Law school Halloween party

Just in case you can't tell, I was a vampire and Jake was my victim. He rigged tubes to his punctures with a pump and would ooze blood out the holes. He steadily grew more and more drenched throughout the evening as he showed more and more people his gruesome invention. We had a lot of fun and were both sore the next day from all the dancing...I know we are out of shape. Below was one of my favorite other costumed couples there... except we didn't get the other 5 wives. It was awesome, they were all in DI dresses and most looked pregnant. I think 3 were girls and 3 were boys dressed as plig wives. Actually I just realized you can see two of the boys in the background of the pic of Jake and I.

FWD:lyndi robbed the jewlery store and told them make her a grill???????????????

My brother in law took this and sent it to me with this message- lyndi robbed the jewlery store and told them make her a grill

Yeah for being potty trained!

She's wearing her big girl panties and thinks they are so cute!

Family Pictures

My brave cousin took some family pictures the other Sunday. We did our little mac fam, then the Prince fam and the extended Prince..... would herd sound too mean. It was about 80 people and we were still missing around 10 so it was quite the group!
Then here is a little candid of me and Lyndi....what are we looking at? I think it was a plane, just so we don't keep you up at night.Then here is my fun family. I loved that my parents were fine with whatever (some of the other families wanted only the stiff traditional portraits) cause I think this is my favorite out of all the other families. Can you tell Lyndi was completely done taking pictures at this point? Then I liked how she captured some personality in our siblings photo.

Random Fun

I got to go visit my friend Chelsie who I lived with during my Dixie College days and her little boy Spencer is getting sooo big and he's just adorable.

We also got to go to my little brother Hyrum's soccer game. It was freezing but fun! He is probably almost a foot shorter than most of the boys on the team but deffinitely one of the best little guys out there. ( not even being prejudice...my brother ROCKS!)

We went on our first train ride to visit daddy! Lyndi made friends with another little girl and had fun talking to her. She bumped her lip though while she was excitedly jumping around and I didn't have a napkin or anything. We took a picture of her fat lip "to show Daddy" and it made her feel better.

THE WEEZ

I just had the amazing opportunity to go to the Weezer concert with my 3 brothers and two cousins with their spouses! Weezer was AWESOME and it was so fun to be there with family and have a blast feeding off eachothers excitment and everything. Also the biggest weezer fan out of all of us (my cousin James) was even able to go up on stage with some other radio station picked people and play an instrument with the band to "Beverly Hills" and "Hip Hip". They may be a bit wierd or different but so much cleaner and fun than the opening bands. I really appreciate when people can express their feelings and communicate something real instead of blurted out statements just to use profanity. Anywho I'll get off my soap box and show you the pics!

I know I look like a ghost but here we are waiting for it to start. Right to left its me then my bros Braden, then Tyler and the one flashing a sign is my bros friend Trenton.

Then down below is me and my cousin Sarah. The one below that is James, Tiara (his wife) and my brother Ryan with the red hair.

Then here are some pics of the stage when my cousin go to go up...he's in the far second to left. Sorry my camera doesn't have a good zoom. And last we have us all showing our weez spirit!

So sweet when they're sleeping

Marker Mishap

Lyndi got ahold of the black permnant marker and decided she wanted some tatoos like daddy!

How bout them apples!

Aren't they pretty though? The ones that didn't have worms at least and they are so delicous! I made some apple crisp but if any of you have nummy recipes or ideas of how to use them up let me know.

I was out in the yard picking apples and it started to snow! I want my autumn back!

Small spaces

Lyndi loves small spaces, wether its a laundry basket, box, the dryer (dangerous I know), or cupboards. In this picture she's snuggled up watching Blue's clues. So sweet!

cONFERENCE in gENERAL

So I decided that since "blogs" were mentioned by name a couple times in general conference it was about time that I share a bit of my thoughts on one of the most important subjects in my life. I love my daughter and husband very much and for that reason I feel very blessed to have the gift of the gospel in my life. It has brought me more comfort, guidance and peace than any other one thing in my life. So it would be very ungrateful and in a way greedy not to share my thoughts, beliefs, and feelings about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. My testimony itself is very simple and often helps to simplify the chaos of my life. There are things Jake and I have accomplished that were only possible because of the help we recieved through the gospel. I know I am given help on a daily basis and so I know my Heavenly Father knows and loves me individually. I also have felt the healing powers of repentance through Jesus Christ and so I know he lives and suffered for each one of us individually so that we can be forgiven of our sins and return to live with our Heavenly Father. I have felt the confirmation of the spirit and now know that Thomas S. Monson is a true prophet and mouth peice of God as well as Joseph Smith was when he restored the church on the earth. I'm thankful for the temple and the ordinances that are performed there to make it possible for families to be together forever. I know that as a people, LDS people are imperfect and we make mistakes and judge others but if you look at the teachings in conference or in the Book of Mormon you will know that it is only because we are not perfect and that we are taught to be like Jesus Christ and love others without judgement. With all my heart I testify to the truthfulness of these things and say them in the name of Jesus Christ amen.
