We are very excited to have the honor of purchasing one of Clayton's most beautiful and historic homes! The Morning Glory Inn has been a staple within the Clayton community and our hope is to carry on the tradition that Michael & Betsy Grannis has created and carried on for over 20 years.
The name McWade's Inn is in honor of my mother Mary McWade, whose father was born in County Longford in Ireland. The Tree of Life symbolizes how all of our families' roots run deep and sometimes intertwine and sometimes return to their roots, which is what some of our children have decided to do! We now have 2 children and six grandchildren living in County Antrim and it's given us such a love and appreciation for this beautiful country! Both the North and the South!
We are planning on having our Grand opening and announcing more plans for this beautiful home in mid-April! Follow our page for more updates! McWades Inn

We are reaching out to our Facebook family in a last minute effort to raise some money this weekend for Tunnel to Towers and a beautiful couple who had their wedding scheduled for Saturday 9/11/2021 but due to tragic circumstances had to cancel.

We will be opening our doors to the public and having the bar open from 2:00 pm -9:00 pm to raise money for Tunnel to Towers and our bride & groom who had to cancel their wedding a second time due to COVID and now this tragedy. We appreciate all who come and God bless you all!

We’re hoping and praying that everyone is staying safe and keeping they’re sanity. We wanted to see what the interest would be for anyone out there to order 1/2 trays of family size meals starting next week. We currently don’t have any product on hand so we wanted to get a good feel for the public’s interest before ordering food from our vendor. We would create a menu on Sundays with the daily choices (possibly 2-3 options per day). We would need to take payment with the order along with a 48 notice but we would guarantee pick up at a specific time with a promise of absolute quality and freshness. Just trying to see what the response is before we put this in motion. We have employees who have been effected by this as well and who would be happy to service you through either drive up or delivery. We can also sell packaged goods so a tasty bottle of wine would pair nicely with our Mama’s Sunday sauce over Rigatoni or a tray of Chicken Parmesan! We appreciate any comments or suggestions as none of us have ever been through anything like this! Thank you!

Claire's train was absolutely stunning! We made sure to make time in the gorgeous reception area to snap some bridal portraits that showed it off.

Are you planning on having a train on your wedding dress?

Claire & Greg gave all of their guests bubbles for their exit and I could not have loved it more! They created such a unique send-off for the couple and I loved the effect they had on their pictures.

Other than a couple more 2nd shooting gigs, I shot my last wedding for 2021 this past Saturday. I want to say thank you to everyone that trusted me with taking such important photos for them this year! It really is the highest honor to be able to do what I do. It's been a wild ride and I can't wait for what 2022 holds.

Especially a big thanks to Taylor & Cam for helping end my 2021 season with a bang!

Congratulations Bea and John on 50 Wedded Years! Celebration at Brick & Mortar Events in Downtown - Sunday, November 28th, 2021…
Some pics from our day! We had such an amazing time and loved every minute of it! Food and drink were on point and the service was excellent! We felt so taken care of and were stress free the entire day. Definitely recommended to all our friends.
On April 20, 2001 at 9:41 p.m., exactly 20 years ago today, the call came in that Helping Hand Mission located at 217 E. Main St. had caught fire.

“I remember seeing the red glow coming from Main Street as I drove into Town that night.” Chief Lee Barbee said.

Fire Marshal Tony Atkinson echoed that memory, “I remember that glow. I was sitting at home watching TV when the radio traffic picked up. Driving into Town, all you could see was the red glow coming from Main Street.”

The ‘Main Street Fire’ as it has been called over the years, was one of the biggest in the modern history of Clayton.

One hundred firefighters from eight different departments responded with 10 engines and two ladder trucks.

“The radio traffic that night was abundant. I remember calling in mutual aid from neighboring departments. A ladder truck from Smithfield was flowing water within 18 minutes from the time I called for help- that is remarkably fast.” Barbee said.

“There were two LP gas tanks at the rear of the building. By the time I got there they were shooting 30-foot flames straight up into the air.” Atkinson recalled.

Firefighters are taught to ‘set up to protect the block’; to do everything they can to contain the fire and stop it from spreading into neighboring buildings, and that night that is what they did. The two neighboring businesses, Elmore Furniture and Carroll’s TV and Appliance, were largely spared. Each only received minor damage.

“The firemen did a great job. They came in with tarps and covered furniture and moved things away from the wall.” William Elmore, owner of Elmore Furniture said at the time of the fire.

Wade Carroll, owner of Carroll’s TV and appliance, said back then that he was amazed at how little damage there was. “There’s very little smoke or water damage. Hardly any water got in there. That surprised me.”

The Town Manager at the time, Steve Biggs, came Downtown to brief the media that night. There were television crews from all the local stations.

Many local residents and Downtown business owners saw the fire on the 11 p.m. newscast and came into Town to watch. Firefighters were able to go into many businesses to recover documents and computers, just in case the fire did spread. It was 3 a.m. before the fire was under control.

The Clayton Police Department, SBI, ATF, and the county Fire Marshall Office spent many months investigating the fire. It started on the back porch where an old sofa, clothing, and other items were piled up. However, the exact cause was never determined.

At the time of the fire, Helping Hand Mission had been in that building for 10 years. The Helping Hand Mission is an organization that assist families in need with food, clothing, furniture, and shelter. While they still operate in the Raleigh area, they never did rebuild in Clayton. The front brick wall of the building was saved. However, the back wall had to be taken down and was rebuilt.

The building made a remarkable comeback and is the current home of Brick & Mortar Events.

Thanksgiving Eve at the office is actually THANKSGIVING DAY. And our tradition is to celebrate together.

Even though celebrating together looks a little different this year, we were still able to deliver boxed Thanksgiving lunches to our field people and celebrate them as well as a good year for all of our companies! Thankful for our family. 🙌🏼🦃
