Here are the highlights from the Jones household lately.

A first sweet for Alexa -- a valentine sucker from her cousins in UT.

Several birthdays:
Dad's,

Mom's,and Alexa's.
A camp-out in which Zac was the cook for his patrol so he could earn his 1st class rank advancement.Spring break fun with relatives from Northern ID.Including a dog pile on Uncle Buck.
A trip to the Henry Dorling Zoo.
A trip to the science center.

A trip to the Gold Star Museum.

Enjoying some nice weather.
Last but not least, lots of different poses and expressions from the sweetest of the family.

January

We know we have gotten a little behind on posting lately. (Things never really slowed down much after Christmas like we expected.) Here are a few of the photos of what we have been up to while we were feeling well over the last six weeks or so.

Things inside:
Sculpey clay, foam pieces, & paper.

Art projects for school.Wii, wii, & more wii (Mario Kart is the definite favorite).

Things outside:
One nice day to try out the new goal.
Snow (although most of the time--too cold to enjoy).
Things all around:
She's a mover and a shaker--she is into tons of things and loves dancing to all music.

Late December

JIJ celebrated his 9th birthday.

He got some cash.

And some presents.

He even enjoyed a soccer party with his friends.

The boys got new pajamas on Christmas Eve and lots of other stuff the next day.

Alexa got her first doll for Christmas.

She enjoyed more fresh pears -- one of her favorites.

She learned to pull her self up and is getting much more venturesome.

Early December

A few joys of the Christmas season.


At least the weather was nice for a little bit.

Alexa was afraid of the tree. She was curious and even reached out, but never actually touched or took anything off. We probably won't be so lucky next year.

Pine Wood Derby 2008

We'd like to share the highlights from last year's Pine Wood Derby where Zac and Josh both participated. One of the boy's father shot and edited this 10 minute clip of highlights. Josh came in 3rd place. Congrats Josh!
