Moving Forward

Life stinks sometimes

...the end...

***********

HAHA just kidding, I'm not leaving my thoughts to that!  :) But really sometimes life does stink.  Like when your hair poofs in the morning... Or when BYU looses to Utah... Or when the president isn't the guys you hoped/voted for.  But guess what.  It happened (actually all of those things happened to be exact...) and I'm moving forward.  I hope you can too.  I really appreciate all you lovely people who chose to read my Election Results post.  Somehow, hearing from so many people telling me that they read it, made me feel like my vote and my voice really was heard... Even if it was heard after the event.  

I am still working on getting politically educated.  I feel like I am totally lost in everything, so much garbage to sort through before we actually learn the facts, but that's okay :) making the effort to learn about the issues is important.  Anyway, I just wanted to make sure that I thanked everyone for giving me the chance to be heard.  It meant a lot to me. 

About the Jones Family:

I feel like I've left my family out of this jonesy blog a little too long, so here is some fun information about our upcoming life plans in chronological order (I hope).

Turkey friend

November 21: Brandon's sister is flying to Utah for Thanksgiving, and his parents are driving in.(And Steve?)  

Thanksgiving (22nd): 

-We are eating Dinner with my family (Johnson's) around 1pm

-Next we are eating pie and hanging out with my Smith's around 5pm

 -Hopefully we'll see our Jones's before bed around 7pm.

(Just so everyone knows, these were all tentative plans and are in no means written in stone... only in blog... which is totally changeable. I just wanted to write down how I see it going, so I can be corrected before the day if needed :) )

From the Festival of Trees

Another weekend that is exciting is the first weekend in December:

Friday: Festival of Trees at the Sandy Expo Center :) :) :)

Saturday: Michael McLean's Forgotten Christmas Carols

Basically that wasn't a lot of information, but it was a lot of stuff that I am so ridiculously excited about.  I absolutely love the holiday season and I am thrilled to be Christmas shopping at all :) even if it is really really small this year.  I just appreciate the season and the love that fills the air :)
