A Late Summer Country Picnic

A Late Summer Country Picnic

A Summer Picnic with Ready to Pop

Send off the summer with a dreamy picnic that still offers up the best of the season, but is late enough to enjoy cooler temps. Think it has to be a big affair? Think again. The best picnic takes place with just a few people, and when there's a new baby on the way, there's no better time to kick back for some r & r under the sun.

Pack up a picnic basket (or two) with all the must-haves: Ready to Pop non-alcoholic bubbly, plenty of napkins, and books to get lost in.

For the menu, nothing beats an easily packable sandwich, fresh fruit, and freshly baked pastries. And to really make the scene feel special, throw down your favorite tablecloth in lieu of a blanket, and pack up glass champagne flutes instead of less-than-glamorous paper cups.

Here, Amanda and Hudson enjoyed a few hours of mommy-and-me time, surely a memorable afternoon they'll both cherish even long after baby #2 arrives!
