Wedding weekend

2008-05-11T20:03:00.000-07:00

Loved having E and J here for Laura's wedding. The wedding was fabulous. Carley and Cole are married now as well! Congrats to both! Kylie and Bobby sat with us at Carley's wedding..guess they are next..well after Molly P. Steve Couvillion gets married soon too and Josh Abraham....whew! Adam and Ben celebrated their 26th big birthday here tonight. The local families and a few neighbors were here...good party! Abi and Adam head for Oregon and a new job in June....unbelievable, but wonderful for them. We had 10 or 11 graduates recognized at church this am...can't believe they are almost out of high school. Time REALLY does fly. More later.....

2008-02-18T20:48:00.001-08:00

Gee, long time no blog! I was replying to Elizabeth about all the snow they are having.....brrrrr. It was almost 60 here today.
Very nice too! Thank goodness E. and J. will be here for a weekend in April for Laura's wedding! Come on April!

2007-10-01T20:12:00.001-07:00

Cooler weather! Barkleigh, Gabby and I are happy about the cooler weather...more good walk time! Shea and Elizabeth and Jon are cruising Pittsburgh and studying of course ( well E. and J. are) Shea has a break! Happy Fall to all!

Fall thoughts...

2007-09-17T22:38:00.000-07:00

it is finally hinting that fall may be here soon as the weather is cooling down some. WHEW 100 and 105 degrees doesn't agree with the walks that Barkleigh and Gabby and I take. Football weather at last...State is revived I do believe! We will watch from the sky box this week. Maybe I should just sit on the couch up there and not watch..we won last week and I didn't watch! The Shane and Shane concert was good last night..I enjoyed Bebo and Monk and Negle SP? too though! Got pics with Shane and Shane..wooooo! It was very inspirational. Those guys do a wonderful thing combining their quality singing talents with their testimony for Christ and His work. Very admirable indeed. Shea will be heading for the 'burg' to see Jon and Elizabeth for fall break! Lucky dawg! I am happy he can make it! Go DAWGS!

2007-09-07T13:58:00.000-07:00

hey hey!

Time marches on! E and J and back in the burg and settled into class and work! They had a beautiful trip to the mtns of WV last weekend. Ben Adam and Abi are very busy as well. That's a good thing I suppose! All the doggies are well and Barkleigh thinks she is Gabby's momma..oh well!

Later

2007-08-27T19:50:00.000-07:00

Well..the visit with Elizabeth and Jon was GRRREAT! Of course I miss them already..what else is new?! Ben and Adam and Abi got to spend time with all of us too! Now back to reality! Maybe Christmas will come quickly! So glad Abi, Adam and Ben are still nearby! We did watch the Steelers game on TV last night, however! They beat Philly!

2007-08-18T11:51:00.000-07:00

New computer...

I have a new computer that I am adjusting to...thus the mispelled and left out letters on my last blog! OOPS!

2007-08-18T11:44:00.000-07:00

WOW! I really love having "all my children" in town for a few weeks! We are so blessed for all of them to b doing well! Reality will set in next week when E. and J. return to Pittsburgh. They are loving it, an I am glad. Abi and Ada FINALLY retuned from the honeymoon of al time! So glad they are back too! Ben is finally getting the apartment straight after the last roommate moved..whew what a mess! Looks good now though.

We start Intermission this week! I am ready to see everyone again!

Hey hey friends and family and the one person who is reading this...maybe Heather! It is fun to do regardless!
Today is a wedding planning day...must order the flowers for the rehearsal dinner, and get pics on a disc for the surprise video to be playing at the rehearsal dinner of Abi and Adam when they were kiddies...hee. Her mom wants it and I am very happy they are having it, of course! I LOVE looking back at pics of my kids...good times, wonderful times, the best time of my life actually! Wish I could do it again...well, if I was a little younger maybe! Hope everyone is having a great week.

I saw a LOT of Elizabeth's and Jon's 'ol buds at a party at the Lyons last night.....Evan, Thomas, Max, Kyle, Sean, Kevin..they ALL send their best to E. and J. Ben attended church with us, and Abi and Adam came over to eat...very nice day...ah, and Elizabeth called! HAPPY FATHERS DAY TO ALL THE DAD'S!

Hey hey!

Today was another hot day in Mississippi..around 95..no rain in sight either.

I heard from an employee where Ben ( one of Elizabeth's twin brothers ) works that Ben has stated to her that he misses his "little" sister. They DO love one another! hee....Adam is pretty crazy about her as well! Of course she is PRETTY fond of them too. They are good "kids"! We are very blessed.

We will go to the coast next weekend to a Veterinary meeting of Robert's...do get to stay at the Beau Rivage though, not too shabby!

Love to all,

Mama Cooper

Hi everyone,

"Everyone" seems to be Heather so far, ha. Glad to hear from her though! The biggest news around Starkville is OMAHA of course! We are to play sometime on Friday, so I hear. Guess Ole Miss ISN'T going to OMAHA..ahhhh well. We need rain here too..dry as a bone. Adam's wedding is approaching very quickly too... July 21st! That should be a very nice weekend, with ALL the family together...the kind I like! Elizabeth and Jon are very busy, but seem to be very happy. Pittsburgh "fits" them well for now, I believe. Ben is looking for a second job to meet all his "wants"! He loves his apartment in the cotton district. Our garden produced fresh veggies for our dinner, so I will close and go cook! Love and best wishes to all... Brian and Becca...our world travelers..HELLO!
