The 4th of July!

We had a great time celebrating Independence Day this year with family! We spent the day at my grandparents River House on the St. Johns River and even took a boat ride to Blue Springs to cool off for a little while. Later that night, we drove over to Lake Monroe in Sanford and enjoyed the fireworks show there. It turned out to be a fun and relaxing day and Laila seemed to have a blast!

Poor baby! She's not too happy about the life jacket!

Headed to Blue Springs!

Laila fussed when first getting in the water because it was so cold, but when she got used to it, she had a good time!
