All I want for Christmas is my...

TWO FRONT TEETH! 

 

All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth!

Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas."

It seems so long since I could say,
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"
Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
if I could only whistle (thhhh, thhhh)

All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth.

Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas!"

 

We hope you have a very

Merry Christmas!!!  

 Love, The Davis Family!

 

 

Graham Cracker Houses!

Every year we create our dream homes out of...
well let's be honest,
 SUGAR! 

 



And when we have more frosting than what we need,
I decorate my children :-)


Our Graham Cracker Village!




Tis the season for RECITALS!

Sam and Kaeli had a piano recital in November.
 
    

Kaeli, Sara & Rylie had a dance recital.

And Sara had a tumbling performance!

Sara also had a preschool performance.
 

The kids all did great, and most importantly had fun doing it.

Besties


Sara and Violet are two peas in a pod.  They are so funny together and totally feed off of each other.  Their combined energy is insurmountable!  They love to be silly and nothing is more entertaining than watching these two.  When they've been separated for a few hours (naps, preschool, whatever) they are so excited to be reunited, like long-lost relatives who haven't seen each other for years!  They are also roomies, so bedtime can be quite "interesting" to say the least.  

I am so glad they are such good friends!

 

 (Yes, that would be a healthy lunch of cheetos, banana & poptart :-)

AWESOME hair!

I saw on pinterest a tutorial for perfect curly locks.  I couldn't wait to try it!  Here's how it's done:

While hair is still wet, divide it in sections and twist the strands until they start coiling up on themselves.  Then pin them or use pony tails to keep it in place.  Just like so:

Once the hair is almost dry, undo the little buns, but leave the twists until it's completely dry!

Gently, undo the twists with your fingers or a pick, and...
 TA-DA!

AWESOME!

Violet wasn't a fan, but I couldn't stop laughing!  Maybe I should have tried this on my girls with thicker hair...with thicker sections.  

Try, try again :-)

5 Little Monsters

(pirate, smurfette, clown, alien & vampire)




They're on the LOOSE!


So you better LOCK your doors...


because...they're coming for YOU!


...and your CANDY!

(I wore the same costume Violet is wearing when I was her age...made by my mom.  I LOVE it :-)

FIVE!

 

We can't believe our sweet Sara is FIVE!
  
Anyone who knows Sara knows she has built-in springs...she bounces, twirls, and tumbles from point A to point B.  I've never known anyone with as much ENERGY or as much PERSONALITY as she has.  Sara is also very smart and very caring.  We love her so much and we're so grateful to have her in our family.

Photoshoot with a FIVE year old!

Sara endured a photoshoot with me a few days before her birthday.  She is such a cutie!
