The Joneses Memorial Day Party

We had a big Jones party on Memorial Day.  It was so much fun.  Everyone was able to be there (except Eric, of course--we missed you son.)  We had the party at Grandpa Jones' house and it was wonderful.

Kristin, Grandpa, and Malissa

Todd, Shauna, Mike, and Ryan.  "C'mon you guys, smile already!" Ha

What a good looking bunch!

Aaron and Rob

Grandpa Jones has this really cool tree in his backyard, which just happens to be perfect for climbing high!  That's Sierra on the left, Sophie in the middle, Alexis on the right, and Aubrey is at the bottom of the tree..  I was a little nervous about these crazy monkeys!

Same kids, but Aubrey is in the tree this time

Alexis is such a good climber...she was making me quite nervous.  (Well, they all were!)

Dallin, Matthew, Zach, and Brandon...eating.  What else would they be doing?

Parker, Owen, and Makenna.

Shauna braded Sophie's hair with these beauiful clips...so cute!

 

Another picture of most everyone (except the kids)

This is Grandpa Jones' sister, Aunt Pat, Mike, and Anissa

 



 

The "four" Musketeers!  There could be some serious damage accomplished by these little creatures.  But it was so fun to see them play together! 

 

Jacob, Spencer, Kyle, and AJ

 



Emma and Alice, (and Kyle trying to "photo bomb" in the back.)  HA!  We see you Kyle!  :)

 

This is Mike and Shauna's dog, Charlie.  He's a little neurotic (like our Ziggy), so he had to stay in the kennel in the back room.  He's so cute though!!

 



 

Sweet Annie, who is growing up WAY TOO FAST!!  Look how beautiful she is!  (You'd better stay hidden in your bedroom for awhile, so the boys will leave you alone!)

 



 

We celebrated Parker's birthday too.  Malissa made a cute Mario cake!  He turned 4 years old!

 

 

Parker and his Dad, Ryan

 



 

"Blow out your candle!"  Sweet Parker!  (And that's Owen on the left.)

 



 

Malissa, Ryan, Parker, and Makenna (in front)...

 



 

Hey, there's even a picture of me and Todd.  Ah, how sweet!  :)

 

It was a very fun and successful party with the Jones family!  The weekend after Memorial day, our little family went up to Grandma Jones' grave and put a few roses on her tombstone.  Roses were her very favorite and these actually came from our own front yard!

 

We love and miss you Grandma Jones! 

 



 

 

It's a good thing we are making memories to last a lifetime!!
