One year later....

Exactly one year ago yesterday (Sept. 7th), we started this chapter and arrived in Houston. Can you believe it? Time flies! But, it's been a fun, exciting year for the Clayton's. New city, new jobs, new friends, new lives. We're focused on healthy living and a happy marriage. We have a long list of goals to accomplish in the coming years, but we're only focusing on what makes us happy. Staying positive and enjoying life is our main priority right now -- and I must admit, it feels pretty dang good!


Much love,

Summer Family Time

Last month, we were fortunate enough to take time off from work and enjoy some family time in Texas. Considering the weather here in August, outside activities were somewhat limited, unless of course, there was water included! A few highlights in Houston included the world's best fajitas at Lupe Tortilla, Sweet cupcakes at City Centre and a Dynamo game.

Check out our view at the game! 




I had never been to a professional soccer game, so I didn't know what to expect. The high-energy atmosphere provided constant entertainment, topped off with a Dynamo win! 

The rest of vacation was spent beach- or pool-side on Galveston Island - which by the way, if you are ever heading down this way, check out VRBO.com - super easy way to book vacation rentals (even pet friendly ones!). 

Since Rosco and Marley were able to make the trip with us, they were able to take their first trip to the beach. They LOVED it! :-)






We enjoyed our little getaway and had a great time with family. Being so far away from our family and friends, it was nice to have a piece of "home" come to us! :-) 



Much love,
