Christmas 2008
The Jones Family had a wonderful Christmas. Grandpa & Grandma Mavy came for a quick Christmas Eve visit. Grandpa brought the kids all Christmas T-shirts. The boys all said "Dear Santa, Save time, skip my sister". Kaley's said "I don't want much for Christmas, just my own way". Kelsey's said, "Acting like I'm nice." The kids loved them and we thought they were very cute.
Thanks Grandpa!
Okay, now check out these pictures. Fred really knows how to please a woman. These are just the best stocking stuffers. I think he meant to stuff his stocking. That's what I'm going with anyway. :) At least he tried. He gets all the points for trying.
Okay, is Kaley laughing at me or does she think her new earrings are really that bad. Boy, Santa, you must need a lesson in what a teenager wants.
Santa was a very brave man this year! The kids all got silly string in their stocking. These three were the only ones to get in the mix. Trevor wanted to "save" his, of course. Kaley wasn't about to get "messed-up" (she says she didn't want to get her new shirt stained). We'll let her go with that. Santa forgot to bring some for mom and dad to play too. Next time he better not forget!
Here are Logan and Trevor enjoying each other and just hanging out. They are so cute. I don't think Trevor took his hat off all day.
Then there is Kaley hanging out with Daddy and Logan. Logan sure likes snuggle lately.
Fred actually got a few minutes to himself. What does he do, have some dessert of course. He doesn't have to share it with any kids.
Justin's favorite past-time . . . EATING! His eyes say it all.

After we had our little family Christmas, we headed over to the Mavy's for a very large Christmas. Our service project this year sent us indoors. We went caroling at a convalescent hospital, all 37 of us. It was a change, but it really touched us all. It brought tears to my eyes to see the joy it brought to these patients on Christmas Day. The kids had fun singing and handing out jingle bells to the patients, also. One man was so touched. He said to me, "A little girl gave me this. Can I keep it?" It was a wonderful experience that I'm sure will be repeated.
The girls got to share their musical talent. They played together, accompanied by me on the piano.

The whole Jones family sang together for their other act in the program.

We enjoyed our Christmas and hope you did too. Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!

Fun Christmas! :)
At least Fred remembered your stocking. Mine was the only empty one on Christmas morning. Granted, I think Ben was more upset about forgetting it than anybody else. Guys.
I agree, this service project was the best yet.
Mine has been the only empty one for years. He actually snuck it in on me this year. He took the boys one day while the girls and I were at the arena. I couldn't believe it.
