How did you and Zach meet? We actually grew up in small West Texas towns 8 miles from each other yet never met until after college. Zach’s brother and sister-in-law (lifelong friends of mine) introduced us one night in Lubbock after a big Texas Tech/A&M game and the rest is history.
Why the name Bear Clayton? Zach is a football fanatic & graduated from Texas A&M, thus making him a big fan of Bear Bryant. We always loved the name Bear because of its simplicity yet uniqueness. Clayton is my grandpa’s name who passed away in March of 2011. We miss him every day yet find peace in knowing that he watches over our little Bear.

Ryan is in his first year at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Zach has two brothers, Cole & Jake, and a little sister, Katy.

What are your hobbies outside of blogging? I enjoy reading, singing, writing, taking long walks, going to concerts, baking, playing golf, shopping, and hanging out with my boys.
