Hello! Welcome to Keeping Up with the Joneses. Thanks for stopping by! We're a young couple living in the East Arkansas/Memphis area otherwise known as The Delta, with a love for family, friends, faith and food.

We believe that some of the best memories are created at home around the dinner table, and when entertaining those you love. This little blog is where I share recipes, wine, our home and our life. Enjoy! -Kendall

What You'll Find:

I love to try new recipes. In fact, I rarely make the same thing twice. I'm a bona-fide cookbook collector, Pinterest addict and magazine aficionado. On the blog, you'll see what I've got cooking.

I love wine, y'all, so from time to time I feature bottles I've loved. Crafts and decorating our little house are passions of mine, so you may see some of that. Thanks for stopping by!

He Passed!

Congrats! Hooray! Yippee!! We are excited at the Jones home right now.

Keith got his letter yesterday to say the HE PASSED his National Boards. Wooohooo!!!
He's 1/2 a dentist! :)
This is huge.

He's had tons of pressure on him for the past 5 weeks and now he is totally relieved! I'm very, very, very proud of my smart hubby. Way to go, Keith! All the hard work paid off, as I knew it would.

So, last night a big group of D2s went out to celebrate their passing victories. It was a last minute plan, and Keith said "let's go....now!" as soon as I walked in the door from step aerobics. Whew, I got ready fast! I put my nasty, sweaty hair in a ponytail and said "ahhh, fuhhhget about it!" Let's celebrate!

Then, I realized it was 11:00 and I would be expiring soon. So, we headed to bed. But, it was a fun night and I loved seeing happy, proud, excited soon-to-be dentists out celebrating their accomplishments! Way to go guys and gals!
