Niagra Falls

We spent a few days in Niagra.  The first night we spent at a hotel near the falls.  It was a nice area to explore.  The second night we spent at Great Wolf Lodge.  It was fantastic.  Melinda is already planning a return visit in a few months. See the pictures here!

Good news.  The cats just went to the vet and they are all fine!  In fact the Vet said that Mercedes (Cedes) has the teeth of a 2 year old cat!  She’s 9 by the way.   It was quite the scene taking all 3, luckily Grandpa watched Rebecca, otherwise it would have been chaos.

Well, our paperwork is in China.  We have a LID (Log in date) of August 9, 2006.   I don’t imagine we’ll hear anything until January 2008.  We are hoping to travel to China and be back home before the Summer 2008 Olympics in Beijing.  Keep us in your thoughts!
