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.

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!

All of the kiddos... it was the best shot I could get!

Ashley teaching the little ones how to use noisemakers. They were a hit.

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!!!

Welcome to the World....

Jackson Guy Taylor :). Justin and Jessica welcomed their bundle of joy, Jackson Guy, on December 14th. He is a little ham and could not be any more precious.

I could just kiss those little cheeks :)!


Jess and her sweet little man on Christmas Eve. She is such a precious momma already. Love love love!

Jess, we are so happy for y'all and I can't wait to get my hands on your little angel again soon :)!

Special Christmas Deliveries

The day after Christmas, Papaw & Nana and Papaw, Mamaw & Cash came to visit us. They brought lots of fun gifts from them and family. Thank you all so much for coming over and making an extra special day for us! And, of course, thank you to all of our aunts/uncles that sent things for us and, most of all, thinking of our sweet boys. I was not able to get a picture of each gift, but the boys love all of them.


Will opening his 1st gift from Papaw and Nana.



Grandmother bought him a really Tractor Trio set. Thanks so much for sending this, Grandmother. We had a lot of fun building, and Will and Carter enjoy re-building it every couple of days :).

Carter woke up from his nap to open gifts. Does anyone love this expression and bedhead as much as I do ?!

Carter loves his new Mack truck/McQueen from Grandmother and his Caterpillar toy from Aunt Lisa :).

Carter snuck Cash's candy. Does he look like a sneaky little stinker or what?!

And, Will was very fond of Cash's baseball fan candy dispenser.

Toni and her family sent the boys some precious Dr. Suess books and some jeans. Will sat and read his book for a few minutes :).

Carter pretty much had this hair all day :). How cute is he in his new Northface?! Thanks, Papaw and Nana!

Papaw and their uncle Robert/aunt Reba gave them some money. I never realized how excited they would be over it :). Carter told Nana he was going to take her to the candy store. How cute are they?

Me and Momma decide to take Will, Carter and Cash outside to ride scooters and bikes. I love the picture below.

We also love Will's new jacket.

Papaw and Nana also bought the boys an art Eazel. They even helped Papaw put it together which was SO MUCH fun to them. They love spelling their name, putting numbers in order and I know they will love their chalk when I get them some :)

Papaw and his little handymen.

Carter's turn.

Precious boys spelling their names!

Thank you for the wonderful visit :). We love all of our new toys!
