We went to the annual Independence Day celebration at the Tupelo Country Club again this year! The kids had a blast with all the games, food, and fireworks! Sam was especially "active" as he ran all over the golf course. It was a fun time had by all.

Fun and games!
Sam had so much fun putting the flag in and out of the hole!
Sweet Kendall was so proud of her balloon flower!

Family picture! Sam wouldn't put the balls down!
Later that evening, Uncle Mark, Aunt Jessica, Jon Mark, and Baby Andrew came to visit stay! We were so excited to see sweet Andrew. He is growing so big and we don't get to see them as often as we would like! We celebrated the 4th by cooking a huge lebanese dinner...Kibbie, Tabouleh, Grape Leaves, Cabbage Roll Casserole, and Mint Tea! We slaved all day in the kitchen but it was SO worth it! Later that evening, we cut and ate watermelon in the driveway! We were glad that the Stovalls were here to help us celebrate our independence. On Saturday, July 6, we went to Corinth to join Jessica's family at the Ball Family Reunion. They are always so sweet to include us! We had a great time eating, playing corn hole, golf, and just meeting all of Jessica's extended family! Here are some pictures from the fun week!
Kendall and Andrew...precious!
Sam wouldn't get close enough to them to take a good picture!

Kendall loves to take pictures with my camera. So, here are couple of her shots...Not to bad for a 4 year old! She may have a career as a photographer!
I love this shot...she did awesome!
One of the few pictures of mommy! Just 2 days shy of age 36 in this picture!!!
On Sunday, Mimi came to pick the twins up from Alabama and Mark and the crew came back to Tupelo. We met at the Olive Garden to eat and then came back to our house for a visit with the entire crew! We wanted another few pictures with Andrew since we don't get to see him much! He is so sweet and such a precious little boy!
