Jones Family Reunion

Disney World-Animal Kingdom
We had a very long day at Animal Kingdom. It was so much fun. JD loved all the animals and fun things to do. We watched a Lion King and Nemo show which both were excellent. JD danced to the music to the Lion King and then when we left the Nemo show he was crying MINE! Because he didn't want to leave. It was his nap time and we were so glad that he went to sleep finally!

Tarpon Springs
Saturday we decided that we would go to Tarpon Springs Aquarium. I had a coupon for it so it was really cheap to go see alligators, sharks, snakes, fish and little octopuses. There was a big fish that looked like a rock but was called a jewfish (which later got renamed Goliath Grouper). It is the top right piture if you can see it. JD was so cute. We could pet the crabs, turtles and puffer fish but he was a little hesitant since he thought the crabs were mean! We didn't realize the HUGE Greek influence in Tarpon Springs. It was some food fest when we visited so there was live music great food and tons of people. Tarpon Springs is the Sponge Capital of the World. So there were lots of sponges for sale as well as Greek food. I guess in the early 1900's experienced Greek divers (500+) came over to harvest the sponges so there were Greek restaurants everywhere. Very fun and relaxing. We love exploring Florida!

De Soto National Memorial
We really enjoyed the De Soto National Memorial yesterday. I do think that it was a little odd that it was glorifying the Spaniards coming over and killing thousands of Native Americans. This picture has the Native Americans in chains carrying things.
JD loves to wear Daddy's hat. Everywhere we heard animals. We saw crabs, a rabbit, lizards, fish and birds.
JD was excited to be on this bridge. We could look over and see hundreds of tiny fish swimming.
It is still weird to be in this climate. It was humid but the breeze made it tolerable. The path we are walking on was shells that were crushed.

JD kept saying the flowers were purple. He loves being outdoors and just wanted to jump into the bay. He now is repeating everything we say. He loves to hide and say "Are you?". The other day we were at Megan's and I was still inside talking so Daddy sent him to get me. JD knocked on the door and when I went outside he said, "Um on Mama, go byebye!". He is just so smart and growing up so fast.

Jones Family Pictures
We forgot to have Jeremy take his sunglasses off and I love that I have a double chin.
It has been since Jeremy was leaving for his mission that all the siblings were in a picture. (About 11 years, I think).
I love this fun picture!
I love that Stefanie is the only one behind her husband. (She is 6' tall).
