Smith Family Barbeque

When the family gets together... there is a whole lot of laughs, visiting, fun and even a prank phone call or two. :)

We had a Smith Family barbeque July 6th at Grandpa Smith's house. We had a great turn out and had a lot of fun. We had dutchoven chicken and potatoes cooked by Steven, and then everyone else contributed salads, desserts, or just whatever they wanted to bring.

Here are some of the great pictures that were taken.
