My Latest Project..

Hunter's new SEMINOLE ROOM!!




We are a HOUSE DIVIDED Family!

Steve and Hunter are Stinky Seminoles and I'm a Gator.
I'm working on getting Henry to be a Gator also. :)
I guess if I can't convince Hunter to be a Gator
he might as well be a Seminole with some Style!

Mommy and Daddy worked hard to make the room perfect,

Steve and his buddy Bryan painted!

Of course I did all the rest of the decorating.

I loved it!!!


We spotted the bedspreads on sale... $13.00each bed in a bag

(they were so cheap cause no one wants to be a Seminole)... ha ha


Wall decals $10.00

Spraypaint for letter $4.00

Letters $14.00

Paint $20.00

Room Makeover for $61.00

One Happy Kid !!!!!!

Christmas Festivities

Our family Saturday night was filled with....

A Small Town Christmas Parade and then the Church Christmas Party.

We went and watched the Newberry parade, it was perfect, the kids had a great time.

The "RED HAT" ladies always throw out Santa hats and then the kids get to pick up all the candy and put it in there hat.

Oh yes, all the kids run INTO the road to grab the candy. Hunter totally scored.

Tractors, Firetrucks, Horse carriages and big huge cow. It sounds like a Country Christmas carol.

The kids on the floats had so much fun throwing out the candy. It is always fun to see some of your friends on the floats.

This is our 2nd year going and we always have a fun time!














Church Christmas Party

Food, friends and some Christmas Cheer and oh who did we spot but good ol' Santa Claus.

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
