I never was 100% sure on how to write the plural form of Davis. I finally realized I could look it up today on the internet. When a last name ends in a "z" or a "s," you add an -es to pluralize it. I previously thought by putting an apostrophe at the end could not only signify the possessive form but also pluralize. Now I can no longer embarass myself. Here's a nifty website to use as a reference:

Interesting! I thought the same thing about the apostrophe at the end!
I've been doing in wrong for years!! I'm glad you told me since my last name ends in an s too! Love your blogs.
Totally random that I checked this blog, but thank you on behalf of people with last names ending in 's' everywhere. PS: For our wedding someone gave us a hymn book with our name engraved on the cover and it says "The Watkin's" Hope that wasn't from you. :)
