Buffalo, New York

A few weeks ago we took a family trip out to Buffalo, New York to visit Kade's sisters and their families. Here are just a few highlights, and they are in NO order whatsoever!
We were delayed in the airport for a couple hours because of Hurricane Irene, but fortunately we made it home, and the kids were great!!!
 Mindi made the kids an egg hunt.
 We celebrated Tatum's birthday, and Jade was there to help her out.
 Zoe enjoyed the cake/cookie.
 Zoe is 18 months holding her 3 month old cousin Reed. They weigh the same, but Reed definitely got her beat in the legs department.
 Kristin was our amazing tour guide for Niagara Falls. Here, Jade and Zoe are feeding the birds, and you can see the mist from Niagara Falls in the background.
 We took a family photo at the top looking down the falls. The wind shifted and we were getting rained on the whole time just from the mist of the falls.
 There was a really pretty rainbow at the bottom.
 There was another rainbow coming from the American Falls as well.
 We took the kids to the Aquarium. Zoe loved the seals.
 We went swimming in a friends pool.
 We went to Chuck-E-Cheese
 We went swimming in a lake.
 Here is another from Chuck-E-Cheese. See what I said no order in these photos.
 Kade played Kristin in bball. Kade won, but Kristin was close.
 Kade played bball with his sisters and neice.
 The kids swam in Kristin's pool.
 We got in a few naps!
 We went to a really fun place that had restored carnival rides.


 We all went to the sacred grove. I was quite shocked at how well the kids behaved!
 We tried to take a nice photo outside of Joseph Smith's Barn with the Sacred Grove in the background, but it kind of reminded us of our Christmas Card.
 A group of us at the Hill Cumorah.
 And what is a Smith gathering without wrestling!!! Sorry Mal
It was a great trip and we hope to be able to go back out when the kids are a little bit older!
