A few weeks ago I surprised my brother by flying home for the weekend to in Connecticut for his Eagle Project. It was a huge undertaking that had been in the planning for over a year (meaning his project, not my trip home). He loves to sing and is also a very patriotic young man so he decided to make something happen that ended up being incredible!!! He organized a Patriotic Choral Concert comprising of two different church choirs in the community and various soloists from around the state that he knew from church. He made the whole event a food drive, asking people to bring 5 cans of food per person and donated it all the Shoreline Soup Kitchens. It was an incredible success and is still going on as money from businesses who want to donate to his cause keeps trickling in. Even though I was only home for about 36 hours, I am so glad I went. I love you, bud!

Despite the craziness of the night, Clayton was still able to sing in the choir!
How handsome he is! Hands off girls, he's only 15!
