We are so glad that you are visiting our blog. It is here that you can learn all about This Jones Family and all that we do

This Jones family began in 1997 when Greg and I started as friends over a Christmas break. That friendship soon turned to a relationship and as time passed by, we kept growing together, not really knowing that we were building our future together. Three years after we started dating, we made our first commitment to create a family together and promised forever to eachother. Taylor was born in 2000 and two years later he became a big brother to twin girls Kaylie and Alyssa. We're a small little family that loves to spend all of our time together. This is how our story began, please check back frequently to see how our family continues.

Extended Family

There’s something comforting about having a chance to be around your extended family.  Today we said goodbye to one of my Papa’s brothers and although it was sad to watch all of the family say goodbye, it was also nice to see so many relatives come together.  There were nine children in that family, more grandchildren and great grandchildren than anyone can count.  It was fun to watch my mom and uncle visit with their aunts, uncles and cousins.  We also made a quick visit to the grave of my great grandparents and I was reminded how lucky I was to have been able to know them and be around them before they passed away.
