Another Trip to Niagara!

Last week we took a little family vacation up to Niagara Falls and spent a few days there!! Our hotel was on the American side and we did a few things on this side but we mainly wanted to crossover into Canada because we hadn't done that yet, so we made sure to pack our passports and we ventured on over to Canada!! 
Our first stop was to the Aquarium of Niagara.

There is a street on the Canadian side near the Falls that is almost like a mini Vegas Strip with all sorts of fun things to do and look at. One place that caught Grayer's eye was this fun Lego exhibit.
I thought this Lego Niagara Falls was cool
We went to the Rain Forest Cafe for lunch
On our walk back to the car we got to see this beautiful Rainbow.
The next day we crossed over to Canada again to visit the Butterfly Conservatory. It was WAY WAY cool!!!
If you look really close you can see the butterfly that landed on Grayer's hat!

This is an opossum, Grayer wouldn't touch the scorpion so the guy that was showing us these animals got out something a little more cuddly for us to pet:)

SNOWpril

So here we are nearing the end of April and this morning we woke up to loads of wet snow on the ground! We have really been enjoying the outdoors with our beautiful Spring weather, and with snow on the ground I thought that would hold us indoors for the day, but NOPE Grayer saw the snow and immediately started begging to go outside and play... I should have known that would be his reaction:)
So outside we went!!
