Brooke Cycle

This is Brookes favorite part of the dishes.  She is the pre-scrub cycle part of the dishwasher.  Most of the time she does a better job than the dishwasher :( which is really getting on my nerves.  Yesterday I had to run the same load twice to get it cleaned, which was on the heavy wash cycle.  I think it is only like 4 years old.  Says alot about Maytag right.

Friends Valentines Celebration

Thanks to our guys, my friends Ginger, Debbie & I had a special Valentines Day celebration.  They sent us out for manicures & pedicures after Church, and then they prepared a special dinner for us at Chuck & Debbies house.  We started out with appretizers, bacon wrapped stuffed dates, and toasted baggettes with pesto.  It was so awesome, then they prepared grilled steak, chicken & salmon, with grilled vegetables, bread.  Don made a banana cream pie, and Debbie had made chocolate pudding.  Everything was so wonderful.  The guys also made homemade valentines as their testaments of love to us.  They were all so creative.  They are the best, thank you Vernon, Don & Chuck for making such a special day for us.  You do know this is going to have to be an annual thing right?

So Sorry This Is So Late

I can't believe it has almost been a year since my last post, I am so sorry. I need to get back to blogging, I really miss it. It has been a busy year, with lots going on in our Family, some really great news, some not so great, but thats life.

I will try to be better in 2011 at blogging. Facebook has taken up alot of my time, but not everybody has a Facebook account, and Facebook doesn't allow me to be creative either.

Stay tuned for coming attractions in the Elledge Family. See you soon!

Grand Kids

Here are some pictures of the boys from our Christmas celebration. Joy & Mason put together a Lego airplane, he was so proud of it. The boys are getting so big, and are such beautiful blessings to us. Enjoy!

Happy 2010

Wishing our wonderful family and friends the most blessed year in 2010. Wishing everyone peace, great health, much prosperity, and much love this year. I am greatful for the life that our God has blessed me with, there are many new things on the horizon this year and I am sure that this is going to be our best year yet.

I am anxious to see what our God has in store for our family this year, an upcoming wedding, our beautiful Grandsons, continued great health and a loving family. Thank you God for all my beautiful blessings.

Happy New Year everybody. May your blessings be abundant in 2010.

I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas!

I finally got my wish for a white Christmas in Texas! It started snowing this afternoon, and although it is a trace, it is still snow.

Santa's House

We took Mason & David to see Santa's part time home in Rowlett this evening, although we didn't get to see the jolly old elf, the boys were excited, and Mason was estatic to be standing in front of Santa Claus' house. We had such a good time looking at lights that evening.

You can tell by that wide eyed wonder in a Masons eyes David didn't have a clue, he just liked the lights.

We went to the square in downtown Garland and walked around and took some pictures of them in front of the tree.
