Jeppsens Come to Romania!

We love it when our children have come to see us. Some have brought babies that we wouldn't otherwise see for three years. In June, our daughter, Kirsti, her husband, Paul, and their three children came to see us for 9 days. It was great to see them again. Thanks, Jeppsens! The Jeppsens joined us in whatever mission work needed doing. We drove to Constanta one day where President Lundberg interviewed the missionaries. We attended church there the next day. This was lunch at the local McDonald's.

It was so fun to be waiting at the airport when the doors slid opened and out walked this great family. It was so fun to see them again.

These four men did not come with the Jeppsens, but we saw them that first morning in Constanta, sitting there together. It is a great Romanian photo! I love their hats.

This was our first time to meet Annika Joy Jeppsen. She arrived in Romania on her first birthday.

Annika, meet Grandma!

During interviews, the kids went out back of the vila with one of the members there. These was a lot of "stuff" there and the kids had a great time creating.

We waited until most of the crowds had left and we went down and the kids were able to play in the Black Sea while President Lundberg answered emails in the hotel.

Marlee was mostly excited about coming to Romania because the park near our home had bungee jumping

Barrett was a pro at it, also.

Annie was content to do the swings.

Parks are sure fun in Romania!

We made a day trip to Castle Peleş. Grandpa Scott stayed outside with Annika.

There was fun at every turn. Joshua enjoyed having kids around for a change.

We've never been in a telephone booth in America!

Or seen horses and wagons on the sidewalk.

We visited a fun sight on the way home.

We attended the Mormone Spectacol, and saw some great talent performed by the Bucharest District.

The days went by too quickly! It was great to have you here, Jeppsens.
