nova scotia.....here i come!

i finally got my ticket home booked! i actually fly into saint john now (thanks to a wonderful girl known as mallory mae!) but i'm very much looking forward to adventures in nova scotia and showing teddy all it's beauty of the summer. the following are pictures of some of the things i'm most looking forward to:

the annapolis valley! my home and home to some of the best fruits and vegetables i have ever tasted! (and i've been to a lot of places!)


i'm also looking forward to hiking cape split. it is a great little hike and so beautiful.


i'm looking forward to camping.....anywhere in nova scotia. i love it!


i'm looking forward to the beaches.....especially carter's beach! i can't wait!


i'm really looking forward to picking and eating as may blueberries as i can. they are so delicious! (as well as any other in season fruits and veggies the valley farms have to offer!)


in honor of my dad's retirement last summer, a wonderful friend gave our family a free weekend stay at her cottage/farm house near antigonish, which isn't far from the beautiful cape breton. we will all meet there after my week in saint john. we will be going for a drive around the cabot trail, since we will be so close. looking forward!


BUT.......aside from all of what nova scotia has to offer and what it has that makes me happy, i am MOST looking forward to mallory mae! she is the best thing that has happened to me (and probably our family!) and it is so hard to only see her once a year. we skype often and she even goes to the computer saying "auntie! auntie!". bless her heart! i can't wait to see the look on her face when i'm no longer the "auntie in the computer". i can't wait to scoop her up and squeeze her. see you very soon mallory mae!
