Happy Mother's Day!

Hannah's 6th Mother's Day!
Allie's 4th Mother's Day!

We had a wonderful Mother's Day, on Saturday. We celebrated Saturday because Travis had to work on Sunday. I slept the first part of the day after working Friday night. When I woke up, the house was clean and I had a present on the table (it was even wrapped, and not in the plastic bag from the store!).
The girls were very anxious for me to open it. And no wonder, it was an Ice Cream Maker. So after a trip to the store to retrieve the ingredients, we had delicious homemade ice cream. It was a great day.
On Sunday, it was just me and let me say I am so glad we had already celebrated Mother's Day. Sunday felt like Torture Mother Day! The girls both woke up a bit grumpy to say the least. After a very early bedtime for them and an exhausting day...
Which ended with a Boo Boo on Hannah's knee. You can only imagine the chain of events after the horrible Boo Boo she got, it turned out to be "the most painful Mother's Day ever" according to Hannah. I second that!
...I went to see Baby Mama with Christine and Tracey. It was really funny and we had a great time.
After, the wonderful weekend I am happy so say that I would rather have a bad day with my two angels then a good day without them.

Cheers to all the Mother's out there, past, present and future!

Family Update

Hi everyone! Well Travers got a really good job offer last week. Yeah!!!! His start date is May 19th to be a Millwright for Cianbro. We are both relieved and excited. Now the exciting job of finding a babysitter has begun. We will just need someone the days (or nights) that I work so I can sleep. Wish us luck!

First School Dance

A couple weeks ago, Hannah had a Hawaiin dance at school. She and Allie were a little tentative at first, but quickly warmed up with a little help from the cupcakes!

Hannah and her friend Hazel.

Sophia and Allie had to stop for some refreshments!

Just one of the reasons we love Maine

Merry Christmas from Maine

Yes, this really is the most recent photo I have of the four of us together. Atleast it's a good one! I will definitely work on photo ops for all of us in the near future. Getting pictures of the girls is not hard. Pictures with me in them are pretty scarce, considering I am usually behind the camera. Okay by me, I am not all that photogenic.

The Jones in Maine Blog

Hi everyone!
This is my first attempt at creating a blog for our family. Two of my good friends here use them to keep their friends and families updated. It will be a great way to share photos also.
Well, here's hoping that I am good blogger!!
