Last Thursday, Mommy and Daddy and I drove in the car
forever! We drove over 6 hours and through 7 states to go visit
my grandpa in Massachusetts! Grandpa lives in a really cute condo on the
water in Cape Cod. We drove all night long and got to Grandpa's at 4:00 in
the morning! I was kind of a rock star and slept the entire time! I did
wake up when we got there and hung out with everyone for a few minutes
before Mommy and Daddy passed out.
The next day, after some well deserved naps, we headed out to Plymouth, MA.
It was a really windy day cause we drove through a Nor'easter to get to New
England. In Plymouth, we got to see a replica of the Mayflower, Plymouth Rock,
and some ducks! (The ducks were the most exciting to me!) Then we had a
nice lunch out and headed back to relax.
On Saturday, Mommy and Daddy and I went to Back Acre Farms
in Middleborough, MA. It was a really cute pumpkin farm! Since we had
been so busy at home, Mommy thought it would be fun to go to a
farm on our trip. She was right...it would have been if it wasn't
super windy again :( I had a lot of fun on the hayride to the pumpkin
patch with Daddy. I even liked walking around for a little while. Then
the wind got pretty bad and I was over it. We did manage to find a
great pumpkin and Daddy got some butternut squash for soup!
When we got home, I took a nap while Mommy and Daddy went out
to lunch. When I woke up, I got to play with Grandpa and Janne! We had
so much fun!
That night, Mommy's Uncle Joey and Aunt Donna went out to dinner
with us at a restaurant named Piper Beau's. The restaurant is actually
owned by someone from Baltimore! They even had a Baltimore Ravens
flag hanging outside! Dinner was really fun and I entertained the whole place
by running laps around the bar, trying to go into the kitchen, and begging
to sit on barstools! Since I looked so cute, no one was bothered by it!
The next day was a big day! Sunday was the big Ravens vs. Patriots
game! Mommy and Daddy got me all dressed up in my Ravens gear
and we posed for some pictures. Then they went back to Piper Beau's,
where they had reserved seats (!) and I got to hang out with Grandpa
and Janne for the day! We had so much fun! And even though the
Ravens lost it in overtime, Mommy and Daddy seemed like they
had a good time too.
That night, we had a nice New England dinner of clam cakes and
fried clams (well, I didn't, but Mommy and Daddy did!) and got rested
up for our trek back to Maryland. We left around 10:30 Sunday night
and got back home at about 4:30 in the morning on Monday. I actually
woke up on the ride around New York and stayed awake until
we were almost in Delaware!
We had such a fun trip and are already planning our next trip back!
(The next time may involve a train or airplane though!) Thank you
so much to Grandpa and Janne for letting us crash their condo
for the weekend! We love you!
