Christmas Eve


Christmas Eve we headed to Downtown Disney. We met up with Steve's brothers and mom, had some lunch and checked out the festivities. The Christmas decorations were beautiful. Of course Hunter and Grace where in heaven hanging out together.





MUD

Hunter said mommy "can I use the hose to get a drink of water?" The next thing I see is Henry is COVERED in MUD..... Hunter thought it would be fun to make a mud puddle and he was prepared with his rain boots but Henry decided to SIT in the mud as Hunter jumped up and down splashing him.... yikes!!!!
Boys will be boys!



Blackwelder Bliss

Our family got to spend the day with the my sister Bethany's family. The kids played dress up, opened gifts and me and Bethany stayed up till 3 am just chatting it up. Oh I miss my sister. What a fun Christmas surprise to be able to spend some time with them over the holidays.

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.

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.
