How did you go from a cute little roly poly ball of joy to a lean, handsome, awesome young man? Time has gone by so fast but we have enjoyed the journey with you! You are a great kid and such an important part of our family. We love you and are so proud of your accomplishments! You are smart, funny, talented, athletic and a super brother to your brother and sisters. They look up to you a lot and we appreciate your example to them. You have such a great personality and fun sense of humor and we are grateful for you.We are excited for you to continue to learn and grow-up and experience life. We are excited that you will be receiving the Priesthood and for the responsibilities that entails. We pray that you will continue to follow the right path and to stay close to your family and to make good choices! Have an awesome birthday and a great year! We Love You So Much Super Coop!! Mom and Dad
We had a fun family party for Coop. We are grateful to have such a supportive family. Coop scored big time in the cash area...thanks everyone!
Make a Wish...
Cooper was sooo excited to get a cell phone. This was a big step for us as parents but I think it will be a good thing for him. It was fun because we left the phone on and when he got ready to open it, we called the phone and he started freaking out. It was great!
We have had a tradition to take the kids out of school for lunch individually sometime during the week of their birthday. Cooper chose to go to Taco Time. It was really nice one-on-one time with him. It was great that Chon could sneak away from work to meet us there. I told Chon and Coop to make a funny face..good job Coop and Chon..really is that the best you could do?
Just can't resist the old bunny ears trick can you Chon?
Coop went to Syracuse Fun Center with a few of his buddies to celebrate. I was not invited :) Guess it was a "boys only" gig. Chon had a great time with them though.
They thought they were so funny to take pictures in front of the princess castle. What a bunch of studs!

Seeing Coop as a baby and now all grown up has brought a tear to my eye. Time goes by so fast! Cooper you are such an amazing boy! the way you take care of your siblings and the great example you are to them is awesome! You will always hold a special place in my heart! We love you! Happy Birthday!
Where has the time gone??? Carrie, you captured it all when you told of Cooper's talents and personality characteristics. I'm so proud of you Cooper for the great things you have done in your life. I wish I had thought of having the kids cook at 12, there is another talent for you to develop. Great job Cooper! Love you, Grandma W.
Happy Birthday Cooper! Cooper is a great kid! He has great examples as parents!! Thanks for not giving up on us Carrie!! And thanks so much to you and Cooper for making us feel so welcome and for helping us out with everything on Sunday! We really do appreciate it! Tre just loved being in your class! That's all he's talked about! :) We will see ya Sunday! :)
Such good parents! Or Dad. Hysterical that Mom wasn't invited! I love Cooper's baby mug-shot! (That's what I call the hospital pix.) But his mug-shot actually turned out really cute. My babies' hospital pix look like they're on crack & headed to jail. WOW, Cooper's baby pic sure looks like Cannon does now! A cell phone??? Geez, you're making me look bad. My almost 14 year old doesn't get one until he needs one, which is when he's driving or when he makes a High School team.
