Rugby, Dorritos, and a wedding....

Soooooooo....update on my life? uh...well....David is playing with new Utah rugby super league team, the Utah Warriors. I think it's funny that EVERY year after EVERY rugby season, he tells me how he's done with rugby because it takes up too much of his time and energy...then suits up a few months later for another tourney. *sigh* men! whoever said that women are the complicated ones has their pants on fire, that's all I gotta say. I'm sure the reason he keeps saying he's done with rugby is because he thinks that I think it's a waste of time. On the contrary, I know how much he loves the sport. It's what he grew up playing Down Unduh and
Rugby: Aussies
Football: Americans
He's so passionate about this, and I think it's so cute! For instance, he's playing in Las Vegas right now (not the sevens...the fifteens....yes, there is a fifteens tournament!) and before he left his team went out to dinner and they handed out their brand spankin new super fly gear and when David came home, he seemed so excited to show us all! and before he left to Vegas, he wrote a little check list to make sure he didn't forget anything. That was surprising to say the least. He's always annoyed that I always write a check list when we travel or sleep over...like I said....men. are. complicated. It was a long night last night without David...we haven't been apart for this long in at least a year. Me and the gals are on our own till sunday, but we're makin the best of it. We're sittin around eating Dorritos and cookies cause Deputy David of the Junk Food Police Squad isn't here to tell us that eating like this is bad. The girls keep asking where daddy is, so to get their minds off of his absence, we got out to the library to grab them some new bedtime stories (Sia won't sleep until I read at least 5 books) and for us to get some fresh air (2 thumbs up for the nice weather today!). I think we're gonna go thrifting later on today, we'll see how that ends up.
I have also been planning my little sissy's bridal shower. Brittny will be a Rolf this June and I am sooooo happy for her. Me and Nikki are throwing her shower so I'll be sure to post all that info in a later blog for everyone to come. I was the first of the family to get married, but me and David eloped and had the cheapest ceremony of life and none of my family was there...so Brittny's ceremony is kind of like...the first for my family. I would think that my parents would be really excited, especially my mom. I just envisioned her being excited to plan and decorate and help choose a gown and all that good stuff, but she's pretty much being a sourpuss about the whole thing...why? not really sure, but if I were to guess...she probably thinks that it's too fast and they had there hopes on her finishing school on her volleyball scholarship and getting a high-paying job, THEN getting married and settled down. In the eyes of my parents...daughter #1 didn't do it....daughter #2 isn't gonna do it....ALL HOPES ON NIKKI. ha! Well, no matter what, I support Brittny's decisions...as well as my remaining siblings and I will always be here for them. Well, I'm off to Costco to get some samples and a churro!
