The Jeppsens came to visit!


3 weeks ago my sister and her family came to visit. WAHOO!!! We don't get to see them and their cute kids enough. Now they are back in the snow.

We did a lot while they were here. Unfortunately, this was one of their longest visits and Coby got to see them less than he ever has. He has been so busy with school, work, tests, studying, scouts... Also unfortunately every time I went over there the first thing all 3 kids would ask, "where's Coby?" "why's Coby at school?" "Is Coby on his way?" "When is Coby getting here?" Apparently Coby will always be more goofy and fun than the rest of us. Oh well, I agree.

Here are just a few of the things we did while they were here:

Rockin' R Ranch. I haven't been since I was a kid, but my sister's friend from high school works there so we went to catch up and see the show. His whole family runs the place, but he is the drummer in the show.


Looking for gold.

Little Miss Peyton was a pro on the little lassos. She had those things going good! Then Perry decided to give it a try.

My dad was a pro at the big lasso. Who knew?! He roped that hay bull every time.




When we checked in, the lady asked Heather for a name of someone who would do the mini lassos on stage. Well the go to person to volunteer is Coby and he wasn't there. So Jeff was next on the list although Heather never told him until his name was called. Pretty funny.


We had a lemonade stand! My mom still had people telling her to let them know when we were having another Lemonade stand since it was so tasty last time. My sister makes some delicious fresh squeezed lemons straight from my parent's tree.

Perry found her best play house in the dogs kennel. She didn't want to come out. (easy to please)


I came over one day and the kids wanted to show me the fairy house they made with Grandma. They used everything from Grandma's yard and made this cute little house. Fun right?!

Here is the fairy in her little skirt and hat.
Her house had a little bark chair and bark table. Cute and creative! That would be my mom.
