Cooper's Corner


Summer 2019 ****


August 05, 2019
Wednesday Keaton took the boys bowling while the cleaners came. They went out to Ihop afterward. Saturday was a good day ... some basketball with Cal (won him in PIG ... but they played to another word). Big Blackham bunch (sans Keaton) went out in the afternoon. Allstar Arcade and bowling. Some hacky-sack and volleyball in the evening, then Jackbox games (Monster Meeting Monster, "will you date me?") and Skookie. Sunday was family lake day. Dead fish all over the beach and floating in the water. The water level dropped so fast the oxygen was depleted, killing the fish. A little basketball and football in the water. Those who didn't apply sunscreen got a little toasted.  On the food front, Dad made brisket on Saturday, and it was a Popeyes week! Dad picked it up Monday, then Keaton did on Wednesday, then Landon did on Thursday!

July 28, 2019
More ping pong. Bowling w/mom. Apollo Burger. Mountain walk and brunch ... had a burger.

July 21, 2019  The family has started to play ping-pong again and I'm having fun playing it. I have already played all mom, Colton, Keaton, and Callahan. Mom and I played bowling and we both switched off winning games. Later we me, Keaton, Callahan, and Kate all went to the mall. I went to Foot Locker with Keaton where he got a job offer, and we also so Callahan's friend Daxton there too. We went to a sweets shop at the mall where they had all kinds of unique candies, but we just chose to get all red gummy bears, and some sour ones. Then I went to go shirt shopping with mom to Nike and Ross. At Nike, I got around five new shirts, and at Ross I got two new ones, as well as the Adidas BYW's. No new movies seen this week. Landon did offer up The Lion King, but after a water balloon fight in the front yard, as well as getting a new bed kind of tired me out of it. As of July goes, movies seem to be over, and we are waiting for the August releases.

July 14, 2019     Starting this week, I got a text from my uncle Kolby, asking me if I was interested in seeing a Seahawks game later in the year. I've never been to a game, so I obviously said yes, so me and dad will be heading over to Seattle in early October. And since it's a Thursday night game, we'll be staying in Seattle two more days than if we were going to a Sunday night game. Colton, Keaton, and I all chipped in to buy a new Mario game. I've still been interested in SMM2, so I haven't gone very far into it. Keaton, on the other hand, beat the game in less than three hours in one day, so I have some catching up to do. We went bowling on Thursday, and this was definitely one of my better days. I got second up to mom in my first round, scoring 104, and won the second with 125. I think in my past four games of bowling combined, I didn't get a single strike. But that day, I got five or six. Then we went for our usual movie. This time we watched Crawl, a movie about a hurricane in Florida that in which crocodiles got swept up, and the two main characters have to survive them. Out of the three of us, we seemed to all really enjoy it. Next up is one of; Stuber, The Lion King, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

July 7, 2019      I hung out with McKay earlier this week at my house and we had fun. Beat Saber, bumper balls, bowling. Free agency has only been getting better. Kawhi made his long-awaited decision, and chose to go to the Clippers. This was unexpected, but was more unexpected was that PG got traded there like 5 minutes later. That probably made this the most insane off-season ever. There are still some notable free agents, but most of the big names have already made their decisions. I went to see Spiderman Far from Home, and it is probably one of my favorite Marvel movies to date. It was just really cool, and it made me laugh a lot. The next day we went to see Midsommar. And it was disturbing to say the least, and will probably be the weirdest movie I ever see. What weighed it down the most was how freaking slow it was. It was alright, but most movies I have seen with Landon and Sol this summer have been much better. Next movie on the list is probably Crawl, which is coming out in 4 days, followed the the Lion King live-action a week after. I have continued to play SMM2, as I beat the story mode, and I also made a few of my own levels. Landon is the only to beat my first level out of two people, and nobody has beat my second level and over ten people have tried it. Making levels was actually really fun, and I'm probably going to make more. And just on Saturday we had homemade burgers for lunch, and homemade corn dogs for lunch, which were both really good.

June 30, 2019   It hasn't been the most productive week, but since I have to write in this every week, I guess just enough happened. No movies, but I am going to see Spider Man today, Midsommar later this week, and Stranger Things on the 4th of July. The highlight of this week was probably free-agency in the NBA, which started Sunday. Some of the biggest moves were KD, Kyrie, and DJ to the Nets, Kemba to the Celtics, Jimmy to the Heat, Russell to the Warriors, and probably literally 50 other signings. But the most anticipated has yet to come with Kawhi not making a decision yet. We went to the church to play basketball for the first time this summer, and probably won't be our last. I went to the dentist on Wednesday, and no cavities as usual, but I did get a new toothbrush and a prescription toothpaste. And kitten went back into heat for the first time in a few weeks. The last few times, it seemed it didn't last very long, but she has been noisy for a long time. Just yesterday, I got a new game for the Switch; Super Mario Maker 2. I've been playing it for a majority of today, and the game doesn't really ever end people are constantly going to add content to the game daily, so it probably won't go anywhere soon.

