Last week we went on our first family vacation to Cleveland. We spent the week with my brother Peter and his family: Michelle, Ceara and Ethan. We had so much fun with them. They made us feel so welcome and it was great just hanging out. We mostly hung out at their house just talking and relaxing.
Peter singing to Caroline
Elvis Baby!
This was at a really cool vintage toy shop.
Peter has a beautiful lush vegetable garden. He would use his veggies to make the most amazing fresh tasting appetizers. So yummy!
Ethan's band had their first live performance while we were there. Peter set up a stage on their hot-tub. They invited a bunch of friends to play for. Ethan even sang "Sweet Caroline" for Caroline. After the concert Peter set up the projector to shine on the back of their house and we all watched a movie. It was a really fun night. Reagan and I both voted it our favorite night on the vacation.
Love this picture of them. Their faces crack me up!

Playing at their neighborhood pool. Caroline had so much fun playing in the spray-park, pool and playground.

Did somebody get a bite of sand?
Tuesday we drove to Niagara Falls to stay the night. We took the scenic route through Amish country. Niagara was a bit underwhelming.
See the Amish people in their horse and buggy
