4th of July and Jonah's first ice cream





We had a lot of fun 4th of July weekend. Dwight got Friday off so we went to New Smyrna Beach and hiked the dunes to the inlet where the Indian River meets the ocean. We decided that it's our favorite beach that we've discovered so far here in Florida.

On the 4th we visited an ice cream shop that has over 50 flavors of soft serve! I got blackberry and Dwight got mango. Jonah was very interested in the orange stuff Daddy had, so of course we let him try it out - and of course he loved it! I imagine soft serve will become a beach trip tradition.




After ice cream went to the other side of the inlet where the Pont's Inlet Lighthouse is. It's one of the tallest lighthouses in the country and for sure in Florida. Dwight was such a trooper carrying Jonah all the way up to the top.
