And we are off...

Well, we finally decided we needed to join the blogging ranks. After finding some friends on here we made up our minds that we needed to do a better job of keeping in touch with those we see every day and those we have not seen in quite some time (which is a shame!!!). Let's start with the basics....roll call!!!!!

Overview

We live in Keller, TX which is a suburb right outside the D/FW metroplex. We moved into our house out here in December 2006 and love being "away" from everything. We have 3 studly boys...Corbin who is 4, Callen who is 2.5 and Cade who is 1. Now onto more specifics.

Chris Clayton

Chris is a very busy man these days. Since 2000 Chris has been traveling leading worship for various youth and college events. His travels have taken him all over including such places as Alaska and India. Chris has a great band that travels with him. He has released 2 CD's and is currently writing for a new CD that will come out in May 2008. In addition to traveling, Chris also works as a Christian record producer. He has worked with many independent Christian artists along with some national artists like Shane and Shane, Chris Tomlin, Robbie Seay Band and Big Daddy Weave. Chris has a recording studio in our home which makes for fun times when clients are over. If that were not enough, Chris is also part time at our church, 121 Community Church as the Worship/Creative Arts Assistant. He gets to work along aside his mentor in the ministry, David Parker who is our worship leader. You can read more about Chris' endeavors at:






Kara Clayton

Kara is also busy...but a different kinda of busy. She is a stay at home mom to our three boys. That's a full time job in itself!!! She is always busy with church events, hanging out with friends and even does childcare at the church some. Believe it or not, she has found time to start her own business called Nifty Thrifty Designs. If you are into custom made picture frames, boutique apparel or custom cakes, then she is the gal for you. She is truly the best mommy ever and deserves way more than she gets in the appreciation dept.


Corbin, Callen and Cade Clayton

Each one has their own personality. Corbin is 4 and is very much into the movie "Cars". He is all about "Lightning McQueen". He recently got his first bike from his Nanna-Dee and G-Daddy and yes...it was a "Cars" bike. He is very smart (sometimes too smart) and is so looking forward to when he can go to school...I think because he wants to play basketball. He is following in his dad's footsteps by taking an interest in music...THIS BOY CAN DRUM! We will post a video later. Callen is 2.5 and is the complete opposite of Corbin. While Corbin is more reserved, Callen is the dare-devil. He is very energetic and is always up to something. We keep a close watch on this kid. His energy though is contagious. He loves everything Corbin loves right now...and his favorite color is yellow. Cade is our little man. He just turned 1 and is going on 15....crazy how time flies. He is our blonde hair, blue eyed child. He will be a ladies man for sure. Cade loves to dance to music and is all about keeping up with his brothers even though they are a little more fast paced than he. I think walking is in the near future.


Well, there you have it...our journey begins. Hang on...we move fast... :-)
