One of our biggest family traditions is Granddaddy Charlie's 4th of July fish fry! I think I have been every year since I was born, with the exception of maybe one or two summers when I worked at Belew's! It is such a great time when lots of extended family and friends get together for yummy food, tons of dessert, photo ops and lots of catching up on each other's lives! This year seemed extra special with over 35 people , and it was Charley's first 4th of July!

I can't believe I didn't get a picture of Granddaddy Charlie or Granny Martha...luckily, I think its only appropriate to mention July 4, 2010!
After everyone went home last year, we told Granny Martha and Granddaddy Charlie that next year we would have a new baby at the picnic...their reaction wasn't quite what I expected. Well, Granddad-super excited, but Granny Martha (and I'm quoting word for word, "well great, what about your new job!") took a little while to warm up to the idea! I guess she thought I couldn't work and be a Momma??? Who knows! Now, she is probably one of the proudest Great-Grandmothers I have ever seen! (And, of course, Granddaddy Charlie is too...one of the proudest Great-Granddads!)
