2012 East Coast Trip: Binghamton

Finally we went to Binghamton, New York where Alan lives. He gave us a tour of where he worked.

And we drove to Ithaca to see the town and waterfalls.

Later in the week the rest of the family flew in for Alan's wedding. We all stayed in the same hotel.

The wedding was a lot of fun together!

The day after we rode one of Binghamton's several carousels, and we went to the zoo.

We had dinner with Katie's dad at his place. He made a delicious spread including the locally distinctive salt potatoes and chicken Spiedie.

Camden napped for a couple hours in the hammock, breezes rocking her occasionally.

Katie picked some vegetables from the garden and showed them to Cami.

Cami decided to conveniently store them all in her shirt. ;-)

We laughed so hard as she seriously counted them in and out!

After we traveled back home, Jessi stayed with us a while longer in Seattle, and life slowly returned to normal.
