4th of July!

The 4th of July has always been one of my favorite holidays! It all began when I was at Camp DeSoto in Mentone, AL. I spent 8 summers at camp. Our 4th of July celebration was filled with dressing in our red, white, and blue, a track meet between the 3 tribes, dressing in costums to attend the county fair, eating watermelon, and ending the day with a fireworks show. When I was growing up this was one holiday that I never celebrated at home. However, my latest 4th of July tradition is to go to my hometown of Greenville, MS and hang out at my cousins' cabin on a lake in Arkansas. This is a very enjoyable and relaxing vacation. These pictures show how this year's 4th was celebrated with my family!

This is how my dad, Stephen Jr. and Sarah Barry began the weekend!
