Halloween 2008

Knight Coby, Me, Batman, BuzzLight Year and our Jack'o'Latern!!


I carried on the Davis tradition...I was a witch for Halloween...no root beer, which JD was disappointed about...but were taking baby step's...maybe next year!
Tanner at first wasn't quite sure about the whole tricker treating idea...but once he realized that people were giving him Candy he was hooked! This is how he came home...passed out with a pumpkin full of candy! What a great Halloween ;)

Coby's Broken Arm

While I was at my 10 year reunion Bryson and Coby were playing "WWF" in our hallway. They each would stand in opposite door ways and charge each other, then Bryson decided to hold his arm out and plow Coby down...then he fell right on top of him breaking his elbow!
You know it's bad news when your husband calls and asks "were are the insurance cards?"
When I returned from my trip Coby with great enthusiasm says..."Mom I can eat with ONE hand!!!"
He is such a trooper! I hated not being able to be with him while he was in the Emergency Room...but his Daddy took good care of him! And we survived another injury!

Such a "Little" Man

Since this blog is my journal and also my scrapbook I had to put this in.
The other day Bryson came to me and asked....
Bryson: "Mom what's our phone number?"
Mom: (thinking how great it is that he is wanting to learn his phone number, I started singing the Safety Kid's Song in my head "when your in trouble just call on the double..." any of you who were in Mesa 45th ward will know that song) "Our number is .....
Bryson: (writing every number down...then looks at me and say's...) "Mom how do you spell Sasha?"
Mom: "S A...wait a minute...why?"
Bryson: "I want to give Sasha my phone number so that she can call me...and we can talk!!"
Mom: (stunned look on my face) "Really? OK...S A S H A"

I couldn't help but crack up, that my little boy is already giving out his didchets in KINDERGARTEN!!!! He is definitely turning into our "LITTLE MAN".

Mesa High Class of 1998

Last weekend I flew down to AZ to go to my 10 year High School reunion...I know so old right?...but any excuse to hang out with my "GIRLS"! It was so fun catching up and reminiscing about old times, looking through old pictures, we even watched the dreaded Senior Video (sorry Sheri...I think that video needs to be burned;)I am so glad I was able to go! It was fun seeing people I hadn't seen since High School, some people haven't changed at all, and some people (like myself) you wouldn't recognize them if you bumped right into them! All in all I had a great time, it's always nice to get away and see old faces...but I have to admit the greatest feeling is when you get home and your sweet family's faces light up to see you...being missed is "nice"...I think JD almost shed a tear of relief ;)
Thank You Honey for taking care of our boys while I went and played, they almost survived the weekend with out any injury's(pictures of Coby's broken arm will follow).And my friend Laura who took care of my boys all day Friday for me, you are the greatest!

(Brittney, Sheri, Sara, ME (voted most changed female...I don't know if that's a good thing or bad) Natalee, Marnie (voted least changed female (definitely a good thing Marn:)bottom row Heather and Holly)

And the Boys from MHS class of 98

The Family Photo Shoot

First of all I have to give a big "Thank You" to my wonderful Sister in Law Jodi!! I hate to say Sister in Law Jodi is more my Sister.
Anyway, Troy and Jodi decided to make a trip up to Texas and visit us...I know it's hard to believe...you know family wanting to come and visit "US";) Needless to say we were so excited to have them! Our kids play so well together, seriously they never fought! I am still in "aah" at how well these kids get along! They were so busy playing that Jodi and I could just sit and talk, and eat, and then talk some more....its was AWESOME!!! We miss them terribly, my kids actually want me to entertain them now ;)
While Jodi was here she was nice enough to do a family photo shoot for us. And of course she took some amazing pictures. Here are a few that I stole from her blog. If you want to see more of our family photo shoot go and check out her blog jodidavisphotography.blogspot.com.
If any of you are considering having your family pictures done you should definitely call Jodi. She is so talented...I promise you will not be disappointed!! Thanks again Jodi your the BEST!!

Happy Birthday

On October 4, 2008 we celebrated JD's 31st Birthday. I still can't believe that he is in his 30's and still in SCHOOL...but there is light at the end of the tunnel only 9 more months and he is finished!!!! YIPPEE!!! So to celebrate we made his favorite "CARROT" cake (we were in a time crunch so he even had to frost his own cake;).
Opened presents...we have been needing an extra remote for the Wii so all 3 of my Big boys can play together!! This is all the excitement I could capture from a "31 year old"!!!

We sang him "Happy Birthday" and the boy's helped their dad blow out the candles! Then it was off to get the babysitter so that I could take my Hubby out on his Big Day!

The boys and I are so lucky to have JD...he is an amazing Husband and Father! Even with his crazy schedule he makes sure he spends time with his boys and is always telling them how much he loves them. He always puts family first. I am so thankful for him and for all that he does for our family! Happy Birthday Honey! We love you!
I love this picture of JD and Tanner...Tanner loves to ride on his Dad's shoulder's. The second JD walks in the door Tanner will run over to him and yell "DAD" and then point to his head! That's his way of saying "Hi Dad, now put me on your shoulder's and take me for a ride!! Aren't they so cute together?

Oh MAN!!!!

So as some of you may know I have been trying to get ready for a Half Marathon here in San Antonio on Oct. 11Th! But a few weeks ago after a run my right ankle swelled up and I had a little bit of discomfort. So finally after 2 weeks of icing my ankle and taking IB pro fen with no change I went to the Doctor. After an X-ray and an MRI he concluded that I had a "Stress Fracture" on my heel!!! Seriously...that just sucks!!! Doesn't getting old just stink? So the end result is I have to wear a fancy looking "BOOT" on my foot for at least 3 weeks, and no running! So this Half Marathon that I have been training for is out. I'm totally bumbed! Hopefully my foot will heal quickly and I will be able to train again for another Marathon..."HALF a Marathon" that is!!!
