Moody Gardens Festival of Lights

While in Houston for Christmas, we went to see the Festival of Lights at Moody Gardens in Galveston. It was a lot of fun. Luke LOVED looking at all of the lights. My favorite displays were the flowers, of course, and the nativity scene. Thanks for a great time!

The Davis Family 2008 Christmas

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Christmas 2008 in Houston

Luke had a terrific Christmas in Houston this year. He got to spend time with his aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousin. Thanks for a fantastic time!

The Box

One of the greatest things about ordering gifts online is that they normally arrive in a big box. This was one of the most fun things for Luke. He thought it was hilarious to play peek-a-boo in the box!

Spaghetti

Luke LOVES for spaghetti. Can you tell?

More mixing and crayons....

Luke still really enjoys mixing with his bowl and spoon. It keeps him occupied for several minutes at a time :) He also enjoys drawing with his crayons.

New Blocks!

Luke is loving his new blocks from Aunt Lauren and Uncle Brad. Thanks for such a fun gift!

The Car Ride Home from Houston

I need to become a more efficient packer for road trips because if/when we ever have another kid, I don't know where all the stuff is going to go, especially in the car. Needless to say, on either side of Luke's car seat in the backseat, it was piled high with toys and his stuff. Well, before we knew it, we looked back in the car and Luke had pulled out half of his toys and had them on top of himself in the car seat. It was such a sight, I had to snap a couple of pics! I will gladly accept any helpful hints on packing.

Thanksgiving in Houston

We had a relaxing time in Houston for Thanksgiving weekend with Grandma and Grandpa. Thanks for all the yummy food and the relaxing movie watching and football games. We all had a super time! Luke especially enjoyed the wagon rides and pillows!

Thanksgiving Day

The Zoo

Thanksgiving with Mimi and PawPaw

We had a fantastic Thanksgiving with Mimi, PawPaw, Uncle Brad, Aunt Lauren, Jillian, and Faith. We went to Northpark and strolled the mall and ate at PF Chang's, which was really yummy. Then we enjoyed our time at the Fort Worth Zoo. The cousins really liked all the animals. And, we ate a delicious Thanksgiving lunch and celebrated Christmas early with my brother's family. Thanks for a wonderful holiday!

More Lion Pics

Yippee!! We got the costume on at home! (after Halloween of course, thus the random green shirt underneath....) Luke LOVED dressing up as a lion - he even would "roar". So cute!!

Our Little Lion

Luke got to participate in the Halloween Parade at school on Thursday. He had so much fun as he dressed up as a lion. I don't know how his teachers did it, but they got him to wear his costume. Nate and I couldn't get him to wear it around the house. But he was delighted to wear it at school for the parade!!! I wasn't able to get very many good pictures where you can actually see him in his costume. Hopefully we can get a few more pics tonight! In these pictures he is sitting in the very back of the stroller closest to the camera.

The Class Pumpkin

You know how Luke loves pumpkins so much?? Well guess what? He was the winner of his class' pumpkin. It's the Monkey Class Pumpkin!! How appropriate for him to win. We are so thankful!

The Hat

Luke still loves his daddy's baseball hats! Maybe he should have been a baseball player for Halloween!!

Guitar Hero

We have a new guitar hero in the house!!
