Ringing in 2012

We rang in the New Year with a house full of friends! It was a super fun night! Here is the Table all set up for the big night!

Blowers, hats, confetti, a mustache phot prop, and goodie bags with clocks on the front so the kids could keep themselves occupied with fun activites all night! They were a hit! They were filled with glow sticks, balloons, suckers, and my favorite one had stationary in it. The kids were supposed to draw or write their favorite memory from 2011. Kennedy: Double Digits. Thai: Being baptized. Easton: Taking 2nd at state in Baseball. London: my house. So fun to see their take on 2011. It is defiently one I was happy to see go. But through the tough times we were able to fill it with lasting memories! There was enough food and treats to keep us full all night! We played some hillarious games that kept us laughing all the way to midnight!

A tradition that has been in the Hartman family for over 40 years was introduced to our friends this year. At midnight we all run outside and throw a pancake on the roof! It symbolizes good luck for the coming year! It was so fun seeing 30 pancakes flying through the air! Pretty sure it's going to be a great year!

Happy New Year!! Bring it on 2012!
