The princess....
I feel like Harper might not be getting enough attention on the ol' blog here so lets take a moment to admire the beauty that is Harper Ella Davidson! Harper got some new little ugg boots for winter that she is pretty darn proud of, I don't blame her one bit! She recently visited the doctor for her 18 month check up! She weighed 24 pounds and is in the 50th percentile for everything. She hated her shots but took them like a champ! She is one tough little mama! She has a new trick called I can get my arms out of my carseat straps, so that's been fun! She loves to have her hair done like a princess! Which means she wants a sparkly headband! She has a very stylin' new coat for winter just like her mama, because you know we like to match! She really enjoys dancing on the counter top in her "apple bottom jeans boots with the fur"! She thinks she needs a coke all the time and just helps herself to it whenever she pleases! Kidding, but she does tell me she needs one pretty regularly! Mostly she's just full of cuteness and mischief and we just love her! She a little diva but what girl isn't!
Saying goodbye...
The day came...for us to say goodbye to our elf mistletoe! It was pretty sad we had some good times with him. Like the morning we woke up to or basement being toilet papered! How about that road trip to salt lake? We really liked the morning we noticed he wrapped the toilet as a nice big present for us! Christmas eve morning we noticed him hanging on the boys ceiling fan with a note telling us it was time for him to go home! But he said he'd be back next year! We sure are going to miss all your craziness mistletoe have fun at the North pole!
Christmas....
Christmas morning we all woke up and the kids couldn't wait to see if Santa had been here! Even though they had told me they heard him on the roof! Because I'm mother of the year I really didn't take any pictures. I did however take a video so at least we have that. Trey and jack both got their wish of the 3ds xl, Harper got her Minnie kitchen and me and Richard got some awesome new bikes! We can't wait to go on some little family rides around the neighborhood! We did taken them for a small jaunt up and down the road in our pjs that night, because we are cool like that! We had a wonderful day filled with visiting family and like every good Jewish person we finished or tradional Christmas night off with eating some Chinese takeout! Merry Christmas everyone!
Christmas eve....
So Christmas eve didn't start out great. We were awoken by the boys at 5 in the morning. Trey had forgotten the rule of your not allowed to get up if it's still dark outside, then shortly after that we heard the awful sound of Harper puking! So the morning didn't start out fanatic! But luckily Harper pulled through her stomach bug fast and we were able to dive through a horrible snow storm to my grandmas Christmas party! We made it there and back in one piece! The kids couldn't wait to open their Christmas Jammies! So at 4 in the afternoon we did just that and cuddled up into them on the couch! We did our usual Christmas eve tradition of ordering pizza! Trey and jack were ready to go to bed at 630 but managed to hold out till 730! They put out cookies and a coke for Santa, because we know what the big man really needs to keep a little pep in his step! It was kind of a good thing that they got up so early because they slept til 7 the next morning! It was a Christmas miracle!
Sharp dressed men...
You know, there is nothing I love more then seeing all my boys dressed up in their fancies! Especially in some fancy sweaters! You know how the song goes "every girls crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man!"

The real deal Santa...
I know I already said we saw Santa, but that was a Walmart Santa so you know he smelt like beef and cheeses (name that movie). We wanted the kids to have a good Santa experience. So we heard that we could take the kids to have breakfast with Santa for dinner one night at kneaders! So as soon as Richard got off work we headed to do just that. We had French toast which sent us all into a diabetic coma but was absolutely delicious! We saw Santa and had a great time! There was a small incident of practically all of us spilling our syrup all over us which the people around us had a good chuckle about but other then that it was some major Christmas time fun!

