Why I Quit Going to Elder's Quorum Parties

So in our church the men of the Elder's Quorum diligently plan these parties to "bond in manly ways"  called Elder Quorum Parties.  I lovingly attend these get togethers so I can bond with other women over the fact that our husbands will always be 14 years old.  They invite their family members because they believe in family togetherness . . .or because they would feel ridiculous cheering for themselves while boxing each other in huge 15 lb boxing gloves in a bouncy house. . . .or maybe because they think it's really funny to sign their wives up to fight each other in what they hope will be some sassy sexy version of girl fighting. . .let's just say, Scott will be doing lots of apologizing and chores for forcing me into that blasted ring . . .and I swear if that video of me pretending to box hits the internet there will be heads rolling!  Here's something I did learn. . .my husband can do a back flip . . .literally, who knew . . .hmmm 13 years later he's still full of surprises.

P.S. Dear Elder's Quorum President,
The wives of your Quorum members would like a real family activity that doesn't include bouncy houses, boxing, pizza, or embarrassing wives. . .I'm giving you one last shot!

Here's Scott and Avonleah boxing. . .notice how those gloves are as big as she is!  What a cutie!  Sorry it's so shaky but I was still recovering from my "fight"
