(Jason): I am thankful for my family, my education, my testimony, and my friends.
(Brittanie): I am thankful for my home, my family, my friends, my puppy (the one I dream about having, and also my big ol' puppy back at home), and the gospel.
We absolutely love this time of year. The holidays are the greatest, getting to spend quality time with family and friends, eating good food, and stopping to reflect on what's really important in this life.
We have been so blessed to be close to both of our parents, it can be challenging when trying to be at every event and dinner but overall we are extremely grateful for the love and support we have so close by. It has been so fun to grow closer to both families as we begin our own. You really don't realize how wonderful your parents are until you leave home. We owe so much to them for all have done and continue to do for us. We love you guys!!
We are really filled with so much gratitude for our family and the joy and love they bring in to our life together. We are especially grateful to be able to spend this family-oriented time of year celebrating the upcoming arrival of the newest addition to the Cooper family...
We are unbelievably excited to announce the arrival of Baby Cooper! Joining us Summer of 2014! Mostly we say "Summer" because they're due the end of June, and we're worried that the baby will decide to take their sweet time and not arrive until July, so "Summer" sounds a little better!
"The challenges ahead of me seem a lot easier now knowing my child is on the way. It motivates me to do and be better for them. I am so excited!" -Jason
"I am still in disbelief...but in a good way! It seriously makes me smile all day long hearing Jason repeatedly tell me how excited he is and how awesome it feels to know he is going to be a Dad. I am already so in love with the little family we are beginning!" -Brittanie
Surprise!!!
