I have been dreading this week, do I pick where I grew up where the big excitement was going to the mall or do I pick where we live now which I am not very familiar with since we moved here in May? So I decided that I am going to list 5 activities that we like to do locally.
#1 - Minuteman National Park. Marc and I love walking the battle road trail where the American Revolution started with the "shot heard round the world." There is so much history on these trails. Sadly Violet and I only went once this last summer with friends. I hope to go a lot more this year as it is great exercise on awesome trails. We have also toured Louisa May Alcott's home which I highly recommend to anyone who is in the area.
#2 - Babies & Books at the Library. Violet loves the story time they have for 2 and under at the library. I love it too because us moms usually stick around after and chat which is always nice.
#3 - Prescott Park. I love Prescott Park, which is near where I grew up. Marc and I were married there in 2008 and my parents were married there in 1979. It has a lot of special memories from my entire life. It is also so pretty with the flowers and fountains.
that is so awesome that you and marc and your parents got married in the same place! dave and i share a wedding anniversary with his parents. :)
ReplyDeleteI wish we could get into the story time at the library, but there are SO many moms, you have to register and the wait list is like 30 moms. Those sound like great places
ReplyDeleteI live in such a small town that we have very little to do. I wish so badly we lived closer to the zoo. Our closest one is an hour and a half away. You are right about the zoo being good exercise and lots of fun for Violet.
ReplyDeleteThose pictures of Violet are SO cute! Reagan and I love the zoo. We go at least twice a month because you are exactly right .. it's great exercise and she absolutely adores going!!
