Lots to be thankful for... Thanksgiving 2010!

Thanksgiving Day was spent with the "Barattiero" family..... Football, Fun, Family and Friends. We had the best time!
Oh yes... watching football!

















Black Friday was spent with the "White's"... we had fun swimming, playing, eating and laughing.
Only FLORIDA can you go swimming the day after Thanksgiving!! The kids had a blast, didn't even put on bathing suits.. just went in the boxers... Oh but it was COLD!! At least the water was. The weather was perfect.

SWEETS And SMILES.

Chocolate, Chatter & Chicks

This years ladies Christmas party had a different meaning.

We were sad to say goodbye to our sweet friend Lisa. We watched a video of her fun times in Gainesville, and we got to play a fun "white" elephant game.

You know there is always the funny GAG GIFT! Well some "honeymoon" dice came Rolling out!!! Not to mention the garter and gun!

Really it was all done in fun! Good thing some people have a great sense of humor!

I think everyone had a great time, they got to come out, relax and laugh alot.

I was pretty excited to make some yummy food. First I made a peppermint ice ring, then I made peppermint bark for the first time....and oreo truffles (thanks Melissa) they were all so tasty! The Death by chocolate is always a crowd pleaser and not to mention Lauren's to die for cookies! We sure don't mess around with the menu on ladies night, there is always some amazing food to snack on. ha ha

The food and friends where wonderful!!!! It was the perfect ladies night.

I can't wait for next year, you just never know what might happen! ha ha

Tree Jumping

O.k. No Joke!

My sweet, crazy, adventerous, son Hunter learned some stunt moves off of the movie "ELF".

I could hear him laughing so hard and I thought to myself ohhhh how cute, I love when he laughs at movies.

So you can only imagine my surprise to see what I found when I went into the living room and Hunter was moving the (x-tra) Christmas tree around.

I just watched him for a minute and couldn't belive what my eyes saw.

He was jumping into the tree from the couch.

I said "Hunter what are you doing... no no no"! He goes but ELF did it.

NICE, real nice.

He learned off of the movie ELF to jump into the christmas tree and just laugh.

Oh I'm just speechless... really... what do you say to that!?!?!

My Hunter boy sure keeps me on my toes. :)

One last Sleep Over...

Hunter had to say goodbye to a buddy, he moved to Alabama on Thursday.

Enoch and Hunter had the best sleepovers, they played, Cowboy and Indians, jumped on the trampoline, laughed a ton and got busted many times from getting out of bed.

They had the best times when they built tents in Hunter's room and slept in them (pretend camping) :). Hunter is really going to miss Enoch.

For his last sleepover..

They went to the duck pond and looked at the lights.
Had pizza for dinner
Rolled down the hills of the hospital. Boys will be boys!!

THEN....
the party continued....
we set up a movie on a laptop for them to watch in there room, gave them popcorn and chocolate chip cookies. They were set!

They were nice and awake at midnight!!

They were having lots of fun!

In the morning they made pancakes and played.

Baking Bliss

Hunter and me had lots of fun making the kitchen a complete disaster!! We baked up a storm! We baked cookies, dipped them in chocolate and then we dipped pretzels in chocolate and added sprinkles. To top it off we made peppermint bark! That was a hit, everyone loved that! It was a fun morning in the kitchen. Of course I had to add a little "semi-homemade" publix yummy treats!