Temple square....
Over the weekend we decided to take the kids on a little trip! We headed down to slc to stay over night and go see temple square! We had tons of fun. We took the kids to toys r us they loved it but that was a total mistake on a Saturday! It was giving me and Richard both total anxiety! There was so many people out and jack was running all over the place! But we had fun! When we made it down to slc we headed to our hotel and then to city creek. It was our first time and it was a blast! The weather was warm but it was very busy! We hit up all our favorite stores, the Disney store and Tiffanys! Later we had dinner and then headed over to see the lights! It was amazing Harper couldn't get over how pretty everything was! She was in pretty heaven! After the lights we headed back to the hotel to swim and crash for the night! Have I mentioned we had am amazing view from our room balcony of city creek and temple square! That morning we had planned to go the the grand America brunch so we got all fancied up and headed over there! Trey and jack were both complaining about having to be dressed up that was until the Utah football coach walked over to our table and told them how sharp they looked. He also complimented me on having such well behaved kids (I'll pay myself on the back now) and such a beautiful family! To bad Richard missed all that action he was off getting food! Treys favorite part was the tiny little hot chocolates, elf sized he called them! Harper was in Mac and cheese heaven and so was jack! We all wanted to slip off into a food comma afterwards but waited till we made it home! It was such a fun weekend I hope we can do it again!
Winner, winner...
Over the weekend ksl news held a contest on instagram for the best Christmas light picture! I love instagram so I was all over this! We had already planned to take the kids to temple square this particular weekend so I knew I could get a pretty good picture. It didn't say how many pictures you could post so I did quite a few! On Monday I watched the news very impatiently. I had to take jack to school and didn't think I would get to see it but they showed it at the last second and I won! Trey baby was on tv (basically his life long dream) and I won a $25 iTunes card! It was pretty darn exciting! It was also fun because I just happened to be on skype with Richard so he was able to see us win too!

Christmas magic....
A magical surprise greeted Trey when he came home from school today! Our magic elf came down from the north pole to visit the kids over the holiday season to make sure they are being nice! He brought a letter from Santa and cookies! The kids are so excited, they named him mistletoe! Love this time of year!
Santas coming to town....
Me and the kids were out Christmas shopping on Saturday and decided to hit up the "good" Walmart! I took my chances because i really wanted a real pine wreath for the front door! We walked into the garden center to hurry and grab one and guess who was sitting there! The big man himself! The kids weren't really prepared to tell Santa what they wanted but they winged it pretty good! Walmart Santa was a little off his game he needed a few dozen cookies, a hearing aid and a small dose of Christmas spirit but oh well! I wouldn't expect anymore from a Santa of Walmart! Aleast his elf was jolly! Oh and Harper didn't want a thing to do with him (i can't blame her) shocker!
Its beginning to look alot like....
Christmas!!! The day after Thanksgiving we busted out the tree! We actually have two trees but this is the only one the kids will kind of help decorate! They just really aren't into it! Trey helped a little more then usual, but mostly its just a mom project! They love to see it finished! Maybe as they get older they will like it more! Harper loves the tree though she comes down every morning and waits for it to be turned on so she can say, "oh, pretty!!!" We love having our house decorated for Christmas!
Our first Thanksgiving....
This year we had our first family Thanksgiving! I was a little stressed about how it would turn out, but it was amazing! It was kind of nice to not have to be anywhere and just be on our own schedule. Richard had to work the first part of the day so me and the kids had plenty of time to get everything ready! Our turkey turned out amazing as did everything else I made! I'm so grateful for this little family of ours...i don't know what i would do with out them all! Happy Thanksgiving!

My view...
If you didn't know this girl is a daddys girl. I'm secretly a little sad about it. Anyway she hates it when Richard leaves to go to work! Since the new twilight movie has come out he has been gone more then usual. We've hardly seen him all weekend, which most of us can deal with but not this girl. She is just sad! She sits by the window looking for him to come home, sits by the back door listening for the garage door to go up. She's even resorted to starring at a picture of him on my phone. She kiss it and say miss you and love you! It's really kind of adorable until the crying starts then it's just plain sad. She just loves her daddy! Yesterday when he left she just couldn't take it and cried for a good 20 minutes. The best thing about it though is when he comes home. Harper gets so excited when she hears the garage door. She takes off in a dead run to find her daddy! It's pretty darn sweet!

Drink...
I thought I loved Caramel apple cider...that was until I had salted caramel hot chocolate! Pretty much the best!
Won't live without...
This man...I honestly don't think I could make it through the day without him. I miss him from the second he leaves everyday til the minute he comes home. I wish I could just stay right in this spot forever...all day long!

Color....
I've been starring at this fabric for three straight days and so glad to finally be finished! I ordered it a bit ago for a baby gift and it didn't show up till a few days before the shower. So I've been crazy trying to get this done! I finished it in just the nick of time! I love these blankets but making them is just so much work! So glad it's worth it in the end to see the finished product!

Something that starts with c...
Can you all say clearance! Specifically Halloween clearance at Walmart! Last year we hit it up and scored big time and this year didn't disappoint! We came home with some great stuff including a pretty awesome inflatable! Now we just have to wait till next year to enjoy it! Who am i kidding me and jack broke that enormous inflatable out and blew it up in our kitchen! That was 30 good minutes of entertainment!
