The Jones Family: July 2009

Logan's New Haircut

My mom took Logan to get his haircut today and Logan was SO proud of it....he wanted them to spike it up and when he saw me he ran over to me and said "Look Mommy, my hair is spicy and sharp"...I love this kid.
Here is he showing off his cool new haircut

Happy 3rd Birthday Austin

Saturday we went to Austin's birthday party at Pump it Up...the kids had fun as always and enjoyed seeing all their friends.

Lock In

Friday night when I got back we had a Lock in with the youth at our house. I don't usually make it past 10 on a normal night and somehow managed to stay up til 3:30/4:00 am. We had fun playing lots of games and I had fun spending time with my girls!

Corpus Christi

We went to Corpus this past week...It started out as I was going to tag along with Kristi because she had to go pick up Nathan and as a perk I was going to get to hang out with Emily. Well it ended up that Daryl and Kyle both wanted to come and then my mom also decided to come. So we ended up with 2 cars. I stayed with Emily the whole time while everyone else stayed at the hotel.
Thursday morning Emily wanted me to go to stroller strides with her...the girls had fun in the stroller together and we got a nice little workout (after eating our yummy kolaches - they have the best bakery there).

After Stroller strides we met up with my aunt, mom, and the boys at the Texas State Aquarium. This was both of my kids first time at an aquarium. They had so much fun.

Here is Logan checking out some gigantic sting rays.

Aww....we found Nemo...and Dori was also in there...this made my kids day.

This was the cutest dolphin I have ever seen. He loved to play ball. He would throw the ball and it would come back to him over and over...kind of looked as if he was dribbling the ball. This kept the kids attention for a while.

This is what we called...double trouble...

Ella and Logan have fun together...we just never know what they are going to be up to next :)

Here they got to touch the sting rays...they were really more interested in just playing in the water though.

I got to see Trents new ride while I was there...

We went and got cleaned up and grabbed Trent and then went and met up with my aunt, cousins and mom again for dinner. Is Ella not the cutest little thing...and you can't see in this picture but she has ringlets in her hair and it is just beautiful.

Ella is going to be a big sister real soon. Here is Emily at a little over 34 weeks I think. I can't wait to meet baby Cole the next time we see them!

Main Event

Tonight we took the youth to Main Event and as much as Logan loves this place he got to tag along. He played quite a few games of bowling and did pretty well. He did not want to use the bumpers. He must have gotten all his practice from playing wii :).

Logan and his main girl...His Momma.

Goodbyes

Today was our last day with the twins before they head back to Key West. My kiddos sure are going to miss their little cousins. They do not quite understand why the next time we go to Granpa and Grammys the boys won't be there. They have had so much fun with them. I am sad they don't live closer for us to see them more often. Hopefully it won't be another year before we see them again.

It's Party Time

Saturday was a busy day for us. We met my mom for breakfast and then from there headed over to Grampa and Grammys...Since the twins were down and Greg is going to be turning "60" in August we went ahead and celebrated his birthday a little early. Here is Addie waiting for her some cake.

....and now she is happy....it was such a yummy cake too...cookies and cream

Playing with Twin #1 and Twin #2

Afterwards we headed over to Ava's 4th Birthday Party...Happy Birthday Ava....

Addie found her a nice little spot on the couch at Ava's party and curled her little self up to rest.

It was a garden/butterfly party and so here are Noah and Logan with their butterfly nets

Ice Cream and Cheese

Tonight we had ice cream at Culvers with the twins...Of course the pictures are backwards...here are Conner and Addie saying goodbye after their playtime
