OPINION

RICK STRANGE, Justice.

The jury convicted Willie Curtis May-field of killing Emma London 1 and Fran cis P. Hodges 2 while burglarizing, or attempting to burglarize, their home. The State elected not to seek the death penalty; therefore, the trial court sentenced appellant to life in prison in each cause. Appellant challenges his convictions, alleging the evidence is legally insufficient to support a finding that he entered the victims’ house without their consent and, therefore, is legally insufficient to establish burglary. We find no error and affirm appellant’s convictions.
