Pops

The kids were all lined up to pop their New Year's pops. Every year my mom and Bre collect some goodies from their New Year's Eve celebration and bring them home to the kids. We were laughing today because I have a box in the attic labeled New Year's with the hats, crowns, leis and noisemakers from many years ago. I didn't get many faces, just arms. You can see our favorite four year old's elbows under the big kid at the top (my daughter's boyfriend) They still think this is a wonderful tradition. Yes, it is a little crooked, I was trying to hang over the balcony to get everyone. You can see my mom (Gayle P. Clement) at the bottom getting her shot http://www.pbase.com/image/54258084

Here is our favorite four year old hiding from his favorite playmates.

I like your view! Love the arms and streamers going across really gives the feeling of movement.

Love your view too! Saw your Mom's! Love your angle, with all the arms outstretched, as the streamers fly!
