While shopping in Vegas we stopped to ride the quarter rides and Parx was cracking me up on the motorcycle, he kept doing his "Tricks" the superman. Maybe it was in spirit of his supercross shirt he was sporting that day. Ha Ha my little stunt man

To Cut or Not To Cut???

2010-03-30T16:58:00.000-07:00

So Pman's hair is getting way long... which is what I wanted but its not really looking the way I thought it would. I think if it gets longer it will look good, but I dont know if I want to keep growing it out to find out. So my question is to cut or not to cut? If I do cut it I want its going to be like this....

My Dad just set the batting cage back up and we layed sand down, (the hard way, I shoveled for like 5 hours) but we stopped to have some fun and burried all the kids. They thought it was so funny, Parx kept laying down on the ground saying Burry me mommy! Now he calls it "the beach"

2009-05-04T14:57:00.000-07:00

This weekend was so fun! Justin took me down to Vegas and we went to the supercross finals, it was my first time! We spent all day watching the practice and qualifying races, where he educated me on all the racers and how they do certain things. When the night came it was way fun because I knew who each racer was and I could cheer for my favorites... mostly because I liked their outfits ha ha... thats embarassing! But I am happy to say that one of my guys kicked Justin's guy's butt!

Spontanious trip to Cali

2009-04-06T19:43:00.001-07:00

Since we have been having terrible weather here in St. George, my friend Justin and I decided to drive down to Santa Monica for the weekend. The first day we went down to the pier and walked around, there were some pretty cool dancers... and interesting people ha ha. Then we sat on the beach and watched the sunset, it was amazing by the way! Sunday was a perfect day at the beach, it was so nice and warm! Parx loved playing in the sand, I am going to be cleaning it out of my car for weeks! Here are a few pics from the trip (Kerra!)... I kind of wanna go back!

On our way!

Parx's Weird Teeth!

2009-03-24T19:18:00.000-07:00

So really there has been nothing new in my life to blog about... ha ha I'm pretty boring! Parx finally broke through another tooth on the bottom, so he will no longer look like the two toothed wonder! I took him to the dentist the other day and he pointed out that where Parx's top lip and gum are attached (I can't remember what it is called) it comes all the way down between his teeth, and that is what is causing the big gap between them. He said that he will have to have oral surgery to cut it back when he is around 7 or 8, but when I asked my doctor about it he said he should have the surgery when he is 2 or 3... So I am wondering if any of you have experienced this? When should I have the surgery done? or should I have it done? Here is a picture, sorry its not very good, he was mad.

Our summer kick off!

2009-03-17T17:24:00.000-07:00

We went to the Washington City Community Center today and took the kids swimming, It was nice to get out and get a little sun! I got a tan line in like 5 minutes, Yeah I know I'm white!

Parx and Kash loved playing in the water

Parx loved going down the slide, which surprised me because the water splashed in his face at the bottom and he hates water in his face.

Well I finally moved Parx out of my room! haha except he still wont sleep in his own bed, but we are working on it. This was quite a project, I had to clean out this room, which was piled from floor to ceiling with crap... then painting haha that red was a pain, I had to put about 10 coats on for it to cover. It was fun though, and it kept me busy.

This project didn't really work out how I had planned, but what does?

Parx's Face Painting

18 months!

2009-02-15T18:13:00.001-08:00

Today my baby is 18 months old! I can't believe how time flies. I love everything about him, he is my favorite part about waking up every morning. I love when he calles me Mama, it is the sweetest sound. He is getting so big and so smart, it amazes me how many things he picks up on. I love that he is so cuddly, and gives lots of kisses. I can't imagine life without him, and I am so glad he came into my life. He is my eveerything. I love you bubba!

R.I.P Uncle Jeff

2009-02-11T12:57:00.000-08:00

So my grandma has been worried about Jeff, because he hasn't come to the care center in the last couple days. She has been asking everyone if they had seen him, which we haven't but that isn't unusual. Jeff was the kind of uncle that we didn't know very well, he had been heavilly into drugs and alcohol in his life, which made it very hard to talk to him... You could barely understand a word he said. So today my dad went to check on him and found his body, we are not sure yet what the cause of death was. It makes me more sad, that I am really not saddened by his death. We never had any sort of relationship, he was just kind of... there. I don't even have anything to say about him, no memories, no stories of his life. I feel bad that there are people out there that can be dead for days without people finding them, especially a member of my own family. It makes me wonder if we had just tried harder, would it have made a difference in his life? I feel so sad for him that he lived such a lonely life... and had such a lonely death. We all gave up on him...

Parx and Kash's ER trip

2009-01-23T09:58:00.000-08:00

Yesterday Parx and Kash got into some pills, Parx had one in his mouth, and we weren't sure if Kash had any. I called poison control and they said that the boys had to go to the emergency room because this medication could stop their breathing. When we got there they said the boys would have to be monitored for 12 to 24 hours... oh great!

