Lauren's High School Graduation

It seems like only yesterday our precious Lauren was singing along to Barney and dressing her Barbies in matching pajamas! But it's true folks...Lauren isn't so little any more and on June 14th, 2010 she graduated from Westview High School!!!

The Sunday before graduation our Stake held Seminary graduation in which Lauren received her Certificate of Completion. Here's the choir singing at the High School graduation. Lauren is actually singing in this group...Where's Waldo?!?!

Doesn't she have such a great smile?!

Congratulations on NOT tripping on the stage Lauren!

YAY!!! You made it!!!

Our family was the only one with this AWE-SOME poster... it thoroughly embarrassed Lauren! That's what family is for...RIGHT?!?!

Nothing like a graduation kiss from big brother!

Lauren look GORGEOUS that night!

Congratulations Lauren! Your family loves you SOOOO much and we are all very proud of everything you've accomplished. You are such a talented young woman and we look forward to seeing all that your future hold for you!

REN ROCKS!!!!

Morgan's Dance Recital

Tara surprised Morgan & Lauren the weekend of Morgan's dance recital and Lauren's High School Graduation. Here are some pictures from Morgan's dance recital. Her class did a jazz dance to the song "I don't dance" from High School Musical 2.
These pictures are not suppose to exist..."No flash photography...blah, blah, blah.." But Tara couldn't help it...it was SO fun watching Morgan dance! Morgan is on the right side...see...?

Don't they look like sisters?!?!?!

"Okay Kirby, act natural..."

Mother & Daughter...

Good job Morgan! We are so proud of you!

It's a Girl!!!

Congratulations to Ashley & Steve...
They are expecting a baby GIRL October 2, 2010.
That also happens to be the favorite aunt's birthday too...eh hem...that would be Tara's birthday!
Baby girl Contreras will also be the first grandchild for our family!
Yea!!! Girls rule and boys droooool!!!
CONGRATULATIONS ASHLEY & STEVE!

Wedding Pictures Coming Soon!!!

Keri & Kyle are officially and eternally married! Stay tuned for photos of their special day!

Merry Christmas 2009!

Merry Christmas to all our family and friends. We hope you had a safe and happy time celebrating this special time of year. It is very important to our family to remember the "Reason for the Season" as well as sharing it with family and friends. Below is a picture taken by Tara of the Nativity at Temple Square in Salt Lake City.Every Christmas Eve our family has the tradition of opening one present: Christmas Pajamas!!!
This year we shared that tradition with Kyle Knight (Keri's fiance) and Nate's friend Valencia's kids.

Wait for it... wait for it...

YAY for new pajamas!!!!

Another tradition we have is sharing the Christmas story and acting it out. Morgan was Mary and Mathias was Joseph...

Here are the three old farts... I mean Three Wise Men... (who apparently like to "have it their way"...)

Christmas morning EVERYONE comes downstairs in age order. Lucky Steve got to participate this year!

Morgan got brand new Barbie clothes...or should I say her Barbies got a new wardrobe... I'm not sure what Lauren got but by the look on her face she was happy/excited/thrilled...

The newly weds and their first Christmas morning at the Jones' house...I ask, does it get any better than this? I submit that IT CANNOT!!!

Morgan and her new silky John Deer pajamas. Don't go looking for these at stores. They are custom designed by our family friend Kristy.

If you noticed Nate playing with the barbie doll instead of Tara with no make up on... I'm sure she'll appreciate it!

I made a new John Deer blanket/comforter for Kirby. It's so soft and warm. I think the kids used it several times before he got a chance to enjoy it...

Here are all the girls in their new Christmas pajamas. OF COURSE they HAVE to be matching/coordinated...

plus Nate...

Breakfast time! Unwrapping presents sure uses up a lot of strength...

Lauren and Nate enjoying breakfast... actually we wanted to get a picture of our favorite TV channel that comes on this time of year. It's called: "YULE LOG". It plays Christmas music and yule log scenes for about an hour and then repeats itself. Classic Jones family Christmas tradition.

Gustav's is a great German restaurant that is one of Kirby's favorite. We all went and enjoyed the sausage, pretzles, bread, fondue, schnitzle, bread pudding and other yummy foods.

We can't believe that Christmas has come and gone! Our thoughts are with all our family and friends and we wish you all a Happy New Year!!!
