November Happenings

Here is our November update from windy Pocatello.


Britton, Camden, Drew, Peyton, Braden, & Will


Peyton on the left and Braden on the right demonstrating the absolute unnecessity of buying toys.

Britton is in the process of transitioning to life without a daily nap.  Some days he just can't resist the urge to catch a few ZZZZ's, even in the most unlikely of positions.

On the 7th I turned another year older.  Can anyone guess how old I am.  Thanks Talli for the recipe for the yummiest cake ever.

Braden is investigating Michelle's new braces.  We are just correcting her one imperfection, that slightly rotated lateral!

Setting up our wonderful Christmas Tree.  Maybe next year we will finally have a real tree.

Our month started off with a ton of driving.  Thursday, the 1st after work we all drove to Boise.  The next day I attended a CE course titled "Everything you wanted to know about street drugs, but were afraid to ask."  While I went to the lecture Michelle and the boys hung out with the Tadjes.  Thanks Jared and Trina for letting us stay the night and invade your beautiful home for a day.  Everyone had a great time and that evening we made the long drive back to Pocatello.  The next morning, on Saturday, I started my moonlighting job in Twin Falls, so I woke up at 4:30 and made the 120 mile drive to work for 10 hours.  The next morning, Sunday we made a day trip to Salt Lake for blessing of Austin Allen(newest nephew in Michelle's family).  So in 4 days we drove about 1100 miles with twin 18 month olds that get very tired of driving.  Thank goodness Camden and Britton have the DVD to watch.

On the 7th I turned another year old.  I got a new universal remote(what more could a man want?).  Michelle made me the yummiest kahlua cake(thanks for the recipe Talli) and all in all it was a great birthday.

For Thanksgiving we traveled to SLC to Granpa & Grandma Burns house.  It was a great turkey dinner with good times with the family.  We stayed in Riverton with my sister til saturday and unfortunately on Friday Camden came down with a ragin case of Conjuctivitis(pink eye), so hopefully he didn't spread the love.

We set up all the Christmas decorations to put us in the holiday mood to close a now very cold and windy month of November.


Here is a Christmas greeting from the Burns Boys.

TAG I'm It

So, a few weeks ago Emily Tagged me.  Since Super Sat & our Church talks are over (thank Heavens) I have no excuse. 
Here are the rules:
1. The player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves- try to find 6 you haven't posted.
2. At the end of the post, the player tags 6 people and posts their names, and then goes to their blog and leaves them a comment, letting them know they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog for the rules.

*I went down to Texas to be a Flight Attendant for Southwest Airlines when I was 23.  After a few days I came home.  (I think I am on the list that says I can't ever be a Flight Attendant for them)

*When I worked for the Pie Pantry at Cherry Hill, a lady told me she wanted her pie warm after I had already put the ice cream on it.  So I picked up the ice cream with my fingers right in front of her.. I don't understand why she was mad..

*I won a Tiffany shirt and perfume from a radio station.

*I have a habit of looking at peoples teeth, I am not sure why?  I also thought boys in High School were hot with braces.

*I am coping Emily with the interview question... I was once asked in a job interview what kind of Car I would be... I said that I would be a Jeep, so that I can go over anything and go anywhere I wanted... I got the job.

*I am obsessed with having the kitchen clean before I go to bed.

So now I am tagging Talli, Jessica, Anna, Charlynn, David, and I am going to have to think of a 6th..
