Well, the big news is after many years abroad (as in outside the great state of Texas), I am finally moving back to the homeland.  A couple of weeks ago, I accepted a job offer within my current company that will take me to Dallas.  This is something I’ve been working toward off-and-on for the last few years.  New England has been nice, and I’ve made some great and unforgettable friends here, but family is something that is important to me and the distance between New England and Texas just seems to get greater year after year.

So for the next few weeks, I’ll be planning, packing, and enjoying time with friends.  I’m excited, but I’ve got a tear or two as well.

So long New England, its been real.  But I’m not going to miss your winters.

Ok, so I’m only a month or so late with this post.  Considering how often I update this website, that’s pretty darn quick.  2013 was a good year, especially in October.  That month saw the arrival of my newest little buddy, Colt Sage Waltrip, and my parents celebrating their 35th year of wedded bliss… in the hospital, cooing over Colt.

So here’s to 2013, and lets hope that the rest of 2014 goes well too!

On Wednesday of last week, Colt Sage Waltrip was born to Chris and Samantha in Corpus Christi, Texas.  Colt is a few weeks premature and is currently in the NICU.  The doctors and nurses say he’s doing great and will hopefully be able to go home in sometime this week.

I can’t wait to meet Nephew #2 when I go home at Thanksgiving!

My nephew Cody is fearless.  He climbs up on nearly everything (including the roof of the house on occasion), he eats nearly anything you put in front of him, and he hasn’t met an animal that isn’t a friend.  Not to mention that when we go out to the ranch and shoot guns, he wants to shoot anything we’re shooting with too.
