An American Girl Adventure with Baylie and Claire

While Jill and Claire were here visiting from Illinois, we went on a "girls day out." We went to Dallas to the American Girl Store with dolls in tow. Baylie and Claire's dolls both visited the hair salon and got new hair-dos. In the 1st photo Baylie's doll is receiving a "massage" (it was really getting her head tightened and the stuffing put back into her neck! She's had it awhile)

After shopping and visiting the hair salon we headed to the AG cafe for a bite to eat. We had a 3 course dinner, and of course Baylie ordered dessert! It was very good.

At the end of the day, we went to see the American Girl movie, Kit Kettridge. It was cute. We all had a great day! Can't wait to do it again soon!

Our 4th of July!

Wow, what a party. We had Nate, Jill, Dalon and Claire Jeppesen come from Elburn Il., Sean Sr. and Sean Jr. Jeppesen come from Georgia, David, Paula, Megan, and Drew Teague from Layton, Utah. Kevin, Amy, Aubrey, and Jack Heglund from Keller, TX. Londa Jeppesen from Aurora Il. And of course us 5. We swam, cooked-out, went fishing, raced remote controlled boats, (Christian was the 1st place champ winning the pot!) went hot air ballooning, rode ponies, got tattooed, ran races, got faces painted, ate lots of good food, watched an awesome display of fireworks and best of all spent time with our extended family...all the while, all 20 of us wore matching shirts!! (thanks Uncle Nate) I will add photos on soon of our matching shirts.

Fishing 4th of July

COUSINS AT THE FISHING HOLE! On July 4th, all 20 of us went fishing! We all had matching shirts that Uncle Nate designed for everyone online. It was easy to keep track of everyone that way...as you can see from some of the photos, it looked like we dominated the entire area where ever we went! It was awesome!

DISNEY THEME PARKS June 2008

Our hotel in Orlando. It was the perfect set up, with a great location! We are getting ready to test out the pools. (they were great)

We did a LOT of walking.
We rode a Popeye ride... "I'll gladly pay tomorrow for a hamburger today" (Is that how it goes?)
Ben & Nolan bungee jumping.
The kids thought it was so fun to just have a rental car!!

Tower of Terror!! This was one of our favorite rides that we could all ride together. This is a before and during shot. (We are in the front row)

SeaWorld Orlando June 2008

DOLPHINS

ROLLER COASTERS

The Shamu Whale show was amazing. The kids were disappointed sitting in the "super soaker zone" that they did not get SOAKED by Shamu!

Feeding the stingray and dolphins were Baylie and Ben's favorite part of the trip.

Our family at SeaWorld in Orlando. This was our kids favorite park in Orlando. We fed dolphins & stingray, watched amazing shows, and rode roller coasters. We visited this park 2 days.
