Niagara Falls and Halloween

Since Teri spent the last week puffy cheeked and bleary eyed recovering from wisdom teeth extraction (ahem, no pictures), here are some pictures of our recent trip to Niagara Falls and our Halloween pie.

Inspired by the Jim and Pam wedding on "The Office," we decided to drive up to Niagara Falls and pay a visit to our friendly Neighbors to the North.We stayed on the Canadian side of The Falls and enjoyed a crisp, sunny day exploring this natural marvel. In full tourist fashion, we took a ferry boat ride to the base of The Falls. We learned that there are, in fact, three water falls that make up Niagara Falls: American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and Horseshoe Falls. It was pretty spectacular to observe the volume of water that constantly passes over.



We also took advantage of the "Behind the Falls Tour" which lead down dank tunnels embedded in the rock behind Horseshoe Falls.

Back in Cleveland... We "ain't got no home in this world anymore"... at least not at the moment, so the gracious parents of our favorite sister-in-law invited us over to hand out candy and bake in a real kitchen.
Armed with Grandma Wanda's recipe, we baked up a deliciously rich Jack-o-lantern pumpkin pie and enjoyed good company.

Lucy and Matt, your Grandma Beanie sends her love!
