Merry Christmas and Looking Back at 2018

Every Christmas since we have been married, we send out Christmas cards to our friends and family members. This is part of our family Christmas tradition, and we love it! Back in 1990, when our oldest son Alex was born, we started sending out a yearly family newsletter with each card. Our family newsletter allows us share our lives - the challenges and the triumphs - with those who mean most to us. Here is this year's Jones Family Christmas card and newsletter:

 Our family Christmas Card this year.

The family Christmas letter we sent out with the card (phone number and email address blocked out for obvious reasons).
