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.

Ida Mae Jones-A Legacy

Greg's grandmother Ida Mae passed away quickly and unexpectedly on October 25th just days away from celebrating her 9oth birthday. Greg was scheduled to be coming home a week later for her birthday celebration but with the news was able to get back to Colorado to be home with his family.  All of us have such fond memories of this incredible woman and we are so thankful that are kids are old enough to remember the times that they shared with her as well.

Here's a slideshow I put together of some of our times with her:



These are the great granddaughters with a photo of their great grandmother

The kids were each given an angel coin by one of Ida Mae's long time friends

At the cemetery the family took roses to the grave of Greg's aunt Cece who passed away years ago after a battle with cancer
