Big Life Decisions...

So yeah... I was gonna post something on this blog, but I decided it was too private to be put on here. But then again, who reads this, eh?

The Cabin


Well, we just got back from the cabin. And it was a ton of fun. Emily, Jessie, and I drove up and met the rest of the peeps (the parents, whit, wils, and caitlin) yesterday at about 1:00. Then, we rested and laid down and played super mario brothers! It was really relaxing and really lazy. But it was exactly what I needed, because this week has been pretty busy and it was exactly what Em needed because she's been dancing this whole week. (AND, she danced for like 7 hours on Saturday, so she needed some rest) Then, we ate spaghetti and sat on the couch while Whitney chose a movie for us to watch. It was between My Fair Lady and Despereaux. Whitney ultimately ended up picking Despereaux and we all hated it. It was terrible. Then, we sat on the couches and had one of the Simons Family's famous "Memory Nights." It was pretty epic. We told stories for about 2 hours. I hope we didn't freak the rest of the peeps out. Then we all were super tired and we slept. I slept in my bed and it was nice and cozy. (thanks to the heating blanket) Then, we woke up and ate a delicious pancake breakfast and got ready to play. We started out by snowmobiling, and Em, Jessie, and I each took a snowmobile out and it was so much fun! I love snowmobiling! It's reminds me of jet-skiing, but snowmobiles have more control. :) I love jet-skiing. I've only ever been once. And it was in San Diego and it was stormy and choppy. But, it was fun. Anyway, we came back from snowmobiling and then we ate really good food. (grilled ham and cheese sandwiches with soup) Then, my parents wanted us to go snowshoeing, but Em and I were pretty tired, but we went nonetheless. It was pretty frustrating at the beginning, but it's hard to stay frustrated when you have a really cute girlfriend who knows exactly how I'm feeling and exactly what I need. She's the best. Then, we got packed up and left. It was a good cabin experience. I really needed a little break and I've been feeling a need to get up to the cabin. Here's a picture of the cabin, from a while ago, but I just thought I'd show you (anyone whose life is so boring that they feel they need to read this crap) that the cabin does, in fact, exist.
Anyway, I kinda feel like I need something in my life. Something's missing. Anyone have suggestions?

Basketball

I just played basketball. Not very well, but I still played. I made a handful of buckets. Maybe 8 points? 10? I'm not sure. But life is still good. And just so ya'll know, I love 2 things: comments, and little updates like these. Peace.

Here goes the revamp!


Well, I've decided it's about time I start writing on my blog again. This desire began when at Emily's parents' house on Christmas Eve. Rachel and Mary (Emily's nieces) were talking about blogs and how younger folks were getting into blogging. Then, throughout the past few weeks, I've seen different "signs", if you will, that pointed me to the resurrection of my blog.
I'm going to change the name. The Life...... was a good name for the first attempt, but I've decided I'm going to call it "The Good Life!" to reflect my New Year's Resolutions. I'm excited about this year.
Many good things are happening in "The Good Life!" of Robbie. Probably of most importance is my sweetheart and best friend, Emily. We've now been dating for 5 months and things could not be going any better! I am absolutely in Love with her. I'm pretty sure things are moving towards "permanency"! :)

Anyway, I'm not even sure who has or who will in the future read this blog. I'm fine with that. I'd rather not have my personal life splashed across Facebook. Ha ha... Even if I did splash said personal life across facebook, no one would read it, so it doesn't matter. Anyway, life is good! I'm very blessed and I have an amazing family, a beautiful girlfriend, and I'm still able to walk!

Basketball

Hey, wow it's been a long time since i've blogged and i think it's time to update whoever reads this! Okay.... yeah, it's titled basketball, but it's about a lot more than that! But, basketball is what i said, so basketball is where i'll start! So, as i may have mentioned previously, we started an intramural basketball team! It's been so great to get the exercise and it's been fun to play with a bunch of friends! (and cousins who are just as good as friends) We're currently 0-2, but we have a good excuse, don't worry! haha! no, but we have only had 5 guys come to each basketball game.... it's really too bad, but oh well! I really like the playing time because we play 2-20 minute halves and it's the bomb.com! I love it!
Life is good... I keep telling people that I'm 110% single... and i am, but i wouldn't mind if i found a cute girl to start hanging with... I'm kinda starting to miss the whole dating thing... oh well! I'm not directly looking for it to come, so that means it should be coming shortly, right? :) Anyway, I'll let you all (i talk like there are millions of peeps reading this... i doubt this even gets read...) how our next game goes! I bet we'll win!

Swimming!!!

Today I went swimming! It was so awesome! I woke up at 6:00 and me and my comrade, Jake, went swimming at the Richards Building! It was amazing! I forgot how much I really enjoy swimming! I could only think of two improvements: 1. Goggles... It's hard to swim when you can't see anything or where you're going, and 2. I'm going to change into my suit there... I totally just wore my suit there and afterwards, i was pretty chilly! (to say the least!) That's when heated seats come in handy! Anyway, I didn't want to write for too long, so that's the news! Thanks for everything, friends! And you should come swimming with us...
