The December Madness



Mckay loved having Tyler and Syd home during Christmas break!!

Uncle Mark, Ty and Syd

We had quite the gang over Christmas morning

Sydney, doll baby Jesus, Tyler, baby Jesus (Ellie), Dallin 

Grandpa D., Syd and Ty at Grandma's Christmas Eve sing-a-long

Tyler and Syd loving Christmas morning. I think McKay liked the pink  barbie jeep the most.


The WIGGLE -ATOR, this was the favorite toy from Grandpa and Grandma A. This really is such a fun toy for all ages. Sometimes I sneak a ride on it:)

Grandma A. sledding with Tyler. It was freezing!

Our attempt to make a ginger bread house!!

Tyler's party watching the Utah Flash, sitting on the front row.


I think McKay thought it was his birthday, he was just
excited to be part of the party!!



Tyler and some of his old buddies from Provo.



I know I am once again way behind on blogging, but I had to blog about our crazy month of December because we had so many fun events:

-Tyler turning 8!! (That made me feel very old)

-The Hawkins twins baby blessing, an amazing event considering it took 9 years for these sweet babies to get here.

-Christmas Eve and Christmas Day - lots of fun at the Duncan Christmas Eve Party, and we were lucky enough to have most of the Adams and some of the Duncan's over to share Christmas morning with us.

-Our little trip to Zermatt in Midway. Lots of eating, swimming, sledding, riding Ty's mini-racer down the long halls and freezing on the way home when our car heater broke:)

-Tyler's baptism. What an amazing day. Almost all of our family (both sides) were able to be there, some to our surprise (Clint and Jordan and Emmi) and some that traveled so far. Thanks to all the family and good friends that were there, it was so neat to have so much wonderful support, I know it meant a lot to Tyler.  Todd took all the pictures that day so as soon as I get them I will post some pics of the baptism.

-Little Ellie's blessing. (We had lots of spiritual blessings this month that we felt so lucky to be a part of.)

-The annual Jones Breakfast on New Year's Day. We always love this little tradition and have lots of fun, but I have to admit I think by this point we were all a little exhausted:)

All these fun events and memories really topped off the great year we had. 

So here is to a new year with a million new things I want to achieve, starting out with trying to stay on top of things, even though we are already 2 weeks into January!!! Oh well one day at a time right?!?

I can't believe your crowd on Christmas morning!! I tried to get my kids those wiggle cars and couldn't find them anywhere. Can't wait to see pictures of the baptism...

I love all the pictures! I wish you kids (and you) hadn't been sick a lot of the time, we missed being able to play more.

hey Kenon, if you are still looking for those cars, I think you can get them at Funfinity in Springville and I think they just opened one in Orem by the Distribtion center. I don't know if you even still care, but they
are so much fun!