All hooked up

Food was about the only thing that kept their minds off of all the wires attatched to them

Parx got really lethargic, it scared the crap out of me

Ready to be transported to pediatrics

The ambulance ride

This is about how our night went, Parx slept great while my eyes were glued to the monitor

Kash was happy this morning!

The boys this morning, waiting to see if we could go home

Parx in his pretty dress ha ha

luckilly the boys were fine and we were released this morning. I have had enough hospital stays for one week! Plus my grandma has been in ICU since monday... so we have spent 7 out of the last 10 days at the hospital...

New Random Pics of Parx

He is way too big for his walker... but now that he can climb in it by himself of course he wants to play with it!

Parx walking around in my heels again... oh man

He looks better in that hat than I do

Well it's been a week now since I lost my babies, and it hasn't gotten any easier. I just keep thinking what might have been. I never knew that it could be this hard, and I just feel so bad for anyone who has had to go through this. I am so grateful for my little Parx, knowing that I have him is keeping me going one day at a time. And Jason, though I know he is hurting too, has been so great through all of this, he just keeps reminding me that they are okay and I will get to see them again. I just wish it was sooner. Thanks everyone for your kind words and love and support. I love you all.

Not So Happy Birthday

2009-01-15T17:10:00.000-08:00

Yesterday Jason and I went in for our doctor's appointment excited to hear our baby's heartbeat again, but when it came time, the doctor couldn't find it. He sent us over to get an ultrasound and that's when we found out we were having twins, but neither one had a heartbeat. We were sent to the hospital where I was induced, Max Jason was born at 5:28 and his brother Madden Vince at 5:44 this morning. They were so tiny but so well developed, and perfect. We could see all their tiny fingers and toes and little facial features, it looked like Madden was smiling. Max looked like he passed away a couple days ago (thats why he is more red) and since they were identical, and shared a placenta, Madden couldn't make it either. This has been the most devistating thing I have had to go though, but I'm grateful for the time we got to spend with them. We love you boys.

Max and Madden's tiny little feet

Aunt Min RIP

2009-01-14T13:56:00.000-08:00

My Aunt Minnie passed away today, she was the sweetest lady. She never had any children of her own so I think she kind of thought of all of us as her kids, she kept everyone's school pictures up in her room. I remember when I was little she would give us quarters so we could walk up to Nisson's and buy treats. I also remember her old blue van and going for rides sitting on the carpeted benches, and going to Thunderbird to swim. She always remembered us on our Birthday, and Christmas, she was always so thoughtful. The last time I saw her she was in the hospital with pheumonia and she had this machine on that was shaking her, but she was still excited and happy to see us. Aunt Minnie had some physical handicaps that made life more difficult for her, but I never noticed it get her spirits down. We love you and we will miss you!

Im a retard

2008-12-29T18:10:00.000-08:00

Ha ha so I just noticed that I put Christmas 2009 on my post... seriously I am losing it!

Our New Addition

2008-12-29T18:06:00.000-08:00

Well I wasn't ready to announce it to the whole world yet, but pretty much everyone already knows, because Jason is so excited that he can't contain himself and tells everyone he sees... so anyway we are going to be having a baby at the end of July! Yay another summer pregnancy!

Springdale

2008-09-16T14:36:00.000-07:00

We decided it would be fun to take a day trip up to Springdale and float down the river. When we got there the guy was telling us that it was probably too hard for Kysen to go, but we were determined and they finally let us get tubes. When we finally arrived to the launching part of the river, after a brutal hike, we saw that this was deffinaletly going to be an adventure... it had rained the whole week before so it was like we were taking a ride in willy wonka's chocolate river. It was so cold when we first got in and I wanted to jump back out, but I'm glad I stuck it out because we ended up having so much fun! Kysen was a trooper and didn't want anyone to hold on to his tube, and he loved it! We endured some pretty extreme rapids each one of us tipped over or got stuck. I wish I had an after picture because we were all covered in mud.

1. As you comment on my blog, leave one (or 2 or 3 or 10) memories that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember.
2. Next, repost these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty fun to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you are playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave a memory about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you do not have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments. Have fun!!

Parx now has three teeth! Yesterday I found that he had cut through a new tooth, but it wasn't the one I was expecting, he got a top molar! There is still no sign of his top front teeth but by golly he has three! For some reason he always gets them on the second, he got his front left bottom on June 2nd, his front right bottom on July 2nd and now his top left molar on September 2nd... weird

Ryan's Obituary

2008-08-15T08:23:00.001-07:00

Ryan Thomas Cooper
August 14, 2008

Ryan Thomas Cooper returned to his Heavenly Father August 11, 2008, tragically, following an automobile accident.

