We had a fabulous Thanksgiving with Grandma and Grandpa Burch! Too bad time passes so quickly! This year has brought us much to be thankful for. And why not show it with more delightful pictures of the twins (our greatest blessing this year)? Hope ya'll aren't getting tired of them yet! :)


Clark and Kayloni in their finest (after church)


Ever wonder what goes on in their heads?


Yummy fingers!


Kayloni concerned that BYU won't win.


Clark's shirt says it all!

Happy Halloween?

It was lots of fun dressing up the babies in their jack-o-lantern costumes (thank you Grandma Burch for the matching hats and socks)! Friday we went to a party and got to show off the babies a little. Saturday we didn't go trick-or-treating, but enjoyed a nice quiet evening dressed up at home! We had a total of three, yes three, trick-or-treaters! Hope everyone else had a good Halloween!

Could that really be Kayloni SMILING while she is in her car seat?

Babies and Blessings in Utah

Thanks to Everyone who helped make our trip to Utah a success. We really enjoyed our trip and we were glad that so many could come to the babies' blessing. Below are some pics from the trip.

Just the Cutest Little Babies Ever - Clark and Kayloni

The pictures speak for themselves. We may be biased, but they are the cutest babies in the universe (or at least the solar system).









I told you !!!

Look who came to visit!

Carli, Jordan and Emmett came to visit us! Carli rode down with some friends and watched their little boy Tyler, while they went to Disneyland for a few days and then stayed and will fly back to Provo this weekend. We miss Troy and wish he could have come to.
Here's sweet little Emmett. He is such a happy baby!
Jordan checking out his Mickey Mouse pancake that Grandpa made for him. Complete with M&M's ,which of course, he ate all of ...and then left most of the pancake!
(Mom and Dad are in charge of "healthy breakfast" right?)

Grandpa and Emmett...do you think they are related??


Grandpa, Carli and a cute Dalmatian puppy (Jordan) one night at
Disneyland Trick or Treat Party!
He rode the carousel but would only sit on a "bench" with Mom, so grandpa rode the "shark" as it went up and down...to bad my picture of that didn't turn out!!
Jordan did ride the Ferris (sp?) wheel and the rockets (at CA Adventure).

Kayloni and Hayley and Kayloni

When Erin dressed Kayloni in her white dress and headband I told her I had a picture of Hayley and Kayloni that I had to show her. So, I am finally getting it posted.

Kayloni

Don't you think they look quite a bit alike...even tho H&K are quite a bit older? I don't know if the pictures show it as much, but in person I sure thought they looked alike!!

Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta 2009

Early morning photos at Balloon Fiesta Park. This was a mass ascension of special-shape balloons. The photos were not professionally taken. This one of Albuquerque's biggest attractions because it has 100's of amazing hot air balloons and more than 20 different breakfast burrito vendors (oh yeah!!!).




Smokey Bear (a New Mexico native) and the Ark in the background. Shortly after I took this photo, Smokey ate one of the penguins from the Ark. Noah was ticked.


This is what Jordan would call a train. To give you an idea how big the balloon is, see if you can see the person in the basket. Can you tell what flavor of toothpaste he is wearing? Exactly.



This is a flying house. It is built out of hot air, just like the latest house version of the health bill.



These are balloons, except the flying clown fish, that's real.

This picture was taken in honor of Grandma Jones, a 50 feet tall can of Pepsi.


This is the largest Holstein in the world. And she flies. And yes, the owners wait for her to do her business before she takes off.


The Wells Fargo stagecoach.


Independence Hall in Philadelphia, PA. I took this when I had an interview over there last year. It is hallowed ground, where our inspired constitution was written. Our nation has historically been guided by this freedom-preserving document. I HOPE that doesn't CHANGE. Sorry its not a balloon, I just had not shown this picture to anyone yet.



A spooky floating Jack-o-Lantern.



This pumpkin is not feeling well.


More Balloons!!!

A picture of our beautiful baby Kayloni, who, although gassy, is not a balloon.

Grandma Pam in ABQ with our twins

Hi from ABQ! I came to ABQ on Aug 12th, planning to stay until the 22nd. After about a day-and-a-half I could see that they were going to need more help. It was difficult to handle both babies alone...because you could only go as far as the attached cord/tube would let you...or else you had to haul it all with you!! So I stayed until the 26th and then met Paul in PHX and rode home to CA with him.

It was great to be home and get to spend some time with Paul and with Hayley and to catch up with things in our ward. Hayley had come home with some friends for the week, but spent some of the time in San Diego w/them as well as at the beach and Magic Mountain. I was glad for the time that we did have!

I returned to ABQ on Monday the 31st with plans to stay until the 12th. We figured they would be off the "wires" by then. BUT they are doing great and are already off all that! YEAH!! They are so sweet and cuddly and I'm soaking up all of it that I can!!


(This picture is supposed to be down under the heading "Tired, busy, happy Dad"...editing this is not working....maybe because it's 2 am!! )
