Tehya's Trip


Shelby had such a great time with his Tehya for Memorial Day Weekend, that he tried to hide in her luggage to go home with her!
We visited wineries, went for Shelby's first haircut, had fancy dinners, visited San Francisco (Golden Gate Bridge, Chinatown and Fisherman's Wharf), went shopping and just enjoyed hanging out! It was a great weekend for all. Now we're de-Tehya'ing a spoiled little Shelby. :-> She performed her grandmotherly duties exceptionally well!
THANK YOU for a great time, Tehya. Come back soon!

Shelby's First Haircut!



The Donald Trump comb-over is gone! Shelby looks like a stylish little gentleman.

Happy Birthday, Mommy


Happy Birthday to me,
I'm not yet thirty
One year left to go
Still 20-something and enjoying it so!
Stacy cooked an amazing dinner and made me a beautiful planter box for our back porch. Lots of lovely cards, wishes and gifts from everyone to make me feel special. LOVE YOU ALL!

Livermore Scottish Festival!

I spent Saturday night ensuring Shelby had proper kilt attire for the Scottish games today! Not only was he the cutest guy in a skirt there, he was also the bravest. He endured lots of manly pain on the big jumper. He may wear a skirt, but it's all "cajones" under that thing. This kid has NO FEAR! He ran and slammed into everything he knew would send him flying back into the aired up jumper. I was worn plum out, not to mention on the verge of having a nervous breakdown from watching my precious, fragile child take on the world. I would have tagged Daddy to step in, but most of the tunnels and obstacles were designed for a wee little lad. Not sure what that makes me.... However, we had a blast and loved the Klaidesdale horses. Yeah, I'm clueless on the spelling. Hope everyone had a jousting good weekend.

Oh My Gosh, I'm Bloggin'!

Okay, it almost sounds dirty, but apparently, BLOGGING is the thing to do. Between Jamie of the GG's and Camille in Singapore, I'm converted.
HOWEVER, here's the deal. I only agree to do this thing if it's not another task in life that I fail to keep up. It only contributes to me feeling less than balanced and successful. So, please note the following:
I, Christina A Jones, being of less than sound mind and of a lapse in judgement, do hereby agree to begin a Jones Family blog. I swear to make all efforts to post a weekly blog and include an updated pic of my little Shelbster. However, in the event that I cease to meet this expectation, you can all kiss my busy bottom. All complaints should promptly be directed to the following website: www.getoverit.com