Ryan was such a joy to be around, he always greeted everyone with a huge smile on his face. With the infectious personality that he had, it was easy for him to make many friends.
Ryan was born October 26, 1981, in St. George to Tom Cooper and Kelly Parr Miller. Ryan was a beautiful child with his blonde hair and big brown eyes. He was just a tremendous kid.
Ryan spent his childhood in Santa Clara where he attended Snow Canyon High School. He was very active in school and he excelled in football, basketball and soccer. Ryan got his GED in 2000.
Ryan married the love of his life, Kaysha Marie Gibson on September 24, 2005 in St. George. He was so happy that day, and looked forward to building a fulfilling life with her. They made so many happy memories as a newlywed couple on their honeymoon to Cabo San Lucas. Ryan and Kaysha started their new life together in Washington, Utah, where they worked together to start Cooper Concrete Co. Inc. Ryan took pride in his work and added much beauty to new homes, including his own dream home that he built with Kaysha. Ryan learned the concrete business working side by side with his step dad, Keith.
Ryan was the father of three beautiful children, Isabella, Kysen and Kash. He loved each of them very dearly. Ryan loved to spend time with his family and was so excited to watch his children grow up. Bella adored her daddy and learned many things from him. He was so excited when he taught her to wakeboard. Kysen looked up to Ryan, his "Ry Ry", and they loved playing together. Ryan coached Kysen in all of his sports and was looking forward to the upcoming soccer season. Ryan was so proud of his new baby boy, Kash. He could always make him laugh so hard. Kash loved being thrown up into the air and Daddy did it best.
Ryan was never one to sit around. He loved being out playing. During the summers he loved boating at the lake with his family and so many good friends. He could always count on the Reyos' to be there. All of the kids wanted to wakeboard just like Ryan, and he was more than happy to teach them. Ryan loved "trying" to golf, with Karl. They spent many good afternoons together. Kaysha was another good golfing buddy when Ryan didn't want to be so serious. Ryan loved taking the four-wheeler up to the mountains to hunt for sheds or take his bow to look for the "big one." During the winter you could find Ryan at Brian Head shredding the slopes. Ryan loved his music. He was always playing "Name That Tune" with Kaysha and of course he always won. He loved grilling food for friends and family especially when the Kansas City Chiefs were playing. Every time he walked in the door after checking on the food he would say, "Ohh this is gonna be so GOOOOD!" Ryan loved food and loved to eat. He was taking flying lessons and loved to fly over his house and call the kids to tell them to look up. Ryan was always trying new things.
Ryan took care of his family and they always knew they could count on him, especially his baby sister Sierra and his mom who will miss him dearly. He has been the rock for his family whether it was hanging out with his uncle Matt or being there for his sister. Ryan will be truly missed by everyone that knew and
loved him.
Ryan Cooper is survived by his wife, Kaysha, children, Isabella Jade Cooper (10), Kysen Jared Goodspeed (7), and Kash Ryan Cooper (10 mos.), his mother, Kelly Miller (Horace), father, Tom Cooper (Phyllis), stepfather, Keith Bawden (Lori), sister, Sierra, brothers, Skyler and Matt; mother and father-in-law, Dennis and Billie Gibson, grandparents, Joan Van Seters (Joe), Reed Parr (Becky), Claudine Cooper, Bob Cooper (Bertha), Sterling Bawden, Verla Bunnell (Dan), sisters and brothers-in-law, Rebel Gibson, Chad Gibson, Malea Gibson and Quinn Gibson, aunts and uncles, Matthew Parr, Kevin Parr (Tracey), Kelly (Marcia) Cooper, Craig (Elaine) Cooper, Lisa (Carl) Bowler, nieces and nephews, Kyleigha, Tayvin, Cambria, Parx, Charlotte, Gage and Kenzie, and many cousins. Ryan is preceded in death by Grandpa and Grandma the Great.
Funeral services will be held Thursday, August 14, 2008, at 6:00 p.m. with visitation two hours prior, at Spilsbury Mortuary Chapel, 110 S. Bluff St., St. George.
In lieu of flowers, a trust fund for Ryan's children has been set up at Beehive Credit Union.

We will miss you Ryan!

2008-08-13T11:28:00.000-07:00

Ryan Thomas Cooper was tragically killed in a car accident on Aug. 11 2007. He was born October 26th 1981. He was married to the love of his life, Kaysha and had three beautiful children, Bella, Kysen and Kash. Ryan was full of life and was loved by all that knew him. He was the happiest when he was surrounded by the people he loved. He enjoyed boating at the lake with family and many close friends, snowboarding, golfing, and hunting. Ryan was a very happy person and was all about having fun. He loved his family more than anything, and they loved him. Ryan will be missed by everyone who knew and loved him.
