As many of you already know, a cause very close to my heart is called CureDuchenne, a national nonprofit that raises awareness and funds to find a cure for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

The waning hours of 2012 are upon us and, in wrappin’ up this current chapter of life, I went back through my hundreds, if not thousands, of photos from the the past 12 months and confirmed what an excellent year it’s really been.

Gotta be honest, if you had told me when I moved back to Texas in 2008 that I would, one day, be spending a Saturday afternoon out at Willie Nelson’s ranch with his “family,” closest friends and fellow musicians, I’da said you’re out of your mind. Well, funny how this amazing ride, we call life, […]
