Ryan and I knew we were going to go somewhere for our anniversary weekend, but the question was where? After lots of discussion, we discovered the Arkansas Razorbacks...Ryan went to U of AK in '93...were playing Auburn that weekend, and that was it! Reservations were made and tickets bought! I might not be the most typical girl because I love watching sports...especially football...at least teams I actually care about...maybe that's why God gave me so many boys...so this getaway is absolutely perfect for us. Ryan and I both arranged to have the day off Friday, thus after we drop the boys at their respective schools, hubby and I are hittin' the road! I cannot wait to see the Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium, the dorm where Ryan lived as a young college kid, the Kappa Alpha frat house he belonged to, the bricks, on which some of his (alumni) family member's names are written, on the lawn of Old Main, the historic U of AK campus, and all the excitement that only a college campus in the fall can embody!
On a side note...the man, David Walston, Ryan bought the tickets from for the big game just so happens to be the former college roommate and teammate of Jerry Jones! No kidding! They played together at U of AK and are still great friends! In fact, he spent last Saturday in the suite with Jones for the Southwest Classic (Arkansas vs. Texas A&M)!
Here's a pic of them on the 1962 Sugar Bowl Team!
Mr. Walston was so great, and put us on the list to have access to the Razorback "A" Club during the game!
I am so excited!!!
You know what makes this trip even better.......Check out the little diddies Ryan bought me........
