Dallin and Dalynn headed up the family party this year, and in true gracious form, Dean and Michele let the festivities take place at their fabulous home! Thanks everyone!!
All these Jones cousins are growing up WAY too fast. Here are the "Big Boys" of the pack. And the Little Girls just keep coming to us more sweet than the ones before! How we missed little Miss Mae and her parents at the party!
Dallin got the kids all outside to burn off some energy. Grand idea! Everyone enjoyed the adventures in the snow, even those of us watching from the windows!
Hilarious stuff! Who needs a hill or a horse when you have all these big, strong uncles to pull you around on flat ground!!
Dalynn was brave enough (or crazy enough) to attempt Minute-To-Win-It games with the group. For those who have never been with us all together, you this is a huge undertaking!! Everyone had a great time!
Each family was invited to create a team name with a flag or mascot. Everyone was pretty creative! (Everyone but us!! I couldn't quite pull it together before the party. I warned Logan and Ellie ahead of time that we didn't have a flag, so we didn't have any meltdowns over it!) Here are all the family teams with their flags. So creative and fun!!
Fun photos with the gals. We missed you Marilyn and Mel!!!
The party ended with this FABULOUS part favor!! I have been lamenting that things are so busy and complicated these days. I have mentioned to many over the past few weeks how I long for the simple days when we were kids, and we'd attend the annual ward Christmas party. All kids would leave with a paper sack from Santa, filled with peanuts, and orange, and a few pieces of candy. And we were THRILLED with this gift!! Looked forward to it all year. And...that's what Dallin and Dalynn surprised us each with, on our way out the door after the party. Love it!! LOVED IT!!
THANK YOU all for the great time! Merry Christmas Jones Family!!
