Thanks!  It's been a very enjoyable experience so far as your co-mod.Our weekend began with the 8 hour drive to Toronto.  Driving through upstate NY was a first for me and I was so excited to see Niagara Falls from a distance.Friday night I got to see my FSIL for the first time in a few months.  It was also my first chance to meet several of the BMs and the two co-MsOH as well.  They picked a great hotel that was right in downtown and we enjoyed a lovely dinner on Friday night with all the men and women together.Friday night we split up and the men went to do some 'gentlemanly' things while the ladies went bar hopping.  We enjoyed a few drinks and then went back to our rooms to chill out.Saturday we went to a GORGEOUS spa.  We enjoyed the steam room, pool and spa tub as a group before breaking for our individual treatments.  My mud wrap was absolutely amazing!  The other gals also had great massages and facials as well.Saturday night we enjoyed a lovely dinner at an Italian restaurant followed by some bar hopping around town.  By the time the night was over, our feet were tired and we were thrilled with the results.  The beautiful bride was ready to be married!Sunday we had brunch as a group and then we were off on our way.  Most of the group left for their homes and DH and I were off to spend some quality time with a family member I have in Canada.  It was wonderful!Monday I was able to get up close and personal with Niagara Falls.  It's amazing there!Now, I'm back in the states and working and wanting a loooong nap!

banana:  My DD and new SIL went to Niagara Falls for their HM.  They absolutely loved it there.  DH and I went about 4 years ago, and were mesmerized by the beauty and power of the falls.  I think until you've stood by the falls and looked up (or out) at them, you can't really grasp how amazing it is!
