The best part was the Christmas Eve Blizzard. The airport reported 13 inches of snow fell. That was a new record for OKC. Although it was not welcome by some, we &lt;strong&gt;loved&lt;/strong&gt; it!!! Christmas day, after the storm had passed, we got out and Aiden did some sledding down the driveway and made quite a few snow angels. He had the most fun doing the snow angels and stomping around the in snow.

Shawn was able to come home early from work which was nice. These last for years have been the most amazing time of my life. Together Shawn and I have done things that I never in my life thought I would do. An example being, this last Sunday I went to the track and raced my Trans Am for the first time ever. I ran a 14.03 at 103 mph in the 1/4 mile. Which I had a great time doing! I cant wait to see what the future has in store for us as we get older, but I know that whatever life brings us it will be amazing because I will be with my Best Friend! The picture is of the dozen roses Shawn bought for me and the newest addition to the Ellington family, a Yorkie named Kipper, weighing in a just under 1lb at 7 weeks old.  I bought us tickets to go see the Trans Siberian &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Orchestra&lt;/span&gt; on Sunday so we will have an afternoon/evening out just the two of us!

The Lions are a much improved team as compared to the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;beginning&lt;/span&gt; of the season. The last couple of games they pretty much dominated their &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;opponents&lt;/span&gt;. The YMCA &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;doesn't&lt;/span&gt; keep score at this age, but my husband Shawn does! :) He always knew what the score was throughout the season and always let us know who was winning. This was a great learning experience for our family as a whole!

Hopefully I can get some good pictures of his game this weekend. I always seem to forget the camera, or when I have taken it the battery's are dead. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-2691266425328172910?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/2691266425328172910/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=2691266425328172910' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/2691266425328172910'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/2691266425328172910'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/10/wow-its-been-little-bit.html' title='WOW! its been a little bit.'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Suhly9gF_EI/AAAAAAAAAXs/dcUFgD48I7M/s72-c/kiss.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-4143647655101803217</id><published>2009-08-12T08:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-12T08:29:46.299-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Texas Tech Spirit????</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SoLeSjbM4PI/AAAAAAAAAXU/d_tTSPKq0Co/s1600-h/lake+008.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369098116107395314" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SoLeSjbM4PI/AAAAAAAAAXU/d_tTSPKq0Co/s400/lake+008.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;We went to the lake this last weekend, and when I was looking through the pictures I noticed this one.

Aiden and I rode with my parents to Amarillo, and Shawn met us there by coming down from Beaver Oklahoma where he is currently working. We were all very excited because my parents were taking everyone to the play "Texas". Growing up I remember this play very clearly. We did not attend the play every summer growing up, but probably every few summers. I was really looking forward to seeing it again! However as the play progressed there were many changes to the storyline, and not really changes for the better in my opinion. You can't change tradition, and after 44 years of putting the play on I don't see why someone would come along and tweak it. But, that's just my opinion. Shawn says it's easier to remember something better than what it was when you were growing up. However, I know it was better, I just wished I could have shared that same experience that I had growing up in the Texas Panhandle with my family now. Oh well, we still had a great time hanging out with my parents and my brothers family and really when it comes down to it, that is all that matters. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-7875411337713196762?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/7875411337713196762/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=7875411337713196762' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/7875411337713196762'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/7875411337713196762'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/08/palo-duro-canyon.html' title='The Palo Duro Canyon'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Snxi2RDyRkI/AAAAAAAAAWk/8_RGN9FWQ3o/s72-c/DSC00725.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-4480669390232431474</id><published>2009-07-21T16:14:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-22T14:53:22.173-07:00</updated><title type='text'>before and after</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SmeKIZxRRXI/AAAAAAAAAV0/-KEH5twi2Jo/s1600-h/Master+1.jpg.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361405758368990578" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SmeKIZxRRXI/AAAAAAAAAV0/-KEH5twi2Jo/s400/Master+1.jpg.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Shawn and I have been working very hard getting our new house just the way we want it. We started working on it an hour after we signed the papers. It has taken a bit, but we have about got it done. The only things we are lacking is to finish painting the Master Bath and the Guest Bedroom and replacing some of the fixtures (we HATE brass!). As you can see we started with BLUE carpet everywhere, even carpet in the bathrooms. We ripped it up and replaced it with a tile that looks like hardwood floors. It looks amazing! We used it throughout the house except for in the bedrooms, we just replaced the carpet with a more neutral color. Shawn, Aiden and I are all very happy at our new home. We love the peacefulness of it, away from everything else. Aiden loves riding his 4wheeler all over the property, and of course Shawn loves having all of his stuff in one place! As a realtor I love seeing the before and after of what people do to their homes, so I thought I would share ours with you! Also, the guest room will be finished soon, for anyone who wants to come visit us.......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Smdh68wZoZI/AAAAAAAAAVc/t_Xsapi1kmo/s1600-h/new+house+1313.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361361546777305490" style="FLOAT: right;

