motherly duties
last night mikey had a little accident--really it was quite big, but anyway. as i was in the middle of doing my motherly duties anna walked in. she looked at me and looked at him and looked at the mess and replied, "i am NOT having a boy." then she turned and walked out. i suppose she doesn't remember the messes she made.

thanksgiving for the burtons
what a great weekend. we spent our 10th straight year of thanksgivings at shawn's parents in mesquite. i have not been home to my house for thanksgiving in 10 years. and really, if i don't think to much about it, i am fine with it. thanksgiving with the burtons, christmas with the granquists. it really works out well.
shawn golfed 4 of the 5 days. i read, watched tv and movies, and really did nothing--much to my liking. the kids played with some cousins. anna had an all girl sleepover with aunt cami and the other girl cousins. we went four wheelin' in kc's (shawn's youngest bro) 60-something bronco all decked out with roll bars and big tires and axles and who knows what else. and we also went out in the rhino--a four-wheeler for two. i love it. mikey could not get enough of it. hop on and ride through the arizona desert (just across the street) to your heart's delight. the weather was spectacular for such a weekend.
a bonus this year: shawn's uncle gave us his room at the paris saturday night and took us to dinner. a mini vacation within the vacation. shawn's parents watched to kids. it was great.
we had a very nice thanksgiving weekend, indeed.

just bragging...
although i shouldn't brag. i was suppose to have them done last christmas. but i made matching pillows to make up for the lateness. huh, i suppose it could just be early this year.
katie had been looking for cute matching quilts for her girls' room. she couldn't find any in her price range. so, i made them for her.
i really think they turned out great--super cute! those lucky girls.

so soon?
anna prayed this morning that we would all have a happy holidays. could the christmas music on fm 100 and kosy 106.5 be affecting her already?
like mother, like daughter
anna: "mom, i need to find my library book. where is my book."
me: "i don't know. it's not my book. did you put it away?"
anna: "last time i saw it was at the old house on the dining table."
me: "huh. that was a long time ago. i have know idea where it would be."
anna: "mom, if i don't find it, it will be overdoomed."
me: "well, i don't know what to tell you."
anna: "but mom, i can't be overdoomed. i just can't be overdoomed."
me: "you will just have to pay for it."
anna: "but i will be overdoomed. i can't be overdoomed."
me: "you should be more responsible--i don't know what to tell you."
anna: "i don't want to be overdoomed! i can't want to be overdoomed. sami was overdoomed. i don't want to be overdoomed...overdooomed...overdoomed...overdoomed."
i am thinking that anna may have the same bad library habits that i do. i know i should have said more comforting things to her, but i just loved hearing her say "overdoomed".
post script: i still haven't paid my fine. i am terrified i will get pulled over one day and haul me off to prison for my outstanding fines. i hear they do that.

homeless?
7393 South Pine Street, Midvale, Utah no longer belongs to the burton family. we are officially all done. closed. moved. finished. it has been such a hectic month but really, things went very quickly and fairly smooth. i was really sad at closing. selling a house, i learned, is an emotional process and i didn't know how i would react. we are now renting until we can decide what to do with our lives. so the new house is temporary and i am having a hard time adjusting. i keep thinking i should go "home" when i am home. and randomly i still go the old way home. but it is good. things are good. life is good.
