Civic Long Weekend

We were baby freeeee on Saturday of the long weekend! So we planned a day trip just the two of us to Bayfield.

 We dropped the goober monster off at Aleksy's parents place in the morning and headed straight to Bayfield from there. It's not too long of a drive. We wandered through the shops on the main street first then walked along the beach and over to the marina!

In our sailboat dreams, we see ourselves docked in Bayfield soit was nice to just walk by the boats and talk about what we want for a sailboat!
After our wandering, we found a little pub that we wanted to stop at for a drink, but it had a 25 minutes wait. So we spent it eating ice cream! Pina Coloda froyo actually. Friggin yum. Aleksy got rum and raisin because he's an old lady.

Just enough filler that we weren't tempted to have food at the pub (sine we brought our own for a bbq!).
This was the pub... we both went with a beer. Nothing quite like a cold beer on a hot day. I was actually eyeing up the bubbly but it was $16 a glass for sparkling wine. I can get a bottle for 12! This beer was a little stronger than my usual liking but it was nice to try a different craft beer.
We got a bit of late afternoon beach time in, then fired up the bbq right on the beach. Usually when we smell the delicious bbq smoke, it's someone elses awesome food but this time it was us!! On a side note... potato salad is not freezable. It was basically water and we had no side potato salad for our bbq!
Beach bbq complete with a little white wine. But we're super discreet with red solo cups!

(lets pretend my stomach isn't a completely different persons skin colour compared than the rest of me!)
How awesome and huge are these burgers? The best beach bbq! Farm boy has awesome ground beef!

And a bit of side veg: zucchini and a cucumber (gotta keep it simple when on the go!).

We left Bayfield shortly after supper and headed home. Logan was having an overnight with his Nana and Dziadek so it was movie night for us!
The next morning, after Aleksys parents made an awesome breakfast for us, we headed to Kustermans berry farm for some blueberry picking! We had tried to go pick a couple weeks ago, but after driving all the way out to Mt. Brydges, it was closed Wednesdays. Good thing Logan loves being strapped in his car seat for 45 minutes straight. But we figured this was a good time to go since we were already in Lambeth and it cuts some of the drive time off.

Logan is a blueberry monster. Seriously, if I put blueberries in front of him all day with no stop, he would just keep eating them. So this is how we kept him happy during the 20 minutes we picked! This is our blueberry eating machine.
More please. And don't be stingy... I can shove 3 in my mouth at once.
So many blueberries for $11! We got a massive bag and still have lots 4 days later! This was perfect timing for berry season because blueberries are practically a food group in our house!
