Canada, eh?

Hey y'all! I just realized I never blogged about my trip to Canada. The initial plan was for Keitra and I to blog the entire way, since we DROVE. Yes, you heard right...we drove all the way to Canada..10 people!  I love my family!  So when they first said we would be driving to Canada, Keitra and I were like uhhhh we will just get plane tickets.  But after mom assured us that this would be a great family bonding experience, we gave in.  Our goal was to stop along the way to shorten the trip, and to visit states we have never visited.

Our first stop was in Ohio.  We stayed in Ohio for the night so our driver(s) could rest their sweet little eyes.

After dinner and breakfast the following morning, we continued on our journey.  We actually had to pull over in Pennsylvania because I had a phone interview (haha).  Between Keitra, my cousin Tila, and myself, we were thoroughly entertained!  After a few more hours we rolled into New York!

If you were good in geography (cough cough) you know that Niagra Falls, Canada is riiiiiiiiight by the state of New York. Soooo, taaa daaaaah we made it to CANADA!!!

I can't even begin to describe the view of the falls.  It was absolutely breathtaking!  The American side was beautiful, but the Canadian side was absolutely stunning! It was definitely scary at times. We took a "Journey Behind the Falls". It seemed like a modern underground railroad.  I mean seriously it seemed to be underwater. I can't hardly explain, but you get my drift.  Take a look below...
Snapping pictures before we got wet!
Journey Behind the Falls

Even my 81 yr old mamaw had a blast #deuces
This view was terrifying yet amazing!

There is no way I could fit our entire vacation into this post, and I know the pictures do no justice but just now we had a BLAST. We were there for a week and enjoyed every.single.minute. of it!  I'm so thankful for my family. They have always given us the opportunity to travel, see new places, and go on new adventures...such a blessing! I'll leave you with a few pictures!! Enjoy!

iLOVE my baby brother!
