September 2013: Raspberry picking, Walden Pond and Boston Common

 September was a busy month!! We went to Montreal, I went to Utah for my 10-year class reunion and we did several things here in Boston while the weather was nice.

We went raspberry picking with our friends, the Robertson's. Marcus loved it of course and ate many many raspberries while we were picking. Berry picking is really popular in New England, so it was fun to take advantage of it. And the raspberries were delicious, of course.









We also went to Walden Pond one Saturday. It is where the famous writer Henry David Thoreau lived for two years. They had a replica of his cabin there. And then we just walked around the pond. We took our umbrella stroller, which was not so great considering it's a dirt path most of the way---but we managed :)





We spent another Saturday morning at Boston Common. We took Marcus to see the "Make Way for Ducklings" statue. He was interested, but not to thrilled about sitting on the duck statues.

 We just had to let Marcus ride the carousel! He loved it :)



There's a playground at Boston Common with some fun frog statues.
