I'm a Rugby Mom

so when my 17 year old told me he was going to play Rugby I gave a little giggle. He looked at me with his big blue eyes and said "I'm serious mom". and the scene from Friends, where Ross plays Rugby with Emily's friends from England went through my head



He promised to be careful, and even tried to explain the sport to me. many many many youtube videos later, I was clueless but more scared then before. My kid could get really hurt out there. YIKES so last weekend they had a Jamboree with 4 schools. I invited Grandpa and Grandma Williams to come watch, and invited Jason's Girlfriend to come watch with me too. we FROZE, it was so cold. The game started, and well it looked like monkey ball, and we had no clue what we were watching. It was just me and Janae for the second game, so we went and stood over by the team and the coaches. I picked up a few phrases and learned a bit listening to the coaches yell to the field. I watched Jason get pulled to the ground, and tossed into the air. lots of time reminding myself to breathe while trying to snap pictures and still watch. (as soon as I find the camera, I'll put pictures here)

SeaHawk game and Winter Colds

Don and I had the chance to go to the Seattle Seahawk game last weekend. We bundled up and set out for a day in the cold. since then, we've both been struggling with Winter colds.

Family Day in Seattle

We had so many loved ones from out of town here for the wedding. So the day after we decided to head to Seattle for some fun time. first Lunch at red robin on the water front then the Great Wheel. I'm not sure I'm a fan of this one, but it was worth it to spend the time with my family. then we "rode the duck" this was absolutely FUN FUN FUN, but oh so cold :)

Wedding Shower: night out with the ladies

My sweet and awesome friend decided I needed a night out. I happily agreed. We started off with a fun evening of Pedicures and LOTS and LOTS of giggling. we then went to have some yummy Italian dinner.

Wedding

So about 1 1/2 months ago I married my best friend. We had a wonderful ceremony surrounded by friends and family, and a reception full of food and good times. I'm so glad its over though and we were able to move on to "real" life.

ENGAGED!

I'm engaged! I just want to shot from the roof top.
We're planning a October 11th wedding this year. (10-11-12)
Nothing fancy, just a justice of the Peace. I think we'll be having a little get together one of the weekends afterwards.
not a lot of details yet, but just lots of happiness for now :)
