Election Relief


Horray!  The election has finally come to an end.  I have mixed emotions.  I am elated to hear that YES on Prop 8 finally passed.  We, family, friends, neighbors, etc., worked so hard to make sure that the traditional definition of marriage remains that of a man and woman.  I think it was a hard slung battle on both sides. After reflecting on the past 2 weeks, I think this has been one of those defining events. There is no room for fence sitters, gray area or maybes. You either stand for Truth and Righteousness, or you don't. I do. I try to. I try to teach that to my children.

Now as for the president, I really am on Hold. I would have preferred it he did not win, but he did. This is America. I am content to wait and see. He could surprise the conservative portion of the country and be successful. I am more concerned with the Democrats in Congress, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. The prayers will continue.

Trick Or Treat




It was a fairly quite Halloween at our house.  Child #1 dressed up as Joey "Joanne" Ramone, Child #2 was an In-N-Out guy, and wee little #3 was Batman.  Spectacular!  I think this was the easiest year we have had in creating costumes.  It's been 2 days and the candy collected has almost been eaten.  Well, all the good candy.  We have plenty of "office" candy to last us to next year!

Happy Halloween!

Prop 8- Hitting the Streets

Today was one of those Yankee-Doodle Dandies.  The kids and I, and later Stan, join over 400 friends and church members on highway 79 this evening to support the Yes o Prop 8 campaign.  We enjoyed the honking and waving of supporter driving by, and only a few ugly gestures.
Tomorrow morning I am up at 7 am to hit the street again with my sign.  
Pray for the voters and the country !




Eight is Great - Cooper Style


Our little boy has turned 8!

He lost his two front teeth, began Cub Scouts, got Heely's, got his own email account and was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints- all in one week.




We are so proud of him!
