Jameson Zoo

I often refer to my family as the Jameson zoo. When we were younger once my goofy older bro answered the phone and instead of saying hello like normal he said "Jameson zoo which monkey would you like to talk to." After that it kinda stuck. It also describes the way it is when we're together. We are big & loud & it's definitely crazy when we're all together. I have 5 siblings who are all married and have children. In total there are 35 of us and I very much doubt that will be our final count. One of the first things we did when my parents came home from their mission was take family pictures. Here are a few. Grammy & Papa w/the grand kidsSince many of you know my family I thought I'd include the individual family pics too (in birth order).

Here's Jennifer & Marvin and their 6 children (age order) Rachael, Sydney, Michael, Nicole, Riley & DylanRyan & Linsey & their 5 children Ethan, Tyler, Calvin, Sunny & FinnEmily & Eric and their 4 children Chandler, Shelby, Harley, & TatumMy FamilyStacy & Derek and their boys Isaac & TrevorMy youngest brother (Scott) & his family (Jenna & little Eva) didn't take a family picture because they understandably wanted to wait until they could take one with this sweet little boy, Everett, who joined us as grandchild #21 a week or so later.

Here are my parents w/all their children. Both those born into & married into the fam.

We feel grateful to say that our family really are our best friends. I'm grateful for each person both born into my family & those who married in. I love that we have so much fun together & all get along. There's nobody we'd rather vacation with, have dinner with or just plain hang with. Here's a little bit of silly.We sure love our family!
