New Year's Eve!

I decided to really start using my new camera. I just can't believe the difference in the pictures! I totally don't know how to use it and they still turn out great. I am loving it! This is why I got the camera. I am not a photographer, but I want nice pictures. Actually those people at Sear's, Walmart, and Jcpenney aren't really photographers either. And we pay them for pictures. I love my new camera! Yea, I know I already said that but it is true. Alright so here are the pictures from New Year's Eve. Carter seemed to want me to take a picture and then when I got it ready he posed like that.Adelyn was the come down from the watching the movie and played with Carter. I think she broke his balloon.
Here is Ariana and Sierra. I haven't started to edit my photo's yet so they have red eye. Sorry Ariana!
Ha, Ha! Don was holding Hyrum and then Hyrum woke up and started crying. He wanted Allan to hold him. I have no idea what was going on in Hyrum's head. Maybe uncle Allan just looked more comfortable? I thought it was funny.
Here is my deer in the headlights. This is the start of the pictures from outside.





I love Sierra's expression in this photo.
Brooklyn didn't want anything to do with the sparklers. It is funny how us parents always try to get them to experience these things in spite of how they feel. My poor kids have too hard. What kind of mom am I! :)
Don started to chase the kids around with a sparkler. They fled like chicken's running from a fox. Hyrum ran towards the road so here is Don taking him back to the driveway.

After the fireworks at Kevin's and Jenna's house we went to our house for the adult fun time. We laid all the kids down and they actually slept! We stayed up till late and played games. It was ALOT of FUN!
Carter woke up in a very happy mood. I just couldn't resist taking his happy picture.

Oh my gosh I was laughing so hard while looking at your pictures!
Let me see, the one of Don with the sparkler and pulling Hyrum lol!

I missed the whole thing when Hyrum went to Allan instead of Don...I'm glad you got a picture.

I like your pictures. Is your favorite part having no shutter lag? I swear even after the last couple years I love having no shutter lag.

Mary, thank you for posting these pictures. I love that Uncle Allan feels needed by Hyrum. :)Also, I wish I could have seen Don chasing all the kids around! That's what Dad used to do. It makes life exciting for the kids.:)

Ahhh, memories. :)
That was one of the "funnest" (I know that's not a real word lol)nights of my life. Your new camera takes beautiful pictures! Well, obviously it's you taking the beautiful pictures, but they are a lot better quality than mine.
