My goal is to have another real garden next year but this year it was going to be too much work. So I picked my must haves and planted in pots. My cucumbers are growing great and I have one thats ready to pick but my tomatoes have blossom end rot and I'm really sad about this. I'm going to try and save whats left but not sure it will work.

Craft day

It's so hot and yucky outside that I don't want to leave the AC, so we decided to have craft day today and I must say Nik did an awesome job.

FFF

Front Yard Firday Nigh Fire!!! We had a hillbilly themed night with a front yard fire and all!!!


Our dead tree fire! (Thanks for the wood Kenny! )

Kurt and Mark having a goodtime!

The next day I took this picture, it looked like Kenny was on neighborhood watch, all alone! LMAO! Wonder what the neighbor's thought?

God's wonderful show!

We had a wonderful storm roll through here last night and I couldn't resist the urge to record it. It was so beautiful! Just another reminder of God's powerful doing
