Hanging with the Jones Clan

Well, here we are, finally! We soon found and realized a few things. As you know our family, we boisterously make our arrival known wherever we go! :) As we walked over to the group of cousins, aunts and uncles, we felt... a little out of place. Now looking back I think they were probably wetting themselves as they saw Michael emerge from the vehicle. Ha! We figured it had been at least 8 or so years since we had seen most of these people, (not including our quick stop just before our missions) and everyone was speechless to seen Uncle Dean-o in the flesh! It was nice to chat it up with good family. Everyone has at least two offspring, none of which we had met before. Craziness!! We are kind of the in-between generation cause Papa Dean-o was a late starter in the kid department. All of our first cousins are married and have kids. Besides all that we had a fun time visiting and catching up with everyone. It was nice to see Dad interact with the fam and share in some good memories! Kinzee even got a ride on Big Al's motorcycle :)

Happy 85th Birthday Grandpa Jones!!
