eventfulness

*first things first:* after much thought and discussion, it has been decided that this little corner of the web should be private. I fought it for a long time, but I have come up with a compromise that makes me, my husband, and hopefully the few people who read this blog happy. :)
I want two things: 1. to keep a history of our little family.
2. to have an outlet for my dabbling in photography.
Those two things don't meld very well, because I want to keep personal stuff personal, and artsy stuff artsy. So, I have created a blog for my photos. For those of you interested in keepin' up with the Joneses, please leave your email address or send it to me at libbijones at gmail dot com so I can send you an invitation. If you're interested in my experiment with photography (though you may be few, maybe there are a couple out there), check out my photo blog at photosbetweenthelines.blogspot.com. I hope you'll comment, and enjoy my novice attempts. So there you have it. Now on to other happenings.

eventful=high levels of activity.
There has been much eventfulness around this house. I couldn't choose just one picture for each day, so prepare to be bombarded.

March 10th

Mack's adventure into the undiscovered territory of rice cereal. He was a little scared. Don't worry, he survived it.

March 11th

Feeding the birds at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia.
*photo of cute little Hudson.*


Observing the bird feeding from a nice comfy stroller.
*photo of Hudson's little brother, Tate.*


And a quick family picture with the birds. Thank you, birds.

March12th

My model friend, Tanis. Pretty girl=pretty picture. (Tanis would want me to tell you that I forced her to take the picture... and I did. :) ).

March 13th

Hershey, PA. Happy little guys, aren't they?


Choclate world: A chocolate lover's paradise. Mmmmm... look at all that yumminess.

March 14th



A little piece of history.


How Mack feels about that history.

March 15th

Independence Hall

March 16th
A little Jones Love for you...




March 17th

And, in honor of St. Patty's day, check out my own little leprechaun in his green leprechaun jacket (okay, it's a stretch... I know).

Much eventfulness, and a few changes. I hope you'll join us as we move to a private blog, and if not, I hope you'll follow my adventures over at {between the lines}.

Love it all. Thanks for a whirlwind yet fabulous weekend. Of course I want an invite. And thank you for the shout out on my photo- it would have been better had you been standing there. And of course I love the photos of my boys....thanks to those birds, I still have love in my heart. One thing I learned about this weekend: Don't take a two year old on a 50 year old's trip.....history means nothing to him. Love ya.

Well, you are probably doing the smart thing by going private. I know I should too, for my own sanity, one of these days. So give me an invite to the private blog, melaniespitcher@yahoo. I'll be following both, don't you worry. The whole anonymous photo blog will be cool, very mysterious, people will wonder who the talented photographer behind it all is!

Amy F said...

So exclusive! Count us in!

Cute pictures. Rice cereal, huh? It's a new world for Mr. Mack.

And I love his St. Patrick's Day jacket. Green is green. Michael was kind enough to count a green stripe on Ella's shirt, which saved her from the grips of his pinchers.
