Merry Christmas from the Burkes!


My Christmas elves

James had a good grip on Santa's beard!


Isaac, James and Evie with Santa and his elves. James and Evie's expressions look like "what the heck is going on!"... ha ha ha. Isaac was so cute.....this was really the first time that he got real excited to see Santa! When Santa gave him his goodie bag, Isaac said..."Hey, there's you on this bag!" ha ha. Then he told Santa that he liked it when he said "Dash away, dash away all" in his cartoon. I love it, it was so cute! Santa just laughed and said, "Yes, dash away, dash away!" Isaac was thrilled!

Enjoying Christmas Time!

Here is my attempt at some semi-formal Christmas photos, but I guess the batteries for the flash were running low cause everytime I would try to snap the photo...the red light would come on and two seconds later it would take the picture, so any sort of smile they had on their face turned to an expression of, 'what's that red light in my face' before it actually took the picture. ha ha!


Hanging out and enjoying the Christmas decorations.








Evie is such a beautiful girl that even in blue she couldn't be mistaken for a boy! And just look at that handsome smile James has!



Getting ready for Christmas!



Here is Isaac and his girlfriend, Sierra. She belongs to my friend, Debbie. Me, Debbie and Sarah hang out at Debbie's house while our husbands have band practice (Michael's music).




Here is Sarah with her baby, Asher. He wears the ear muffs to protect his ears from the loud music whenever Sarah has to go into the garage to talk to her husband. Doesn't he look so cute!!





Michael taking care of the babies. This is the awesome pillow we have that also allows me to nurse both babies at the same time!





Here we are putting the lights on our tree. James was sleeping in his crib. Here come the big lights!
Our cute Isaac! We need two more stockings this year!

Thanksgiving at Disneyland 2007





Here we are having lunch. Grandma has Evie and I'm holding James. Next to Lisa is her finance, Patrick....also lovingly known as Patsy. The only one missing from the pictures is my Dad because he was taking all the pictures. :-)



Here we are waiting for the parade to start. Isaac was making us laugh with his funny faces. Grandpa Burke was standing on the sidelines with Evie trying to keep her happy.

Twins watch and listen to Mom

I sat down to practice guitar/singing....and Evie started making cooing noises that sounded a lot like she was trying to sing. My Dad got the camera out and I began again....of course she didn't do it again :-/ ha ha but, in this video we captured her cooing....it sounded a little bit like before, but not the singing type of cooing.....still very cute. :-)

Hanging out with Mom

One of the few pictures with both of them smiling!! :-)

Tried to get all of my kids to smile for the camera. Isaac was in a silly mood, James was just chillin' out and Evie was not having it! ha ha

Updated photos November 8, 2007

Isaac showing his Jedi moves.










Evie gives her big cute grin while James looks bewildered. :-)






Evie's got a brand new bow! Doesn't she look so cute with her attitude! ha ha James is not amused and a bit frightened by how hard I was laughing at Evie.....ha ha ....Evie didn't seem phased. ha ha





Michael with his kids, so proud!


















Hanging out in their bouncy seats still in their jammies. I love the innocent looks on their faces.

Halloween Festivities

Here is Isaac with his pumpkin that he decorated in Kindergarten, look at how cute he is....so proud! :-)
Next, the kids at one of the pumpkin patches in Half Moon Bay...we got them all dressed up as pumpkins!


Here is Isaac with the jack-o-lantern that he did himself, Michael only helped him carve out the eyes and nose. Isaac is doing his scary Halloween face. ha ha



Isaac as the cutest Peter Pan ever!



Michael with James as one of the lost boys from Peter Pan.


Here I am with Evelyn....we are both dressed as Tinker-bell. Isaac loves Peter Pan right now, and this was all his idea...he told us who he wanted us to be. :-)


We are at the "Trunk-or-Treat" at our church. Grandpa Burke is Smee, Grandma is a lady pirate....and Isaac wanted Michael to be Captian Hook, but we couldn't get that costume pulled together in time. Isaac is holding a majic wand that he grabbed from our friend Sarah who was Glenda the Good Witch. :-)


Here is Isaac with his Aunt Lisa (Michael's sister) she came to the party later because she had to work, that's why she isn't in the previous picture.

My kids October 2007





Here are current pictures (as of October 2007) of Isaac, James and Evie. They are growing so fast! I'm having so much fun being their Mom! :-)

Babies blessing day



This whole blog thing is new to us, so this isn't posted chronologically, but I realized that I wanted to post the pictures from the twins blessing day. They were blessed at 6 weeks old. From left to right....Grandpa Burke, Grandma Burke, Michael, Janeen with Evie, Grandma Jensen with James, Grandpa Jensen and Isaac in front.

It's funny because both pictures they are crying. I didn't get them smiling....they were ready to get out of those outfits and take a nap! :-)
