Happy 4th of July (Part 2)

After a busy June of running every weekend, we decided to stay home and spend the Fourth of July together as a family.

It wouldn't be a Gillespie holiday without a trip to Menards.

Greta went on her first boat ride. She almost fell asleep on the way back to the landing, so it must have been a success.

"Help! I've fallen and I can't get up!"

Is there a better way to spend Independence Day than a picnic at the beach?

Greta and her new sandbox compliments of Daddy. She's not a fan of it yet, but I'm sure she'll learn to love it.

Having fun playing in her water table.

Splashing in the pool.

Of course, the 4th of July would have to end with an ice cream cone. Yum, Yum! Happy Independence Day!
