Brooklyn turned 12 recently.  Yes we feel old, thank you for asking.Still still embarassed by her dad though (of which I'm clearly pleased).And she's clearly good at giving me dirty looks.But what a 12 year old really wants is clothes.Happy Belated Birthday Brooklyn!

Why is this picture on our blog???Because Brigham was still asleep at 10:13am!  We let it slide only because it was New Year's Day.  Farm boys don't sleep in.

At our ward Christmas Party (amazingly) Hudson put on a costume.He even changed costumes.He didn't make it to the stage though. It was too much. We were amazed that he even put one on. Take a good look at this picture. Zoom in if you can.Brigham tied that tie all on his own.I've been coaching him and he's been practicing since he got some real ties for his birthday. Happy Belated Birthday to

I thought this was too good not to post.This is Brooklyn's response to my trip report.

At the end of November the Rocklin Dinner MyWay (formerly Dinner Time) closed its doors. Five years after we embarked on what ended up quite the roller coaster ride, the lease came to an end and the Rocklin store shut its doors.It was quite the ride.

What? Yeah, I'm cool. My dad took me to Leatherby's for my birthday. I really liked the clown sundae.I like food.  Especially chocolate.

Brigham's tough!This is him finishing a 5k in about 37 minutes.He couldn't walk for 2 days.If only we all could be so strong.

Today it's a story about Emmelyne.Take a good look at this video. It's quite rare.You see when I took the three older kids on their first (and so far only) ski trip almost two years ago, Brigham and Emmelyne took a half day lesson. Being the Father of the Year candidate that I am, I snapped a few photos, shot a few videos, and then went skiing.When I came back a couple of hours later I looked

In September, Brooklyn & I went on an overnight backpacking trip with our friends the Smiths. I love the above picture! Brooklyn, Shaylin, Mark, and Brooklyn's attitude all posed for this picture. Yes, that is the moon. Yes, this picture was taken while we were still on the trail. Yes, that means we were hiking by moonlight. Sorry, twilight fans, there were no vampires. While I'm here

Hi all! Charles here. I know there hasn't been much activity here on the Davis Family Farm blog. Honestly Danee's kind of been busy. If you don't already know she has 5 kids and a way tougher life than I do.Anyway, I thought I'd help out on the blog side for a while. We'll see how long this lasts. I'm guessing things will be pretty succinct from me.I have two questions for you this morning:1.

OK this is Brooklyn. I made this for mom & dad for their anniversary in July. (It's a little late i know) OK not quite sure how to actually put it on the blog but here's the site:http://www.slide.com/r/s-J91Yj97z_2CgASndTgY_rKukJMNhQb?previous_view=mscd_embedded_url&view=originalyes I made that yes I know I ROCK

Run - do not walk to your kitchen and make this. I wish that I could take credit for this great food picture BUT I can take credit for making this for dinner last night. LOVED IT! I always love it when I can find a main dish recipe that does not require meat. This recipe was pretty inexpensive since I had most of the ingredients on hand. The only thing that I had to pick up was bean sprouts and

Everyday life in the Davis house is always, shall we say, interesting. Today was no exception. Brooklyn has a nasty habit of getting into "things" . Just to touch them, feel them, smell them. Yes, I realize that she is my oldest and should be well beyond this habit however I have failed as a parent because she still does it. Today I had to run to the bathroom in between

I am trying to get some of the pictures taken of my favorite recipes. Here is a salsa recipe that I have been making for years. It is my friend Debbie Johnson's own creation. I think that our families must have made this a hundred times one summer. The great thing about this recipe is that you do not have to have amazing home grown tomatoes for this to be great. This salsa has fresh chunks of

So I have mentioned before that this kid is pretty much in love with his stuffed animals. He could be totally entertained by them all day. This little piglet gets especially high usage. Besides using Theodore the chipmunk Hudson will grab "the pig" and bring me the "If you give a pig a pancake" book. Not only does he bring the pig with him to read the book he puts "the pig" in the same position

Before I put this up on Craigslist I was wondering if there are any takers out there (locally) who would be interested in this Kitchen Aid mixer and it comes with the slicer/shredder attachment. This mixer has been my old standby until I recently got my Bosch mixer that mixes up 4 loaves of bread at once. This will last you for years. Trust me. My aunt has my great grandmas original Kitchen Aid.I

This little bit of heaven is a Golden Graham smore. You will never want to go back to the traditional smore after this AND you can make them anytime of year without having to brave camping with 5 kiddos.P.S. I am working on my food photography skills right now. I was so worried about the "natural lighting" and making sure that it did not fall off the rock that I put it on, or that it did not get

Charles and I headed out for a quick 24 hours way from the kids to celebrate our 13 year anniversary. I guess that it was unlucky number 13 because on the actually day I was sick with strep throat, Brigham was still laid out on the couch from his injury and that night I had been asked to teach a class on "Simplified Entertaining". ( Too bad that I was a day late in finding this lady's blog. She
