Family Reunion

Last week we headed to Western New York for the Ried family reunion. Brooklynn did surprisingly well on the plane rides, and we learned quickly that she loves the window seat. After landing in Buffalo we headed to Niagara Falls for a night. We stayed on the Canadian side and went to the fireworks show that evening. Thursday we drove to Olean to stay with Jim & Juanita. Brooklynn warmed up quickly to everyone and was determined to be the star of the show. We had family gatherings everyday from Thursday to Sunday, with a BBQ on Sunday at Great Grandma and Grandpa's house.

After the BBQ we drove to Russell, PA to visit Aunt Roxy & Uncle Don and were fortunate enough to be joined by other cousins and their kids. Brooklynn had a good time playing with Addison, her 3rd cousin (I think). Monday afternoon we went back to Olean and had dinner with the small group of us left in town.

Tuesday we spent hanging out with Great Grandma and Grandpa while Brooklynn entertained us, running around and playing peek-a-boo with Grandma.

It was a great visit and wonderful to see all the family! We were proud of how well Brooklynn did and how much fun she had! We're looking forward to going back again in two years.
