Pictures from our trip to Colorado in June to visit the Coopers! Also pictures from the July Coopicott birthday celebration. Tyler & Jess share a birthday on July 27, and my dad’s was July 15.

I’ll have pictures from my trip to the Dominican Republic in the next few weeks, after I return!! (And from our 1 year anniversary!)

Colorado - June 2008

July Bdays 2008!

“Paaaast the point of no return……no going back now!” (A “Phantom of the Opera” throw back for you.)

I took this with my cell phone, and it makes me laugh.

Yesterday I needed a mental break from reading Compassion: A Reflection on the Christian Life by Henri Nouwen, and so I dug into my old files to sort through pictures.

I found some that my dad took the day after our wedding, Sunday July 29th, when we had our families over to watch us open our plethora of presents. It was so much fun to get so many great gifts!

Anyway, I quickly located my favorites in the batch, the succession showing Tyler gradually tying a bow on his head, and my reaction thereafter.

I thought you might get a chuckle as well.

Here we are, opening gifts as normal newlyweds would do.

Looks like I’m slapping him, as normal newlyweds would do.

And…………….Tyler finds something!

And suddenly Tyler’s ability to sit and be still has ended.

And, thus Tyler begins to tie his bow.

I am still working the room and opening gifts.

Still opening gifts…

And suddenly I notice that my husband has tied a bow on his head.

My expression says it all…I make this face a lot nowadays. And I love it!
