Here’s a quick video I slapped together from the BSU vs. Georgia game last night!

A few days ago a group (Alan Watkins, Charles Paulin, Chad Forrey, and myself) of us hit the Main Payette at Banks. Here’s a quick video showing some of the fun!

Here’s a video of a fun time our family had at Roaring Springs last week. It was so fun to have everyone up here – it’s been a really long time since we had the whole group together. I blame Ben for that mostly…selfish college student traveling across the country for some stupid Fellowship…grumble grumble…
Anyway, thanks go out to everyone for helping this reunion turn out to be a great time.

This was one crazy trip, and everyone who experienced it will never forget it. Check out the highlight video of all the fun parts. The scary parts…well, they’re on a different video!

Another fantastic Halloween has come! Aria dressed as a lovely Bumblebee, and Ryder was a Teddy Bear. Or a Grizzly Bear, depending on the time of day. We had a great time this year decorating the house. We had strobe lights on the roof, fire cauldrons all over, three fog machines pumping, carved pumpkins littered about, and some fantastic creepy classical music blasting to the neighborhood. We had more guests than last year; after handing out 200 candy bars we had to start turning people away late in the evening.
Here’s a quick video of how it turned out (note that this is a relatively large video file – it’s only a minute long but the resolution is higher than my other videos. If anyone out there has trouble viewing this, let me know please!) :

Ryder has learned to speak! Granted, it’s just one word, and he uses it as a noun, adjective, verb, even as entire sentences at times. Here’s a video for Grandma and Grandpa Jeppsen who are far away in Brazil!

This past week Suz and I flew out to New York for 5 days! What an amazing vacation…check out the video for a quick rundown on the events.

Gentrey stayed with us this past week, much to Aria’s delight! They had so much fun – and we tried to capture as much of it as we could. Here are some videos showing a tiny synopsis of the fun they had.

Here’s a classic for the family members who missed it – Mom, Dad, and Ben on a serious jam rocking out the Stars And Stripes Forever.  Brings a tear to the eye.  But alas – the careful (and dry) eye will notice the lightning fast hands of one Karen Jeppsen as she lashes out to turn the pages without missing a beat.  And not to be missed is the Rachmaninoffistic skills of Bryce Jeppsen as he shoulders  his part single handed at 3:21 while casually scratching his head with the other.  And certainly not to be forgotten is Ben Jeppsen behind the scenes holding up the serious as a heart attack percussion beat like Atlas shouldering Earth.  Yes, the air was especially patriotic that night…

A big chunk of this past Saturday was spent contructing a new fire pit!