Although I will have to keep some of these pics around to remember when he DID want to do the dishes! We baked cookies this afternoon and Aiden was helping me clean up!

My brother cooked out an excellent dinner with steak and corn on the cob on the grill! We had a wonderful time hanging out with them and their neighbors and friends! &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SlIx3nHKpoI/AAAAAAAAATc/iZPEI0kxMs0/s1600-h/Pictures_008.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355397738358548098" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SlIx3nHKpoI/AAAAAAAAATc/iZPEI0kxMs0/s400/Pictures_008.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Before I left Amarillo on Wednesday I got to meet up with an old friend from high school and have lunch! I havent seen Jennifer in years, it was so awesome getting to catch up with her and hear the latest on Amarillo. Aiden made her laugh almost the entire lunch. It was a great time!

We just went to a little lake a couple miles down the road.  Aiden had a great time.  He only "hooked" his dad once while casting, but there were many close calls.  Our friend "Flip" was the only person to catch a fish, so he threw it back in and let Aiden reel it in so Aiden could "catch" a fish too.  However, Aiden would not touch it.  I can't blame him for that though, yuck!  He did touch the worms though, which suprised me. (double yuck)  It was a little warm but we all had a great time!  Now back to packing........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pHT4jcDI/AAAAAAAAARM/kmpgEAZMW7s/s1600-h/fish+010.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345677225773723698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pHT4jcDI/AAAAAAAAARM/kmpgEAZMW7s/s400/fish+010.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pHKeSxQI/AAAAAAAAARE/rg3FeAZHlfY/s1600-h/fish+002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345677223247660290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pHKeSxQI/AAAAAAAAARE/rg3FeAZHlfY/s400/fish+002.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pG0DQdzI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/Oc3xDCoAEMw/s1600-h/fish+005.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345677217228683058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pG0DQdzI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/Oc3xDCoAEMw/s400/fish+005.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pGs0utlI/AAAAAAAAAQ0/pH2HnPBgrU8/s1600-h/fish+003.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345677215288702546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pGs0utlI/AAAAAAAAAQ0/pH2HnPBgrU8/s400/fish+003.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-1978001685274166769?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/1978001685274166769/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=1978001685274166769' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1978001685274166769'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1978001685274166769'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/06/fishing.html' title='Fishing'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Si-pHT4jcDI/AAAAAAAAARM/kmpgEAZMW7s/s72-c/fish+010.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-2057511301100668336</id><published>2009-05-26T13:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-26T14:08:49.382-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Just In Time</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ShxWrgkQ-AI/AAAAAAAAAQs/gci6yPoJQRE/s1600-h/4wheeler.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340238563630970882" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ShxWrgkQ-AI/AAAAAAAAAQs/gci6yPoJQRE/s400/4wheeler.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;We bought Aiden this new "Real" ATV this weekend. It has all of the safety features you could ask for. I have a remote to hang onto that I can kill it if he starts not paying attention. It also has a strap so if he falls (or jumps off) it will kill it too. We have been letting him ride it in the backyard all weekend wearing his bicycle helmet. Most of the time I have been sitting on the back riding it with him around and around in a big circle. Today we went and bought him a full face helmet so if he bumped into anything he wouldn't break his teeth on the handle bars. We got home and he jumped on to ride with his new helmet. I took this picture and he took off. He took off a little fast and got going really fast down the hill, so I killed it with my remote. About the same time he turned and rolled his new 4 wheeler. He wasn't hurt, a little shaken up, but ok. The 4 wheeler is ok too after I flipped it back over. Needless to say it was a good thing we went and bought the new helmet this morning, it could have been worse! Anyway, he still loves his new helmet and 4wheeler, he has just decided not to ride it anymore today. I bet he's back on it tomorrow though!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-2057511301100668336?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/2057511301100668336/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=2057511301100668336' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/2057511301100668336'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/2057511301100668336'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/05/just-in-time.html' title='Just In Time'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ShxWrgkQ-AI/AAAAAAAAAQs/gci6yPoJQRE/s72-c/4wheeler.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-6219069276764734578</id><published>2009-05-25T16:21:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-25T16:33:08.693-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Memorial Day Fun!~</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Shspik-e9sI/AAAAAAAAAQk/JQX6scOEgzQ/s1600-h/lake+007.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5339907457195898562" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Shspik-e9sI/AAAAAAAAAQk/JQX6scOEgzQ/s400/lake+007.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Today we went to Fort Cobb Lake to have a little fun on our Memorial Day.  We were there about two hours when a storm came up.  We decided to wait it out in a cove instead of making a mad dash with everyone else to load up the boat.  We put the top up and it wasnt that bad.  While we waited we had a picnic.  Aiden had been waiting all day to have our ham sandwich picnic, he didnt care that it was pouring rain.  All in all even with the rain we had a pretty great time!  We hope you had a great Memorial Day too!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ShspieJu9cI/AAAAAAAAAQc/7neO7OJeit8/s1600-h/lake+005.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5339907455364036034" style="WIDTH: 400px;

