4th Of July 2009

This year for the 4th of July the McBride family from Oklahoma came to visit us again! We were all SO excited that they decided to join us again for this lovely holiday! They arrived Thursday morning and left Sunday night. It was a great weekend having them here! We did the usual, lots of shopping and hanging out. Friday night everyone came over to our house after a day of shopping at the Albertville Shopping Mall. We had dinner and than the men went out to Treasure Island for some gambling. The ladies and the kids hung out at the house and they even slept over! We had an adult and kids sleep over! The boys just loved that!

Saturday we spent the day at the Ramos'. It was a packed day of fun activities! Of course we played the traditional Wiffle ball. Uncles against the kids. The Uncles this time had to have a drink in one hand at all times. Paul BBQ'd for dinner and shortly after that it was time for sparklers and fireworks! It was a wonderful day spending time with family. Below are some pics! Hope you enjoy!
