mickey waffles

During our most recent trip to Disney, we stopped for the day to hang out with Great Grandma. Continuing a long-standing tradition we enjoyed Mickey waffles for breakfast before we went to go see the Mouse himself.


To my surprise, Grandma handed over the beloved waffle iron to our family. I was honored and the kids have been thrilled to have Mickey waffles in our own house. It really was like Grandma was handing me my whole childhood and I love that I get to share that oh-so-special part with my little ones...and yes, every time we make the mouse-shaped waffle, we have to take a picture of it before Reilly-Kate will allow it to be cut up and enjoyed...

varsity

While we were in Atlanta for Uncle Sean's wedding we, of course, made a stop at The Varsity for lunch...don't you have to? When you're a Davis you do!


Sam and RK didn't really get why we sat in the car and ate instead of just driving through and taking it home...but Sam didn't question much when he got his chocolate milk and french fries.

backstage

RK was waiting for her big debut as Flower Girl at Uncle Sean and Aunt Ginny's wedding...she was very excited about her wedding dress and danced until the wee hours.

fire station

Sam had his 1st field trip with school a few weeks ago.
Pop got to come with us as we walked to the Fire Station and got a tour.


He even got to shoot the water hose!

trick or treat!

Finally! The day had arrived...Super Sam got to wear his full costume---he's been wearing his cape all week---and all of our people had arrived to party! Pop and Nana and Mimi and Uncle came over to give out candy while we went begging in the neighborhood...


Reilly-Kate had been Sleeping Beauty and Minnie Mouse for other events but had settled on being a UGA cheerleader to the big night. Not because she is a die-hard fan, but because it wasn't "itchy".

Sam very much enjoyed saying "treat!" and getting some...don't worry, he remembered his "tank you", too!

Best quote of the night, "I don't want anymore treats!" RK was done. She did have fun and got lots of treats but it is tough running around with big boots on when it is almost 90 degrees. Plus, we found out today, that she is suffering from her 1st ear infection. Poor girl. But she toughed it out and another successful Halloween is done! Thanks for sharing it with us Pop and Nana, Mimi and Uncle---wouldn't have been the same without you!

"oofy"

It would be a crime not to share this picture with the world.

pumpkins and a big boy bed

We finally got a weekend at home...and boy did it turn cold all of a sudden! Of course, our cold in South GA is quite different from my northern friends but still...its all relative, right?

We headed out to get pumpkins and Halloween costumes on Saturday.

On Sunday, we were very lucky and had Pop and Nana, Aunt Ann, and Carol come over and help us build shelves in the shed, clean out the garage, and get stuff up in the attic! I know! How great is our family?! In all that moving around, we decided we might as well get down a twin bed and put away the crib so Sam got his big boy bed! He loves it and didn't want RK to share with him at the beginning...the only reason we were able to get this picture is because of what is laying to the left of Sam--yes, thats right, RK shared her Barbies so Sam shared his bed--for a few minutes. :)
