#117 of 365~Greetings from Buffalo!

Hello from Buffalo!  The land of chicken wings and pizza, Niagara Falls and Fantasy Island,  the Buffalo Bills and my Fathers family.  After being told by doctors that my stress level was waaaay to high, Nick asked if I would like to go visit my family in Buffalo for a few weeks-of course I said "Yes!"  While he wasn't able to come with, it's the best anniversary gift he could have ever given me.  Being amongst my family here has already helped this still grieving heart and I love being able to relax and refresh away from Omaha (it gives me new perspective) and I've only been in town two days!
Right away, things got crazy as we played a super funny game called, "Who Am I" with my Great-Cousin Tina, her daughter Jayla, and my Great-Great Cousins Braden and Lincoln.
Such Characters!
Then it was off to Fantasy Island, a humble little amusement park I remember coming to as a kid and hearing stories about from my aunts.  My cousin Shayla and I hit our all time favorite rides that we ONLY ride with each other-the teacups-and then we were off paddling in a canoe yes, canoes  at an amusement park-and riding this crazy spinny thing called the "devil's pit."  Let's just say I felt that ride down to the pit of my stomach and realized just how old I'm really getting!
After spending time on several rides and splashing in the water park, we headed home for our annual "Welcome to Buffalo Dinner" of pizza and wings.  LOVE it here!!!
