We were able to visit Aaron and Karen (Jacob's cousin and his wife) and their two daughters Mckenzie and Morgan. They were in Santa Barbara for the National Vaulting competition, which contrary to my understanding, has nothing to do with a pole and a thick blue mat. Vaulting is, as they informed us, gymnastics atop a horse! And according to Aaron, it was practiced by Roman soldiers back in the day, as a form of training. Mckenzie competed and got 6th and 9th out of 45 people (give or take a few, I can't remember exactly). She did a great job! Here she is standing.
And here's the crew, including Karen's sister, her children and Karen's mother. We had a great time up in Santa Barbara at the coliseum and were glad to spend the day with the Jones Family! We look forward to seeing you guys again soon!
