We saw “IBM Father Christmas” yesterday. Yes, that’s his name. He brings presents to all of the boys and girls of IBM parents, then he goes off to help the normal Father Christmas, apparently. He also provides a magic show, disco, face painter and card making station. He’s pretty amazing.
I had no idea that we were going to be enjoying our first Backyard BBQ of the year this weekend – but when I woke up on Saturday, Gav casually mentioned that he’d already invited his parents over for just that – that afternoon. After the fastest get-your-clothes-on-and-get-out-of-the-house-and-into-the-car performance in recent history [second only to the…
![NINE [FANTASTIC] NON-CHOCOLATE ADVENT CALENDARS 2017](https://keep-up-with-the-jones-family.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/ninenonchocolate46.jpg)

Jensen has chosen his own costume that I’ve *cough* made (along with a matching one for his huge rubber rat and small collared versions for the…
Another new tradition that we began this year was the “Santa’s Sleigh Scavenger Hunt”. I saw this idea on another amazing Momma’s blog and I loved it, particularly as our Little Adventurer now loves hunting for things (unless it’s something that I have asked him to look for, like his cup or a sock). Basically…
It’s that time of year again when the Hallowe’en loving Jones Family realise that we have again let time run away with us, we have no costumes for Hallowe’en, and the big day is just over a week away. In that time we need to fit in a visit to the pumpkin patch in the…
