Photo Dump

The latest and greatest from the Dan and Brittany Burton clan:
















Halloween 2010. Abby was Nala from The Lion King. I put my foot down and stopped letting her watch The Lion King for a few days cause I got so sick of hearing it in the background.





































Grandma Bowen with her awesome Halloween Quilt. I mean seriously, how hip is she at 86 (or something like that) with all those funky, fun Halloween prints. She made this quilt this year! See how I've been inspired by generations of quilters in my family!!?
















Zion National Park on Veteran's Day (Did you know you can get into National Parks for free on Veteran's Day!?)

































































Olive 5 Months Old!







































This girl is not a smiler like Abby was. We have to work a little to catch her smiles on film.














Attempts at getting Abby to smile for the camera. This girl is such a character:

Meet Daniel and Brittany

The challenge that began with "Have a nice life, Daniel Burton" is progressing with favorable results. Surviving and thriving on lively discussions about books, Abby, or the post-grad school world, the Burtons show signs of excellent health and familial success.

Dan and Britt met on a hot July 4th in 2005. Shortly after inviting her to join him for a panoramic view of the Independence Day fireworks, and not long after her denial, Daniel and Britt agreed to break the ice over ice cream. They soon realized that they were both book geeks, decided a permanent union was worth evaluating, and were married just over a year later on another beautiful July day.

After graduating with a law degree from both he and Brittany's alma mater's rival, Daniel is corporate counsel at the Woodbury Corporation, a commercial real estate management and development company in Salt Lake City. Meanwhile, and far more interestingly, Brittany is raising a new generation of Burtons as full-time mother and family creative director. Abby is two and a half, and #2 is on the way, with arrival expected in late June of 2011. The Burtons look forward to many years of exploring canyons, creeks, and mountain tops, swapping novels, notes, and ideas, and enjoying great discussions about people, politics, and their family.

Daniel and Brittany are both graduates of the 2002 class of Brigham Young University. Abby is gunning to graduate from diapers, sooner than later.
