They came on Monday evening! We just chilled at home and had a nice dinner together!
Tuesday we headed to Rochester. There was a church there that Garrett wanted to check out because of the awesome architecture. The outside of the church just looked normal, but as soon as you stepped inside everything changed! It was designed by Louis Khan. The inside is all concrete. The picture doesn't do the architecture justice, it was incredible! The cool part was the ceiling and the walls.
This is what I found in the ladies bathroom! YIKES!
We also saw the George Eastman House. He was the guy who founded Kodak. We toured the George Eastman House and the International Museum of Photography and Film. It was pretty neat!
We also walked around the "High Falls Historic District."
In the historic part of Rochester, you get to see this hundred foot water fall.
There is a pedestrian bridge you can walk across and enjoy the view!
Ciella thought she was so funny walkin' backwards!
Like father, like daughter!

Ciella's chocolate all over her face also looks alot like Garretts stubble!
Heres Cadence showing off her "hippo teeth"
(thanks Becca for the name)
These little girls were so cute walking around holding hands!
We had dinner at a little BBQ place that wasn't that bad, until...
I found a hair that had been cooked into the corn bread I was eating!!!!
On Wednesday we decided to just hang out by the Niagara River.
We ate lunch and feed the birds!
I loved these pictures of Ciella! The river in the background is so pretty.
Ciella and Cadence had so much fun feeding the birds!
Later that day we made some cup cakes and Ciella turned into a little Martha Stewart!
On Thursday we headed to Niagara Falls, the American side. We took a fun, but WET ride on the "Maid of the Mist" its a boat that takes you right up to the base of Niagara Falls. We got pretty wet. And we took no pictures because it was so wet we didn't want our camera to get ruined.
After our boat ride we headed home and let the girls play in the pool outside! They had a blast!
So did Uncle Clay!
That night we made smores on the BBQ!
On Friday we went to Palmyra.
Garrett's brother hadn't been there since he was just a little boy.
It was fun to show him all the church history sites!
Clay and Ciella atop the Hill Cumorah!
The view from the Hill Cumorah
Cadence had so much fun exploring
Ciella had so much fun running around and again wouldn't hold still for any pictures.

They left Saturday. And that was their trip!
We are sad that Grandpa Bascom and Gramma Great couldn't make it.
We hope they can all come again soon!

I thought that thing in the bathroom said, "used condoms, they're free!" And I thought, of course they are free, they are used. Nasty. I am glad they aren't used afterall. Did you take a few?
