Mimi's Vacation Fridays!

Brielle's favorite Mimi has been using some of her vacation time on Fridays rather than take off an entire week. This past Friday was one of those days and we made sure to make plans with our favorite Mimi! Mimi called at 8:30 to tell us she was on her way over having already had her oil changed! Brielle was still sleeping and Mama was awake, but not out of bed yet! We were able to leave the house by 10ish (and Mimi witnessed Brielle's new morning routine of "I no YIKE that" to EVERYTHING I try to get her to wear!) and headed to The Blueberry Farm in Hanson to pick some blueberries! We will be making a blueberry cake this weekend and possibly some blueberry pancakes!
Brielle did pick a few blueberries, but they weren't always "blue" or a "good size!"

She insisted on having her phone and Glow coming blueberry picking with us.


And would only wear her water shoes which kept falling off!
We then headed to Nelson Park in Plymouth to check out the Water Park, playground and beach!

We had lunch at the snack bar (pizza), took a walk down to the water, (very rocky and kind of muddy, not the best beach, but Brielle didn't care!) played on the slides and swings at the playground, and left there to go get some ice cream at Peaceful Meadows! For anyone who hasn't been to Nelson Park, it's a great place to take kids. It's free to park, but parking is limited so get there early or be prepared to walk a bit. You can bring a lunch because they have plenty of space to have a picnic, or there is a snack bar that has drinks, pizza, hotdogs, and ice cream treats.
We made it home in time for Brielle to go in for a nap and Mimi and Mama did some "playing around" on Shutterfly with a whole bunch of pictures! We ended the day with Thai food for dinner and Red Sox/Yankees game!
I'd say it was a fun vacation day, wouldn't you??
