Summer Vacations

We took a couple of trips this summer. The kids got to fly on an airplane for the first time and that was exciting for them. We went to Toronto for 2 weeks at the beginning of July. While we were there, we visited Niagara Falls (saw fireworks over the falls on the 4th of July) at both the Canada side and New York side. We went to Palmyra, NY for a little church history. We went to the Toronto Zoo, visited the CN Tower, walked around the downtown Toronto area and had a lot of fun.


We met the "rat man" downtown (ewwwwww rats!)

Our 2nd trip was a family reunion at the beginning of August. Larry's family likes to get together at the Oregon coast (Cape Lookout) and camp for a few days by the beach. This happens every other year and I always look forward to it. We all had a blast! We also visited the Tillamook Cheese Factory. It was during this trip that Larry got a call on his cell phone from a company with a job offer. He accepted it right there (I was listening in on the details and gave him the thumbs up).