June 23, 2019   For this week, Landon, Sol and I saw movies as we usually do. We first watched Toy Story 4 on Thursday, and it was really good and funny. I don't know where I would rank it along with the other three movies, but I think it would probably be one of my favorites. Then the next day, we saw Child's Play, or Chucky. Out of all the horror movies I have watched, this was probably one of the scariest I have seen so far. It was also surprising funny, and I enjoyed it. Next on our list of movies to watch will likely be Annabelle next week. And dad got a new toy for him; a Razor. I haven't driven in it yet, or even gone into it either, but I bet I will soon, and it'll probably be fun. Another thing we got were some bumper-balls. I remember playing in them a year or two ago, and they were really fun to play with until they both deflated. Hopefully that won't happen this time. Mom and Callahan brought out stuff to make water balloons for the summer. There was no water balloon fight, but me and Callahan got soaking wet by just spraying water at each other.

June 16, 2019   The finals are over now, and I am happy to say the the Raptors took down the Warriors. I am not a Raptors fan, but I hate the Warriors so I'm glad to see them get taken down. Other than that, we had a few Father's Day reunions last weekend, the Blackham side on Saturday, and the Westra side on Sunday. Not much happened to talk about there, but it did take a pretty big chunk of the weekend, so why not include it? And as of movies went this week, Landon, Sol, and I went to go see Dark Phoenix. It was the first X-Men movie I saw, and it was pretty cool and got me interested to watch some of the other movies. And later this week, the movie we are probably going to watch is both Toy Story 4 and Child's Play, both of which are coming out this Friday. And I finally got into a new TV show that I haven't watched a thousand times before. Parks and Rec is basically like the office, but funnier. And with the VR game Beat Saber, a new music pack came out, and now we can play to Imagine Dragons songs.

June 9, 2019  The main thing I would say that happened this week is the finals. Three games have happened this week and Toronto is up 3-1, and everybody in the house is rooting for them to beat the Warriors. And like I said last week, I was right about going to see Ma, as most of us went to the movies to watch it earlier this week. Colton, Landon, Sol, Callahan, Kate and I all went to see it, and I think I was the one that enjoyed it the most. I don't know the next movie on our list is, but whatever it is, I'm looking forward to it. And then Colton, mom and I went bowling at All-Star lanes. I did pretty good for the first time in about a year with a few spares and strikes.

June 2, 2019 (Sunday) School is out now, and it is finally summer. I've been looking forward to this since the first day of school. My last day was Wednesday, where we did nothing but sign yearbooks. But before that, our friends from California came for a visit. The DiFran fam came for breakfast, and stayed to play spike ball and beat saber. This was probably the highlight of my week. And since I don't like going to Lagoon, I stayed home when I was supposed to go during school, but then I went to hang out with my friends afterwards where we watched a movie and played games. Then I went to see the new movie Godzilla with Landon, and it was pretty good. Movies have been a new fun thing for me to do, and Landon will bring me along almost any time, and we'll probably watch Ma later this week.



January  20,  2015

            There has been a lot of things that have been going on this weekend. There were three main things I would talk about with you. First, I went to brothers basketball game, and he got a buzzer beater for the win. Second, my friend Jacob came to our house and accidently broke a window while we were playing baseball. And last is that we finally got a new kitty from the Humane society. These were all the cool things that have happened that happened this long weekend. And now I will tell you more about it in these next few paragraphs.

         First was that my brother got a game winning shot in his basketball game. The game was Copper Hills Grizzlies against the Bingham Miners. And my brother was a part of Copper Hills. In all of the quarters the game was neck and neck, in fact, the game even went into overtime for an extra quarter. The game was tied at forty seven with eleven seconds to go. The team passed it to my brother Callahan, with only a couple seconds to go, and he shot a deep three pointer and got it for the win against the Miners. This was the first cool thing that happened this weekend.

         Second, is that my friend Jacob accidently broke one of our windows while playing baseball. For some stupid reason, me, my brother, and Jacob were to lazy to get a baseball bat, and there was a lead pipe in front of us, so we played with it. Me and Colton went first to go bat and hit the ball, nothing really happened, we just hit some of the balls places. Then it was Jacobs turn to bat to hit the ball. He got into his batting position and once we threw the ball, the lead pipe slipped out of his hands and went right through the window. Since there was a huge hole through our window, my dad measured some cardboard then he covered the window. This was another thing that happened this weekend.

         Last is that our family finally got a kitten since we wanted one from Christmas break. He is such a cute kitty, and we were already prepared to get this kitty. His name is Oreo, and he is four months old right now. Me and my brother Landon discovered him on pet finder.com, and we knew we had to get him. We already set up a litter box and where he would eat. But there is a little problem that me, Keaton, and Landon have had some allergic reactions to the cat, but we’re fighting through it because we really love Oreo and we want to keep him. This is the last thing that happened this awesome weekend.


         As you can see, I had a great weekend because of all of these things. And these are the things why it was a great weekend. First was that my brother got a buzzer for the win in overtime. Second was that my friend accidently broke a window at my house while playing some baseball, and it really scared my brother Landon while he was on the computer and that was where the window broke. And the last thing was that we finally got a kitty and we’ve been waiting for it since Christmas break. This is why I had an awesome weekend at home, because of all these things.
