Weekend with Family

By Trey ⋅ March 10, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Jackie and I packed up Addison and headed to see Mom, Dad, Paul, Tara and Ashlyn this past weekend. We always love getting the girls together and getting to spend some time with our family. Here are some pics we took of the girls.

Addison Gets Earrings

By Trey ⋅ March 10, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

A few weeks ago we took Addison to get earrings. Jackie thought it better to do it early on before she started pulling at her ears and so she would never remember having it done. Apparently she had her ears pierced when she was around 2 years old, and they stayed infected due to her [...]

Trey and Jackie Head to Nashville for the Killers Concert

By Trey ⋅ February 2, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Jackie has wanted to see the Killers in concert for a long time now. I was able to get ahold of some tickets on stubhub.com for their show in Nashville on Jan 31 at the Grand Ole Opry.
I decided to surprise Jackie with the trip, and I originally planned to load her in the car [...]

For all my Louisiana Relatives

By Trey ⋅ December 2, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

I went to see the Arkansas Razorbacks take on the LSU Tigers at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock. To all my Louisiana relatives – that’s two years in a row! The Razorbacks posted a huge come-back win 31-30 over the Tigers. I was sitting in the corner right next to the end zone when [...]

Labor Day Weekend in Tunica

By Trey ⋅ September 8, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

Jackie and I decided to take one more trip before Addison gets here. We figure we won’t be doing ANYTHING for a long time after that. We packed our bags and headed to Tunica, MS to stay over the Labor Day weekend at Sam’s Town casino. While we were there, we hit the outlet malls [...]

Vacation in Colorado

By Trey ⋅ August 13, 2008 ⋅ One comment

We were able to go to Colorado again this year to visit Jackie’s family. The girls, Jordyn and Karlee, were gearing up for school since they only had a couple of weeks left of their summer vacation. It was time to buy school supplies and clothes and get out of that habit of sleeping till [...]

Tyler Bend on the Buffalo River

By Trey ⋅ June 9, 2008 ⋅ 3 comments

We went to Tyler Bend yesterday – a spot on the Buffalo River. We wanted to grill some hot dogs, maybe do a bit of fishing, and let Jackie’s cousins go swimming and floating. I’ve always gone to the Spring River so I didn’t know anything about the Buffalo. One of our good friends is [...]

Camping on Lake Nimrod

By Trey ⋅ May 16, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

Jackie and I went to Lake Nimrod for camping and fishing with her family. I had never even heard of that lake, but it was surprisingly nice and pretty large, too. It’s located about 45 miles from our house so the drive was nice and easy. It has 5 campgrounds, but only 2 of them [...]

Hiking at Petit Jean

By Trey ⋅ February 10, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

The weather has warmed up a bit here – in the 50s and 60s lately. We wanted to get out of the house and get some fresh air so we decided to go to Petit Jean State Park for hiking and some lunch. Jackie’s mom also wanted to go so we all piled [...]

The Arkansas Queen

By Trey ⋅ June 13, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Jackie’s family was in from Denver, CO so we decided to give them a bit of a tour of Little Rock aboard the Arkansas Queen. I’ve lived in this area since 1999, but I’d never had the Arkansas Queen experience. The Arkansas Queen is a riverboat that gives two hour tours of the [...]
