When you have something up your sleeve or if you
just need a nice place to go, George George Memerial Park is a nice place to
go! (You can even get married there.. and the ice cream truck comes!)
George George Memorial Park is
located at 40500 Moravian Drive, Clinton Twp, 48036. This park was
officially presented to the Township with a dedication ceremony on Tuesday, July 1,
2008 at 11:00am.
A large children’s play area and
playscape, a covered public pavilion for picnics and other community
gatherings, a fountain plaza area and more than 5,000 feet of walking and bike
paths are all featured in this 30 acre park.(Clinton township website, see link
below)
Sometimes kids get
tired of the same o’l same o’l so you kind of have to get creative. I wanted to
something special for Fathers Day and for the last day of school for Makayla. I
decided to combine my need to do something that involved taking pictures and
wanting to take her somewhere special so that it would save me time and money. For Fathers Day, I wanted to take three photos
of Makayla and frame them. I had her hold the three different words in three
pictures. I heart You. I wanted something special from her that was
also creative. It turned out really nice. I had a frame at home and we just
took the pictures. She loves being photographed and of course dressing up
really girly!

After we finished up with the photos, I let her play
on the playground. George George park is a REALLY clean park and people really
treat the park with care. The equipment is safe and clean and the people were
friendly. Makayla loves playing and I enjoy watching her release her energy. It
was the first day of summer break for her. 
After we were finished I took her to Biggby Coffee
for a treat. I figured she’d want a frozen hot chocolate, but she wanted a warm
hot chocolate even though it was a hot day! Bigby coffee is a Michigan coffee
shop, that gives you the option of getting every drink hot, cold, or frozen. It’s
a really nice option to be able to have your favorite drinks during all types
of weather. I like that option but I also like that they’re a Michigan founded
company. Their prices are comparable to Starbucks. The experience is a bit
different, they always have 4-5 different flavored coffee brewed and the
atmosphere isn’t as businessish as Starbucks. Biggby also has a reward card, buy 12 drinks get the 13th free. And they send you coupons for 1.00 off in your email.
I enjoy doing things with Makayla whether its
something simple like going to the park, or something extravagant like going to
Disney on Ice. She brings something new to each and every day and I want her to
be able to remember the different things that her father and I do with her.
This is my last post for this class, but I believe I
may keep up with this blog to continue to write about different things that we
do together. I can’t wait to tell her different memories when she gets older.
