New Pictures from the Carpenters!

Julia had her second photo shoot with Melody Carpenter. She did such a good job. She looks so cute! She is getting so big and so much fun.

The Brickyard

The Allstate 400 came to town, and Julia had her first trip to the track. Julia, some of our friends, and I went to the track on Friday during the driver's practice. Julia didn't seem to mind the noise of the cars. She watched them go buy a couple of times. We walked around the inside of the track to check out everything that was going on. We spent a couple of hours there. It was fun to see everything going on at the track!

My Dad, Brother, Brother's Friend, Josh, and I decided to go to the race on Sunday. We bought some tickets on the side of the road a couple of hours before the race. They turned out to be pretty good seats between the first and second turn. It was a long hot race, but it is always fun to go and see the cars race. Best of all Jimmie Johnson won!

Julia and I watched the cars come in and out of their garages during practice on Friday.

We got to see Jeff Gordon's car up close! Jeff Gordon is our favorite driver!
Josh and I at the race.
I sat Julia down on the bricks. She is so cute!

3 Years and a Baby!

3 Years Ago Josh and I got married! We were at the White River Gardens, where we got married, the week before our Anniversary, and we took some pictures of our daughter. I can't believe it has been three years since our wedding day, and we have an almost 1 year old daughter. Time flys by...

I don't think her mouth could get any bigger! She must have been very excited!

Happy 4th of July!

We celebrated the fourth this year with Julia for the first time! We spent the day with both sets of Julia's grandparents. We went down to Carmelfest and walked around during the day. Then we came back that night for the fireworks. Julia just sat back and relaxed while the fireworks went off. She seemed to really like them.

Julia looks so cute in sunglasses. I wish she wouldn't take them off as soon as they get on her face. That is why we just tried them on at the store.
Julia and Daddy! Julia looks hot and tired at the end of a very long day.

Summertime Keeps on Going By...

So, first off Julia has started becoming very mobile. She can scoot, roll, and do any other maneuver to get around. She was very ecstatic the other day when she realized she could reach into her toy chest and pull out ALL her toys. It was very cute to watch this new discovery.

Julia, Morgan, Hailey, and I went to the zoo with some friends Jaime, Jacklynn, Isabel, and Lindsay.
We told Julia and Jacklynn to hug. How cute!
We have been going to the pool a lot lately. We went up to Jaime's new house to swim in the kiddie pool. Julia had fun scooting around in her lady bug.

How cute is she!
Hailey came with us this day. She had fun playing in the water squirting the other kids.
Julia loves drinking out of big cups. She thinks it is very fun! It is also pretty cute although she usually gets the same amount of water in her mouth as on her shirt.




This last picture is just to show that Daddy tried to see if Julia had enough hair for a ponytail yet. Maybe soon!
