New Pictures

Here are some pics from this past weekend. We had a very busy weekend, which we are not really used to :) but it was fun. 

Sat. we went to a pet show on base. It wasn't really anything to exciting, but Cope LOVES dogs so we went to check it out. There were plenty of dogs for him to chase around. Several of them had on costumes which was pretty funny. Then we went to the bday party I talked about. Copeland was a cowboy and the cutest little cowboy I have to say!! He had fun playing with the other kids and seeing their costumes. Then sunday we went to the Kansas City Chiefs game. We had never been to a pro football game before... We wished it was the Colts, but Chiefs are big out here so it was fun to get to experience that. Copeland did exceptionally well. I didn't know how he would do, but he loved it. He did get kinda fussy at the end, but the poor kid hadn't had is nap yet. He fell asleep on Beau walking out of the stadium!
That was our fun filled weekend! 

I just have to say, Beau and I started our own travel business. I will dedicate a whole post to that probably wed. or thurs. so be sure to check it out!! 
Thanks!!!


Check out Cope's hair!!! It was a little windy ha

Cope @ his first football game 



Ok, here is is costume... the funniest thing about this is 
he acted like nothing was hanging off him. 
He was totally oblivious the the big floppy horse that followed him around!!

Our 3 day weekend

We had another 3 day weekend with Beau. He was off today for Columbus day. We had a very relaxing, yet enjoyable weekend. On friday night, we went to eat with a guy Beau got to be really good friends with in Iraq. He is a single guy so he hangs out here a lot, and he loves Cope so they play together. Saturday we went to the BX (it's like a walmart with a food court and a coffee shop) for what we thought was going to be a pet show - it was cancelled, but the fire dept. was out for fire prevention week. We enjoyed that anyway. (see pics below) Sunday we went to church and worked in the nursery. Copeland's class. It was an answered prayer, because Copeland freaks out when we leave him in nursery. It's so bad that twice they had to get us! Anyway, I prayed that Sunday would go ok, and there was an opening in his class. God did answer our prayer, just in a way I didn't expect! :) The rest of the day we just hung out and watched the Colts game.  Then today we went to the state park for a picnic and to enjoy the fall weather. We had a great time! I gave Copeland a little hair cut before we left. His hair was so long it was hanging in his eyes. I hated to cut it, but felt bad for him.
We have a birthday party/costume party this weekend and hopefully we will get our family pics also. 
Hope everyone has a good week!

I have been tagged

Ok, here are my 6 random facts that might people not know:

1. I have never been to a circus. I don't know why I never went as a child, and I even lived in Evansville for 3 years and never went. That is one thing I would like to do, and experience with Copeland. 

2. I have 2 tattoos! I have a flower on my foot, and a celtic love not on my lower abdomen. (Beau has a matching love knot)

3. I LOVE ice cream!!! I could eat it every day if I knew I wouldn't gain 100 lbs. LOL! It is definitely my weakness. 

4. I strive to live everyday for Christ and be the best mother I can be. I want Copeland to know all about Jesus and his stories, the Bible, and know how to pray. It is not easy, but I do the best that I can. 

5. Family is VERY important to me. I love my family and my mom is one of my very best friends.   

6. I'm scared to get pregnant again! I want to, and I will, I'm just scared to go through all of that again. It was a wonderful experience, but at the same time, I didn't have the easiest pregnancy or delivery or recovery! So, it is a fear that keeps building inside me. I will have another child, I just have to be very ready! 

Ok, I now tag, Jamie Knepp, Tara Brower, and mandy Ash... Sorry if you have already been tagged!

I have been fighting a sore throat since Wednesday. Each day it gets worse. I went to the doctor on Friday and the doctor said it is just viral and there is nothing to do for it. That was the worst news I could hear! I have hardly moved all weekend! Like I said, each day it gets worse. So bad that Beau wanted to take me to the ER last night. We didn't end up going, but I think I might go back to the doctor tomorrow and beg for help!
Beau has been wonderful through all of this. Taking care of me, Copeland, and the dog!! He has cooked, picked up, taken Cope to the park, cleaned up after the dog, found a home remedy for me to try, and held me when I cried because I was just at rock bottom last night. I get sore throats a lot, to the point my parents and Beau want me to get my tonsils out, but I think this has been the worst sore throat I have ever had!! I can't even talk it hurts so bad! Please don't think I am complaining. It has actually taught  me a little. Like how I love being able to take care of Copeland. I take it for granted. Something I do everyday and sometimes I roll my eyes and think just give me a break! Well I got a break and I don't like it! I love taking care of my family. And I love being able to swallow! Ha that is something I definitely take for granted. 
Ok, enough about sore throats... I will post pics and write later - when I feel up to par! If you think about it, just say a prayer for me please. Thanks!!
