Need a Good Laugh?

We Love Nursery!

Olivia had her first week of Nursery. Hallelujah! This was Livi before nursery ... This was Livi after nursery ... Need I say more?

The Davis Family Fort

I came home from a meeting the other day to find Jason and the kids had turned our living room into a huge fort. They were all sitting inside the fort giggling and waiting for me to find them. At first I was a bit concerned about my sofas, but then I thought "What the heck", and jumped in with them. We spent all night in the fort telling jokes, stuffing ourselves with Halloween candy, and laughing when the ceiling would cave in on us. The mess was well worth it in the end!

Date Night!

Jason has a crazy work schedule, so it's a rare treat for us to go on a date together. Last weekend, we went shopping and out to dinner. It felt like we were newlyweds again ... except for the whole "leaving early to pick up our kids" thing. It was great to spend some time with my hubby. Love you babe!

One and a Half!

Monday, we celebrated Olivia's Half Birthday. She loved her pink half-cake and only had to blow 12 times before the candle went out (OK, so Joshua finally just blew it out from across the table). We love our little princess. She brings so much sweetness into our family, and we can't help but smile every time we think of her. Happy Half Birthday Livi!

Happy Halloween!!

Our Halloween season was packed full with activity this year. The kids dressed up as Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. (Joshua insisted on being something with a sword.) I took them to the studio to have their pictures taken, and boy was that stressful! We had to bribe Livi to stay in the photo by letting her eat a lollipop. Sigh ... We went to 2 Halloween parties this year-one with our ward and one with my parent's ward. Both were complete with dinner, games for the kids, and a trunk-or-treat. The kids knew Grandma was a softie and definitely took advantage of her candy supply. Halloween night, we joined Rob and Abigail's family so the kids could go trick-or-treating together. They had a blast! The boys ran from house to house while the girls rode in a double stroller like 2 little princesses. Afterword, we ate pizza and talked for hours. It was a great Halloween. And now ... we're going to sleep. We're exhausted!

"The Bad Guy"

Halloween is almost here!! We had fun carving our pumpkin tonight. The kids brainstormed by drawing some interesting "designs" on paper. In the end, we decided to keep it simple this year. :-) Livi loved stirring the big bowl of pumpkin goo, and Joshua was excited to choose the pumpkin's name. He quickly decided on "The Bad Guy." A tough name for a tough-looking pumpkin ...
