We ended up spending a very enjoyable afternoon, evening, night, and morning with the Wamsley family. Trip is a world renowned bass player whom Matt toured with for a few years before our recent move. Trip and his wife Sarun have a wonderful son, Xander, who is living proof that God is great. Xander was born three years ago at 24 weeks and change and tipped the scales at 16 oz. It's been a long road for the whole family but Xander is progressing with amazing speed and before long you'll never guess he had such a rough start.
Trip, like we said, is one of the finest bass players in the world as well as a strong Christian and it is a real privilege to know him. He recently finished a tour with Caedmon's Call and is about to release his fourth solo CD (which contains a track that Matt played on!). Please, please, please, check out his website (www.tripwamsley.com) or his myspace page (http://myspace.com/tripwamsley)
The weekend was SUPPOSED to include some drop-in visits on more of Matt's touring buddies, but ironically, after six weeks in Central America, Heidi's stomach picked this past weekend to act up and we ended up just trying to get back to Houston in one piece! (We did leave a Cinco Quetzal note in Big T's casino - a near miss, unfortunately) Sorry guys, we'll definitely catch up next time.
Anyway, here are a few pics of Xander, Sarun, Trip, and Matt solving the world's problems. Oh, and a link to a movie where Trip and Xander are enjoying a little "father-son rock-out" moment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9mESQTD1fY
