CHRISTMAS VACATION!

It is definitely time to celebrate! I'm finally done with the semester, so Christmas can finally start! Yay! Here are a few pics of the festivities! We went down to SLC a couple weekends ago to see the lights on Temple square, our Jones family tradition! It was sooo cold, but it's always fun to see.

Shane, Jake, and Dreyson (Jennie's little boy)

We also started a new tradition of making Gingerbread houses! They turned out really cute, and surprisingly (no thanks to Jake) our even ended up with SOME candy on it! He was definitely more interested in eating the candy than he was putting it on the house. I also seem to be finding a few less pieces on the house every day...sneaky Snakey!

Me, Jakey and Kooper (Jacque's little boy) I know, I know...pregnancy looks so good on me...or NOT.



For those of you who didn't know...we're expecting! Our newest addition should be here early summer, and we're very excited. Jake's not so sure about it, he keeps telling me to "get that baby outta there"!! But he's pretty positive it's a baby sister....we'll keep our fingers crossed.

Happy Holidays everyone!!

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

I know...about time, right? Check back soon!

Ahh...SUMMER!

Finals week has come and gone...although it didn't go quite as good as expected, at least it's over, right? So, technically....it's SUMMER!! We have finally had a few warm days, and Jakey has been DYING to go outside! Here are a few pics of us enjoying the SUNSHINE!

If anybody knows my dad...you know how "thrilled" he was to see this when he came home! :)

But how could you resist this???

Check out that form!

Jakey woke up from his nap with the funkiest hair! We both thought it was pretty funny.

LOOK at what's almost done!! We are on the count down to moving day! It should be completely done next Wed. We can hardly wait!!

Finals week....here I come!

So, finals week is still two weeks away, but here's the official "to-do" list...

this week: 3 tests, Saturday lab, and a power point presentation

next week: 2 tests and a paper

the next week: 2 finals

Should be fun right? oh yeah...and fit in there somewhere MOVING! Our house should be done in the next couple of weeks! We are getting pretty excited! Jake keeps telling us that he want to "go home"...we're assuming that means to his new house. Hopefully that transition will go smoothly for him! He's going to miss his Papa and Gwama! Here are a few pics from the past couple of weeks...the first one I just couldn't resist, he's too cute!!

Jakey got his first bee sting last week...we couldn't help but document! In Jake's words: "Buggie Owie!!!"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAKEY!!

Jake turned two today! We had a fun-filled weekend of parties and birthday cake! I can't believe two years went by this fast. He's officially into the "terrible two's" and we've got the tantrums to prove it! But Shane and I love him to death, and he really is such a sweet little boy.

Here are a few pics from this weekend.

Jake couldn't have been more excited when we brought his "cicle" (bicycle) upstairs. He didn't want to get off of it all night. And, he obviously enjoyed his cake and icecream! He had wanted a cake with a "car with the lights" (Shane's police car) which was no easy feat! But it turned out okay, and Jake was thrilled! He had to blow out the candles three or four times! We love our little two year old so much!! Happy Birthday Snakey!

Welcome Back!

I know...it's been forever. A lot has happened since October! We said "goodbye" to Pheasantridge and "hello" to my parent's house! (Thanks mom and dad!!) Our new house should be done in about 6 weeks and we can't wait! Also, Jake will be TWO next week!! I can't believe it! He's getting so big, and even more cute! Here are a few pictures from over the winter...and happened to still be on my camera. If you're lucky, you may even get a video!

Oh yeah...Did I mention we got a new dog? The newest member of the family, Sage.

This was Jake's favorite Christmas present...he wouldn't get out of it, and would you argue with that face?

COOKIES!!

Now, try to ignore the parents and focus on the cute little boy!
