This is what I do...

...when I go to Vegas for a wedding.

Here is my good buddy Worf.

Perhaps you recognize him. He is the tactical officer and the Chief of Security on the USS Enterprise. Actually, he is the Lieutenant Commander.

Worf is not all about titles though.

His true passion is World domination!!!

I told him that I was going to go to Vegas for a wedding and he was all over it.

Texting me again and again that he HAD to go with me. That he was going to take over Vegas and realize his dream.



What could I do?

He has a hippo for a phaser...and a drink stirrer for another weapon.

You don't mess with power like that.

So I took him with me to Vegas. He really enjoyed the view from our room at the Luxor. Kept asking me to break the glass.

What a freak.


It didn't take long before he was running off. I followed him, just had to see what he was up to

I turned the corner and there he was. Standing at gun point.

Surprise, surprise.

Who goes for a walk to try to achieve world domination and ends up with gun in his face?

Obviously Worf does.


Not so tough now with out your hippo phaser now are you?

I had to do something. He had the room key after all.

So, I followed them. Worf was tied to a TREE!

What?

How is he going to get out of this?


As I peered a little closer I noticed.....

He had dropped the room key! Salvation!

"You're on your own, sucker!" Was all I could manage to shout out to him as I ran away.

Taking a last look, I saw him. He was free, and angry.

I am going to be watching my back for a while now.

Shannon bo Bannon

Get your party hats on boys and girls, because it is time for....

SHANNON'S BIRTHDAY!!!!

Woot woot!

There she is... a precious little baby in my Moms arms. Such a little sweetie.

(yes, I stole these pics off of Shannon's blog, but it was an old post...I need new Shannon pics ok?)

She was an amazing kiddo even then.

Here she is now. ---------------------------->

27 years older and so wonderful. (that's out nephew Wyatt with her)

I always write about my family members on their birthday's ..here is proof. http://coopercomics.blogspot.com/2008/07/happy-birthday-shannon.html

So, sorry if I repeat myself. :)

My sister is kind and genuine.

I feel at home with her around.

She is really special to me.

So, anyone mess with her and I will toilet paper your house sooooo good, your Momma'a Momma will be picking up paper for a month!

All this emotion!

What is my deal???

It must be because my baby sister is 7 months pregnant and I am a wee bit overprotective.


<--------------------Doesn't she look smashing, even in a sliding glass door reflection???? Everyone I know has heard me go on and on about how excited I am about my nephew coming soon. I am serious about his arrival. He is going to bust into this world and we are all going to love him to BITS! That is a fact.

How does the birthday girl Shannon feel about this????

Ahhh. I see.

Two thumbs up.

Love you sooooooo much Shay-bah-bons.

*Sigh*

I must just have the summer blahs.

Blogging hasn't been up there on my list of things to do. I love writing about our adventures...so, it is weird not to.

I think it is the heat.

Awesome news alert!

My bestest friend since I was 14, Polly Page came to see me.

She drove all the way from Tucson. Pretty sure that is 9 hours away form here. She even brought her super cute and fun daughter Felicia.

I know...amazing friend huh?

She is.

Zion was our destination on a hot Tuesday. Kelly had a fun time riding with Felicia. Such patience for an 11 year old. I admire that.

We saw a really smashing goat. Or is it a big horned sheep? I am really not sure






Did we do any hikes? See the hanging gardens?

Um......no.

It was too hot!

Bleh..the heat.

I am such a cry baby about the heat lately. I lived in Tucson for a couple of years. We kicked it in Henderson Nevada for 4 years.

Pretty sure I wore out my heat tolerance.

Anyway....we went to Springdale and had a yummers lunch. that town has changed so much. Such a tourist trap.

Love it.

Kelly drew a picture for the waiter. It is of her...on top of a hill. She is pushing an alien off of the hill. This is drawn often, not really sure why.


I made my standard paper crane. My mom got me a really awesome origami book with lots of different things to make. I need to practice the new things more.

But, I make the same crane 10 times a day. Working on changing that.




Now Polly and Felicia are back home.

I am pretty sure that this is what it looked like from the back seat.

Love them.
