happy for him.

Football has played a significant part in my boyfriends life for a very long time. When I started dating him in highschool, I wasn't able to make much of his games due to my volleyball schedule.. but I would always hear from my friends who were there how good Robb did. I never doubted him once to be a bad player, but it did make me sad that I never really got to see him play. Even though I was never there, he would text me just before the game started and right after it ended. Sometimes he would even text me during halftime, just to say a quick "I love you" before going back in :) but really, football was just something he loved to do. We never really thought he would go far with it... as bad as that sounds. Not that we doubted it, but it was just out of our minds.

He had made plans to go to Snow College and play for 2 years then just be done. But after red-shirting for the first year, he spent that next summer busting his butt in the weight room and doing workouts everyday. I admit, I was a little jealous that Robb was spending time with the weights more than he was with me... Lol. But I got over it once I saw how big his muscles were getting. Lol. Jk ;) I could just tell he was real serious about improving his game on the field. And all that hard work definitely paid off :)


Today, my handsome boyfriend (verbally) committed to the University of Arkansas :) He will be signing the letter of intent next week to make his committment official and I can't tell you how excited I am for him!! :) Words definitely can't describe how proud and how happy I am for him that he's made it this far in his football career. Robb has worked so hard the passed few years and I don't think anyone else deserves this opportunity more then he does. With the support of his family keeping him motivated he has come such a long way... Most people say that everything happens for a reason, and for whatever reason that THIS is happening, I know it's for a good purpose :) for both me, and him.


How bout them razorbacks!? LOL :)
