The 4th of July has come and gone. We had a wonderful extended weekend trip up to the Northwoods of Wisconsin at my sister-in-law's lake house. Our trip consisted of: rides on their pontoon boat, fishing, eating, playing outside, fireworks, eating, relaxing by the lake, drinking (just juice for me, blah), games, and more eating. :) We left early in the morning on Friday so Evie managed to sleep for a good portion of our 5 hour drive. She is not the most patient person in the car, but we prepared with plenty of snacks, movies, books, toys, etc. Honestly, we found that if we just talk to her, she is usually pretty good. The only problem is that sometimes she gets antzy and tries to get out of her car seat. Anyone else have this issue? It's frustrating to watch her try to unbuckle herself, but we just keep reinforcing that she needs to stay in her seat, and she usually gets distracted by something else.
Anyways, back to our weekend. Even though the bugs were out in full attack mode, we LOVED being out in nature for a couple days and enjoyed the easy life. Evie also was super happy to wake up and see her cousins every day! Here are a few pictures from our adventures at the lake house! I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July weekend too!!
