JULIA'S 2ND BIRTHDAY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
















I picked this cake out for her in June before we even
got her.



















Julia loved her cake. She was so excited when we
showed it to her.















She wasted no time diving into her cake and eggnog ice cream (highly
recommend Publix brand ice cream).















Julia's birthday outfit happened to match Poppy's.















I think they liked the food. Their plates are empty.














Julia's birthday loot. Thank you for all the gifts.














We had to take turns pulling them in their new
wagon that has seatbelts and cup holders!















Okay, this is how it works. I open my present and....














Carson runs off with it. I think Carson has a little crush on
the Chinese doll.

Thanksgiving 2006 - Julia's first Turkey Day
with us. I think her favorite food was Grandma Susan's
bean experiment and Aunt Cindy's Cherry Fluff.















Group shot for Turkey Day! We are thankful for
our family.















Mantle shot for Jerry, Fran and Allison. We are glad
you guys join us for Thanksgiving.















After a few gas pedal lessions from Grandma Susan,
the babies were off.
















Ages 3 and up. Well, I don't think they stopped
to read the restrictions. They could have ridden
this until the battery died but I gave out before
the battery.
















I am happy to report that our traditional four-wheel
riding on Thanksgiving only resulted in one accident for the day.
Carson and Julia ran into Daddy (while he was sitting still).
No bandaids required. (That came earlier in the day)















Yes, that is Olivia in the camo clothing. Country
girl at heart.















Uncle Tony got the karoke party started for our
evening festivities.















First time attendance so he sang something safe -
Old McDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O.















Uncle Tony and Tim had to recruit a back-up
dancer, Aunt Cindy.

They could do this for hours. It might be a long night. Not only do you have to help them sing you also have to applaud at the end of every song.

Smile!















The lost sock picture. This was a requirement
to come to Olivia's party. Do you know which sock
is yours?
