Happy New Year 2012

We went to the Gapens for NYE and had a blast with them and the Pollan family. We have been for the past few years and they know how to show us a good time and always keep our little guys entertained. We played, ate pizza, shot fireworks and ate smores. To say the least, the kiddos were in heaven! Thanks so much for having us.



Will shot a Roman candle with Eddie and I missed getting a picture :(. It was the only firework that he wanted to shoot that night, but he had fun watching. Carter shot a few of them and loved every minute.


Here he is getting ready.




Having a blast with his daddy :). Eddie said he jumped every time one came out the first time.





Daddy and Carter bug





My cute little Will playing in the "castle", as he called it.





Reed taught Will how to deer hunt :). He and Chase were such sweet boys to Will and Carter.





When Ella came out to play, Will was a gentleman and pulled her around on the dozer. She is beautiful!


Getting marshmallows ready for smores :)











How cute is this kiddo?!


I love smores!

Fun times!



Pumped up on Chocolate! Love my little doll!




The next day, the boys and I headed to Booneville.


The Anglin fam gave the boys some really awesome books. They are Cars and Toy Story and they are printed stories about Will and Carter. It was a precious idea. Thanks so much!




Sweet little Brylin balance a slap bracelet on his head.



Doll face!


Aunt Lala bought the kiddos some fireworks.











I could snuggle with this handsome little lovebug anytime! Love my Will :)


Enjoying the show. They got up shortly after this and Carter told me his "booty" was cold!



Carter woke up for several days after and asked when he could shoot fireworks again :). We had fun ringing in the new year. We look forward to another wonderful and blessed year and wish the same for our amazing family and friends :)! Happy 2012!!!

You got some great pictures! I love the one of Carter peeking around the column with his s'more, and I adore the picture of Will grinning so big over the fireworks!

They are sweet boys! I thought NYE was perfect! Thanks for coming!

Love you and your precious family!
