This past week my 15 year-old, Rebecca, and I went down to the new DPS Super-Center (Department of Public Safety) in order to get her a Learners Permit to drive! We decided that the best way to do driver’s ed with our busy schedule is to do the parent taught course… So far, there have been some serious ups and downs. I think B [...]

Start the Summer Underwater!
End of May we went over the the Blake’s House for some summer BBQ. Blake just picked up Cheeto. Cheeto was the cow that Blake bought at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. He picked up the meat from the processor and invited us over for some food, beer, and fun.
Great times with friends and family. Trena tried out her Lifeproof [...]
Magnolia Lady Bulldog Soccer
What a ride our oldest daughter, Rebecca, has taken us on this school year! As many of you know, Becca is a freshman at Magnolia High School. She has played soccer since she was a wee-child and competitively played for many years with a select club. The club had it’s ups and downs but one thing you can sure say is it created a great [...]
The blog
Trena and I were sitting at a restaurant recently and talking about what we did last April. We both could not remember. I had the great idea to look on my phone at this blog.

I knew she had th [...]

One of my many traditions is to read a great email from my father on the days the follow Christma [...]
Buffett is Christmas Day Sensation
65 years ago yesterday. Christmas Day… Jimmy Buffett was born. A Christmas doesn’t go by when I don’t hear the Christmas CD by Buffett going in my wife’s SUV. She absolutely loves Buffett. Run, Run Rodulf…
Jimmy hasn’t had a hit record in 20 years and he is worth over 400 million. Think about that. [...]
September, October and November
Where did the past three months go?
Funny, how I start blogging and then just get slap-ass tired of it. Walk away for a period of time.
During this time period we have had major changes to our lives. I’ll try and update the blog on all the fun we have had with the start of high school for my oldest daughter. [...]
July 2012 Summer Trip
We returned from a week trip that took us to Memphis TN, Milan TN, Nashville TN, and back to Helena AR. Was my only vacation time this summer due to working for Student Services. (which was unexpected but fun). The trip was set up to spend a night in Memphis so we could take the girls to Beale Street. When then stayed the night at the Spe [...]
