Decorated sugar cookies









Had Dallin's birthday party, with an erupting volcano cake!

We also had our first cub scout meeting, a 4th grade choir concert, church choir practice, a Christmas party, a dr. appointment, piano lessons, a late night viewing of "New Moon", and visiting teaching. Just to name a few of the other "events" of the week!

But through it all we manage to keep smiling!

I CaN'T bEliEvE He'S fOuR!!!!


I know this looks like a very forced smile, but he really was happy to be 4!

Breggan wanted a party at Chuck E Cheese, so we invited a few friends who didn't mind being exposed to the cold and cough germs that we had at our house. Or what ever other germs Chuck E Cheese may have had to share. (Not sure who's idea it was to go to Chuck E Cheese at 12:30 on a Saturday!!)




We played lots of games...



Opened presents.....







And called it a great party!

Sorry....this one is for the scrapbooks!



This is what being 26 weeks pregnant with your 6th child looks like.

Sorry, not sure why it turned out blurry!

Halloween 2009

Another great Halloween was had by all at the Prince house.

Pirate Dallin.....




Puppy Breggan.......


Chinese princess Madellyn......



Batgirl Aubree......



Chicken Sydnee.....



We did the ward trunk or treat, first this year. It took Sydnee going to about 2 cars until she figured out what everyone was doing. Rather than saying "trick-or-treat" she would just do her cute little grunt at every car until she got candy!

Breggan is still the nervous one! Poor kid continues to tell us he doesn't want to go to any scary stores. That includes Target, Walmart, Walgreens, well basically it means ANY store that has Halloween decorations! He was quite relieved when we went to Target today, and he saw that they had Christmas decorations up instead of "scary ones".

Dallin and Madellyn had Halloween parties at school, they always come home with so much candy! Unfortunately for Madellyn once you hit 4th grade you no longer get to dress up for the school parties. So she was a little worried about what her day would be like, but she came home very pleased at how much fun she still had, even though she didn't get to dress up!

Breggan and Sydnee got to go with me to Aubree's class party, and they had a blast. The teachers and helpers included them just like the other students! Aubree was so cute sharing her chair with Breggan, and helping him play games and do the crafts.





Now that Halloween is over.......Bring on the birthdays, Thanksgiving and Christmas!!

Family Game Night!




Our kids love to have family game night. We have tried to start a tradition of having a game night every week. One of their favorite games to play is Monopoly. Let me just say how much fun, and QUICKER, the game is now that you can play the electronic edition!

Veggie Car!

Dallin's first assignment for a class he's in this year was to build a car out of fruits, and or vegetables. It was an assignment that I was very glad he had Bill to help him out with!




The final project was a monster truck, complete with a celery driver, pumpkin big wheels, and a potato body!




Here he is racing his car.


NOW WE HAVE NEXT YEAR TO LOOK FORWARD TO....A VEGGIE/FRUIT BOAT!

In CaSE You HAven'T HeaRd.........


The kids once again had to pop balloons to get the answer they were looking for....

BOY or GIRL



The answer is.........

A GIRL!!!

We are so excited! We were all pretty sure it was going to be a boy, but I guess baby number six thought she could break the boy, girl pattern!


Of course I have to add a cute ultrasound picture, it's her leg and cute foot.
