This past Saturday, Molly and I decided to travel to Cape Breton and surprise Grandma for Mother's Day. We left around 6:00 am, stopped in to visit the Tulloch clan in Bedford for a couple of hours, and arrived in Cape Breton around 4:30 pm. It was a long drive, but well worth it for the look on Grandma's face when we walked through the door.
To celebrate Mother's Day, we went to church in the morning and then Grandpa took the girlies (Molly, Grandma, Tante Kendra and I) to the Inn on the Canal for brunch. It was very yummy and our tummies were super stuffed when we left. We then headed to Point Michaud Beach because it was such a nice sunny day. It was Molly's first visit to the beach and she had so much fun. As soon as I put her in the sand, she started grabbing the sand and putting it in her mouth. I thought she would stop once she tasted it, but no way...she kept eating it!!! It was very funny. She loved having her bare toes in the sand too. That evening, Grandpa took Molly, Grandma and I for a ride on his Gator. We drove all the way up to visit Uncle Jerome and Aunt Annette.
The rest of our visit was spent hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa and visiting with Molly's cousins, Auntie Muriel and Tante Kendra. Lobster season starts tomorrow, so things were pretty busy and we didn't get to see Uncle Claude and Uncle Blaire much. We're going back at the beginning of June, so we'll see them then.
Molly got two more new teeth while we were in Cape Breton. They are on the left side in the back. That makes ten teeth in total. Holy choompers!! She also started blowing kisses while we were there and that served to melt Grandma and Grandpa's hearts (Mommy's too).
We were supposed to come back yesterday (Wednesday), but we extended our visit another day and only came home today. The drive home seemed much longer than the drive there. Must have been because we were so excited to surprise Grandma.
All the pictures from our adventures are posted below...enjoy!
