Winter Celebrations

Hola Amigos-

I partied hard with my buddy Will at the Great Duck Cook-Out of 2010 a few weeks ago. Mr. Jim had a big crowd for the 6th annual installment (FYI - It got much cooler starting last year if you ask Will and I...just saying.)



We entertained the crowd with a little dueling pianos...Will is really quite talented.

I have become quite the coffee brewing extraordinaire as of late. I helped my Grandmas and Grandpas brew it daily last week while Mom and Dad were off playing in the snow.Yes, this is my real hair.Mom thought that just because I would come under the 50 lb. bag weight maximum, that she could pack me up and take me along. I told here that was crazy talk and slipped out before they loaded my bag in the car for the airport....that was close.Ahhh, Valentine's Day. Dad says its a Hallmark Holiday, but we still need to break out the romance for our ladies...whatever that means. We both wore red, and I chased my dogs around with a heart shaped balloon. It was fun.

The circus is in town, and we have tickets to the big show for Saturday. I can't wait to see the elephants, zebras and tigers...not so sure about the clowns though.


Happy Birthday Michael, see you Sunday dude.


Hope everyone is surviving this brutal Winter. Have a great rest of February.

Where's Cooper?

Let's play a little game of "Where's Cooper?"



Mom and Dad took a little trip out West last week and had an amazing time. They went skiing in Colorado. Here is Mom and Dad at the top of the mountain at 12,000 feet. Mom had graduated to the Blue/Intermediate runs by Thursday and went to the top twice on the last day....but, hmmmm -- Where's Cooper? I don't see me in this picture.

I see some fresh pow-pow in this photo, but Where's Cooper?


Well Gee! I see Aunt Jennifer and Uncle Ethan with Mom and Dad, but Where's Cooper? Not in this pic.


What a great shot of Mom and Aunt Jennifer with a view of the slopes from the deck, but....Where's Cooper?


I know you are all sharp enough to figure out that I was not, in fact, in Colorado with Mom and Dad. They took an "adults only" trip and had a blast, but guess what? I stayed home and got to hang out with all my awesome Grandparents. Grandma Babs and Grandpa Stu came into town for the first half of the week, and K and D spent the second half. I even got an extra day and night with K and D when Mom and Dad got stuck in Memphis due to the great Atlanta blizzard of 2010.


It was a great week for everyone. Special thanks to my Grandmas and Grandpas, Love you guys!
