New Year's 2010

It sure has been such a long time since i have been on this blog. So with ever New Year we start over again! One of our family traditions starts the day after Christmas! We load up the mini van and head south for theannual Rose Parade and all of the family birthdays. It is a week full of fun! This year was especially special as all the the Bob Jones' were together for the first time in many years! We Celebrated Dave,Ryan, Alexa,and Talan's Birthdays not to mention all the ones for the month of December and coming up in January! It was a great time had by all!(well almost all) We took a trip to the Zoo instead of Disneyland! The kids got along so well it was nice not to hear I'm bored! The sisters and sisters n laws got away for a little shopping as the men did a little golfing. Of course we ended the week with the parade along with some yummy mexican food! We sure missed those cousins that weren't there. This is a Jones (as in grandpa jones) tradition, so hopefully more will come next year! Hope you all have a wonderful 2010 ! Love Stephanie and family  ps here our a few pitcures of the fun!

Thanks for the fun week! There is nothing that beats spending time with cousins! We are so lucky we are within driving distance of my family. Wish we could see them more often!

Learning to swim

Every time we go down to G town Andrew always gives me the lecture on making sure I am always watching the girls especially by the pool! So this time my mom called up Kristy Ferrell( an excellent swimmer at BYU) and she had them swimming within a few days! The girls are loving being able to swim and so am I! Thanks mom and dad and of course to Kristy my girls are not afaird of the water!

My sister Celeste invited the whole gang for a day at the beach and dinner in San Clemente. There were 10 of the 17 cousins hanging out on the sand. We had a great time finding sand craps, playing in the waves and making restrooms right where we were. Thanks to the Prolo's for the good time!

Proud Dad!

What a great day! All of our children have been blessed at church by Grandpa Bob! What a special memory they will have. Joseph Talmage (JT) had a beautiful blessing reminding him about his name and what important men he is named after. Not only two of his great grandfathers but also many other wonderful Josephs we all love to read and hear about. Thank you dad for being such a great example and for your example and love of the gospel. My children are indeed lucky to have you as there "bompa bob " Thanks to the Troy Jones' and all of the Goetts and Mom and Dad for making the trip out for JT.

One month old

Wow time flies especially when I have the help of three little mommies! What big helps!

Since JT was born at the beginning of the summer we had a very low key summer with a few visitors and a lot of day trips. My sister n law Shawnel came down with her 3 boys to visit and for the baby blessing. So we headed to the park and let the kids run wild!

This year was a very quiet 4th. Our town has a celebration at the park then fireworks. We went to the park and the girls (and dad) had fun on the bouncers. Then after our friend Courtney brought us a fun red white and blue dinner! we headed to the Osh parking lot and watched the fireworks from the top of the car. J.T. and I stayed in the van.
