Jones Christmas

The 2nd weekend of this month we had the Jones family Chirstmas Party. We all got together and stayed at Mike and Trina's. We had a great time! The first day we just hung out and played all day long! In the evening we got to go to Dale and Melinda's ward Christmas Party. It was great fun and we had lots of good food! Cahlin got to go on stage and sing with the Primary for his very first time. He was pretty scared at first then he found Caloway and held his hand and was happy. He decided to follow the primary singing leader and he was singing the words with a lot of facial expressions. It was so cute to see him up there. I can't wait for him to be a Sunbeam. He is very excited too! Almost everyday he reminds me that he is almost a Sunbeam!
On Saturday we had a very eventful day! We first did our Christmas Project. In Kevin's family the adults don't give each other a present instead we put the money that we would have spent on presents into a bank account. And then one family decides what the project to do is. This year was Alan and Lynette's turn. We made fleece blankets for a Shelter in Idaho Falls. It was alot of fun to do with the kids. Plus, it's really great to be able to help the community and to teach our kids to serve and help others. Especially at Christmas time.Kevin and our little Niece Becca. She did a great job tying! She did almost one whole side! She is such a sweet little girl! And... Kevin did a pretty good job tying too!:) Kevin's dad tying his teams blanket.Cahlin did a very noble job of helping. Although he doesn't know how to tie yet he tried and he sat with us the whole time trying to do it! I love him!!
