Zac and Chelsea

Well, I guess this is just an update on us from what mom wrote. Zac and I are doing well, and enjoying the married life. I think we often wish that we could have some time off from school so that we could spend more time together, but hopefully that time will come soon enough. I am almost done with Nursing school, at least my Associate degree, and will be an RN in January, hopefully. School is stressful, and clinicals are a nightmare, but it is great to know that I am really accomplishing something with my education. Zac is in his last year of Accounting school and sadly, just about as stressed as I am with school, so needless to say we keep busy. He recently got a job helping this Entrepreneur in the community who owns a bunch of businesses and is an accountant himself. But he is getting old and going blind so Zac spends his Tuedays and Thursdays helping run the books and things for the various companies. He probably doesn't make as much as he would like but it is a great experience for him. He will do his internship this winter in Idaho Falls and then will graduate by next December. Who knows where we are going after that. He has started to look into a few schools but we are not sure yet where he will do his MBA or CPA whichever he decides. We are enjoying our time together, and are excited for what life brings ahead. We send our love to you all.

Here are a few picture from our Honeymoon. We went on a cruise to Cabo san Lucas Mexico, it was tons of fun just to be together, I didn't enjoy the sea sickness too much, but Zac loved the ocean and everything about it.

Reception

Chelsea's Wedding

Well its been a month since Chelsea's wedding and I thought it was time i updated our blog. I have been very busy the last few months getting ready for the wedding, and then I was involved with some time consuming Relief Society activities - Super Saturday type thing. I have also been working at school. We have a break for two weeks; so we are trying to get thing caught up.

Chelsea and Zac's wedding was wonderful. The first day seemed like the perfect wedding. No problems everyone where they were suppose to be on time and so forth. No problems at the temple - everything was smooth as smooth can be. She looked beautiful and radiant. We all made it to the reception in Idaho without any problems. It was a quiet, but very nice reception. We left early the next day to head to Ely for the 2nd reception. (I was wondering how I was going to make it look decent in a few hours and detract from the elk heads on the wall at the Elks Lodge - all the churches were booked) We received a call from Chelsea earlier than expected saying they were on their way to Ely and she was pretty sick. She threw up all the way down and felt she needed to go to the emergency room. Ken left to meet her and Zac and we continued on with our preparations, wondering if we should cancel or what? The emergency room took a long time and she came out with nothing. They said she had a virus and there was nothing they could do for her.

The reception went forward. Chelsea did the best she could and was a real trooper. It was a great reception and everyone enjoyed it. (It's too bad the bride and groom couldn't enjoy it a little more.)

Chelsea and Zac stayed in Ely a few days to recooperate and then headed to California to go on their honeymoon cruise. She was still a little under the weather, but doing better. Some of us got a little sick after the wedding, but nothing like Chelsea.

All is well now the newlyweds are in school and doing well.

Here's a few of our favorite pictures.

Enjoy!

Jones Family Summer Update

JONES - The summer has flown by. We didn't really have much time out of school as the kids got out the end of May and were back in the middle of July. During that time Alex and Trevor went to EFY Provo, Trevor had football camp, and Trevor, Spencer and Ken had Scout camp. It seemed we were on the run all of June. Chelsea got engaged in June as well so we spent the rest of the time preparing for a wedding in August. We have been very busy with wedding plans and school. Monday, August 18 Chelsea and I leave for Ely to prepare for the wedding next Friday. We are all busy and happy. We will update after the wedding. Also Alex starts New Student Orientation at BYU the Wednesday following the wedding. Wedding pictures soon to come!

BENNETTS - Richie turned 2 on August 2nd and we celebrated with swimming and cake and presents. He wasn't too sure about blowing out candles, but did a great job of it a week later on Alex's birthday.

PAYS - Melanie and Nick are busy preparing for a move to Caliente, NV. About 90 minutes from Ely. Nick will be working for Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and working on his degree as well. They are all busy and the boys are growing big.

MORINS - The Morins spent some of the summer in Colorado - James selling security systems and April teaching dance at a studio. They are now back in Rexburg preparing for their last semester.
