A Niagara Experience

Last month Emberlie visited her first Wonder of the World - Niagara Falls, NY.  We took a trip with Jon's whole family to the American side of the Falls and even rode the Maid of the Mist (Emberlie hung out with Mimi and Uncle Matt at the top).  Addi and I ventured up the stairs to get closer to the Falls after the boat ride.  




Then we walked around Goat Island to get a better view of the Falls.  It had been 9 years since my last trip to Niagara Falls, so it was fun to get to see the sights again.



On the next day Emberlie got to meet her friend Liam, Aimee (my college roommates) baby boy.  He's about six weeks younger than Emberlie, but close in size!


We also had the best chicken wing...EVER...at the Village Inn on Grand Island.  Unfortunately, I ate them before getting a picture!  And visited Vidler's Five and Dime in East Aurora, a huge drugstore from the 1930's.  I found a cool direction manual on Celtic Tatting by Rozella Linden, another project for me.  

 Fun with Auntie Terry and the cousins!
