Berry Picking and the River Park

Nana had some homemade Blackberry jam that my kids just loved. She told them that she had picked the berries herself and Ryan thought that sounded SO fun. Since Greg was now with us (Wahoo!) I decided that we could try it out with Aunt Wendy and her kids. It was pretty painful and tricky to get the berries deep inside the bushes, but it was a fun first time experience. Annie loved to just eat the berries, though she didn't love her hands afterword. I can't wait for the promised berry cobbler from Nana.

Since it was SOO hot we decided to try out the other water park in the city. The kids loved this one and luckily a lot of kids shared their boats to race down the "river". Again, why aren't their cool parks like this back home?!
