Jones Family Reunion

We were able to go to East Texas for Memorial Day, Gilmer to be exact, and have an extended Jones Family reunion. It was really fun and was hard work trying to remember everyone. I haven't seen a lot of my cousins since we were Carter's and Jacob's ages so we all looked very different. It was great to be reunited though. The kids had a great time. We were at my Dad's cousins house, Joe. He had rented some golf carts for the kids to run around his property on and that was a lot of fun for them. It gave Jenna and her cousin Braeden who is her age a lot of freedom since they could drive around by themselves. We have lots of pictures to remember our fun times by and the kids keep asking to go back...

Author's Tea

This is Jacob's Kindergarten teacher, Ms. Abraham. She has had all 3 of the older kids now and I think she's amazing. They have this little party called "Author's Tea" and the kids each get to read one of their pieces of work for the parents. It's a lot of fun to see the kids in the teachers chair and in charge. They are each very proud of their work. Jacob's of course was the best. :)

Cameron's Wolf Badge

This is Cameron getting his Wolf badge. He had to howl like a wolf on all fours with fake teeth in his mouth. He had a great time and he thought he was the coolest thing ever. It was pretty amazing that he got his wolf badge so early. His den leader was really proud of him, as we were also.

San Antonio Zoo

It's been a while since my last post but this was our trip to the zoo over spring break. We had a great time. It was pretty hot and crowded but it was worth it. The animals were fun and playful. We even got to see the lions playing in the water and the monkeys making faces at us.
