Sometimes...

...we have to let go of the ones we love, because we love them so much.
Today Britt entered the MTC. We said goodbye on Monday, and it was very hard. I'm doing better, and life is happy! Britt is going to be an AWESOME missionary, and we are all so super proud of him! I love him, and miss him. I hope two years will go by quickly, even though it probably won't.

I'M DONE! HALLELUJAH!

I think this expression is PERFECT for the way I feel right now. I just finished taking my LAST final! And I felt really good about it! Somehow I kept breathing and the world didn't stop spinning mid-semester, although many times I was pretty sure it was over.
YAY!
That's really all I can say!

Hiking in Snow Canyon with the Fam

So on the morning of Saturday the 6th of December, Bob, the father of the Cope Clan decided to round up his children and go on a hike on Johnson's Arch in Snow Canyon.

Here are some highlights of the very fun and exciting adventure.

Safety first!

Ally and the girls being silly and posing very prettily for the camera.

Avery is scaling the side of a mountain... actually it wasn't that steep, but it looks AWESOME!

My BEAUTIFUL Mother and the pretty scenery.

Austy, LaLa and Tommy Boy!

Sadie and Biz after the hike. Biz is enjoying rather thoroughly her Root Beer.

Me and Biz at Marv's hahah I love this picture because of how funny Bizzy's expression is.

Confession... or Brag session...?

So I have a confession... the rumors on Annaca's blog are true. I have a boyfriend. Cute huh? I think it's kinda fun, and I'm kinda proud of the fact. :)
His name is Britt Staheli, and he goes to BYU, and he leaves on his mission on Jan. 21 to Portland, Oregon. So I'm expecting cards of condolences and flowers and balloons on that day... just so you know.

It's probably time for an update...

We went to Nauvoo over the Fall Break, and it was SUPER fun!
This is a picture of Mom and Dad at Far West.

Me and Ave at the Joseph Smith house (this is the backyard view), and Avery looks ecstatic!

This is our WHOLE group at Carthage! Yay for Nauvoo and Church History!

This is a picture of the kids the day we left! We all did cool poses because we want to be cool like Tony! Yep we stayed in a house just across the street from the temple, it RULED!

Ally and I on the plane, we look pretty good for how tired we were!
Anyway, Nauvoo is ALWAYS a cool trip! I'm really grateful that we were able to go, and I really LOVED the people we went with! I learned a bunch, and I love family trips! They are so HAPPY!

Think Happy Thoughts...

Me and my BESTEST friend Sally!Today was kind of rough, so to cheer myself up I called my soul sista Sal! She is currently living in Provo, UT as she attends BYU... Lame!! Not that going to BYU is lame, just that she lives 3 1/2 HOURS away...

So I spent the day thinking happy thoughts of how I get to see her this weekend when I go up to Provo! Yay! I might even stay in her appartment with her! Yay for sleeping on the floor!
Woot!
I'm super duper excited! It makes me smile just pondering on times spent with Sal.

10 reasons why Sally wins the BESTEST friend Award:

1.We never stop laughing when we are together.
2. She makes the BEST CDs.
3. The kissing pact... (inside joke)
4. We make/eat cookies together.
5. We take pictures like this.....

6. She knows what to do when "It's a break up day."
7. She tells me I'm pretty.
8. She is the Best Car Dancer/Singer
9.She embraces all the weird things about me and loves me anyway!
10.I can tell her my lameball problems and she makes me feel better.

......Somehow we just get each other

Yay SALLY! I'm SOO EXCITED to come PLAY with you this Weekend!
Love You!

Here Goes...

Me and the Fam at Bethesda Fountain in NYC

K So... Tons has happened in the several months that I have neglected to post anything. I did return from grad night intact, went to New York with my cousin Clin, my fam, and Lisa Crofts. I played with my friends and worked at Dr. Bob's office. On August 26th I started college at Dixie State and now I'm working part time. Ok, from now on I'm going to try to post at least once a week. I won't neglect my blog anymore. Happy Annaca? hah just kidding. :)
