Brian and Michelle

First of all, I think this blog is a great idea.  I hope more family members join!  

For those who don't know us, I'll give the quick geneology:  My dad is Gary Prince (Craig's brother), whose dad is James R. Prince, who is the son of Ross Prince.

Here is an update from the Brian and Michelle Prince family.  My wife and I both graduated from BYU in 2008 and have been working in our respective fields.  I'm an engineer at ATK Launch Systems working in the commercial launch vehicles program.  My wife is a dance teacher at Granite Park Middle School.  It's a title one school which gives her the opportunity to work with kids from a wide variety of backgrounds.  

We are expecting our first - a baby girl - July 1st.  We are excited to become parents!  I've also been accepted into George Washington University Law school.  So we will be moving to Washington DC this August!  

We hope to hear from the rest of you!

A Place To Start, A Place To share

Many of you have been contacted either by your parents or I have contacted you directly. I did not have the good fortune of being at many family gatherings or family reunions due to circumstances out of my control. I have felt a yerning to get to know my Aunts and Uncles better and get to know my cousins and their families. We all have a common heritage. We are all children or grand children or great grandchildren of Ross and Hope Prince. With that common heritage, it will be interesting how "similar" we look and how our actions may be as much a function of dna as they are of environment. I have already been in contact with many of you and look forward to getting to know all of you.
