Look out world, here we come!

Del & Josh helping out with breakfast, mmmmm, bacon!




We had our Brownie sleepover on Friday night. I had all of these great plans for a fun and event filled evening. There was going to be smores, a campfire, charades and then of course girls giggling in the tent next to mine. Well, due to the weather, none of that happened. It's amazing what mother nature will throw at you to make you just put your arms in the air and say I give up. The girls kept good spirits and even though the tent got wet and we had to move inside, I think they had a fun night. We never did get to do our smores but they did "decorate" the first girl to fall asleep with a "yarn" spiderweb. Our second leader had something come up with her family so she didn't make it. We were very grateful that a wonderful Grandma was willing to step in so we could go to the zoo Saturday morning. The pictures I have are all of course "after" the storm moved us all inside. Del & Josh were our handy bacon makers for breakfast. I think they had a lot of fun eating as much as cooking :)

Our wonderful Grandma helper, Elaine Ferguson, helped a ton by driving us in her Suburban and helping the girls with our animal scavenger hunt. The girls had to find animals with certain types of habitats as well as finding animals with certain types of fur/scales/camouflaging. We were able to ride on the new carousel as well. They also made their hats that they wore to the zoo to keep the sun off.

Sooo......

Well, there's no reason to beat around the bush. Some of you already know but our "little" family is going to get a little bigger. We found out last week that we are expecting the last little Price. We knew when we decided to have Seth that we were going to have one more and this time it just took a little longer. Baby Price will make an appearance just before Halloween, Oct 23rd. We are getting excited and for the moment feeling good. We'll see how long that lasts. Can I just tell you how glad I am it is not going to be in November or December. LOL.

My lil' Seth....not so little

Image
Every year I take the little kids to get their birthday pictures done in November and December. Since I wanted to get a new family picture with everyone I decided to wait. My sister Kris and her daughter Dawn are here visiting from Ohio and Dawn wanted to get a few pictures taken of her little boy AJ who is 5 months old. I told her about Kiddie Kandids and thought hey, I should get Seth's done since I don't have a single pic of him on my "kid" shelf other than when he turned 1. Emma was bummed that we didn't get her pic taken but I promised her we would go soon. I'm also looking forward to doing Adam's senior pics for next year as well as Josh's mission (keep your fingers crossed) pics in the next month or two. Anyway, here are the ones of my "not" so lil' guy who is now 2 1/2.....I love how they turned out.

Pres Monson :)

I just have to say, I thank Thee O God for a Prophet!!! For years I have sat back in silent admiration for our dear, loving prophet. I have been inspired and humbled by many of his wonderful teachings. I know that I'm not really supposed to share many of my work experiences but I couldn't help share a wonderful, humorous side of our prophet. Monday night I took a call from Pres Monson, he was looking for one of his secretaries who happened to not be available. He said that he would try again later and that maybe he would take a drive. He joked and even mentioned taking a walk on the boardwalk. I don't know how it happened but all of a sudden he and I were talking about Monopoly and he was quizzing me on the different names on the Monopoly board. I have to admit I must be a lousy Monopoly player, I could only remember a few of the properties. I even cheated a little and tried to google the Monopoly board for help. Pres Monson just laughed and said he's played longer th...