We signed contracts to purchase a new home! I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; know exactly how I feel about it, first of all I am excited I think it will be a great move for us. However, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;I'm&lt;/span&gt; going to really miss our house that we live in now. I think its because we have put so much of ourselves into the house, and made it ours and, we just recently got it just the way we want it. Anyway, in the new house Shawn will have a shop and a 3 car garage so that is a BIG +++++++! We will finally have all of our cars and trailers and boat at our house as opposed to in storage or at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Shawn's&lt;/span&gt; dads house. This will be great for us I think! The house is just like ours that we live in now, as far as square footage and layout. The house sits on 2acres that are like your own private park! It is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;beautiful&lt;/span&gt;! I included some of the pictures from the house when it was listed.

Ok Kim nominated me for this a few weeks ago. The idea is that you have to list 7 things that people don't know about you and then you have to pass it on to 5 other people, so here it goes......&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. I HATE "do this and pass it on things" this includes text messages and emails. So I am very sorry to all of the people who send for example...."your my girl, pass this on to all your girls and back to me if I am one of your girls" This would explain why you never got your text or email back because it just makes me mad and I delete it. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. There are 5 baskets of Laundry in my bedroom. I hate doing laundry. All of Aidens laundry gets done and put up in his room. But as for Shawn and I~ it pretty much hangs out in the laundry basket 'till we wear it again, I wash it and it sits in the laundry basket~ over and over. I have been working on this problem though.... LOL. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. We have used the Beatles theme to name all of our dogs, thanks to Shawn. We have "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". We had "Lennon" for those two days. Now we have "Abbey Road". Shawn has named all of them, but each time their name suits them to a "t". &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. I put Aidens candy up that he gets for Halloween, Christmas, or any other holiday. Then Shawn and I eat it later. Don't get me wrong Aiden still gets plenty of candy, but too much is not a good thing. So if your ever at my house, its in the orange bucket in the top of the cabinet! =) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. When we were in high school. Kim and I planned to live in the same city, marry professional baseball players, and have sons the same age so they could play baseball together.....hmmm what ever happened? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6. I HAVE to watch the local news every night. This has been a "thing" of mine since I was young. However, it drives Shawn and Aiden crazy at night when we are watching TV, because they would much rather be watching something on the Speed Channel. But, because my husband loves me so much he usually gives in to me watching the news. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7. I have a Craigslist addiction. I have gotten several great deals off craigslist, but the problem is that I have an I- phone, so I am able to check it ALL THE TIME. It has become a little obsessive, but to get the great deals you have to check it all the time so your the first one to respond. LOL. That's what I tell Shawn, he just rolls his eyes. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;and #8 just because~ I have the best husband and son in the world. I dont know what I would do with out either of them. My husband works out of town 4 days a week to provide Aiden and I a very comfortable life. I miss him very much during the week, but I know that he does it all for Aiden and I, and I love him more everyday for that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So there are my 7 things about me...... now I don't know 5 other people with blogs so I'm just going to nominate, Jennifer H. and I will completely understand if she doesn't do this because this is one of those "do this and pass it on things" that I myself usually delete, but coming from Kim I had to do it or I would feel really bad. =) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-7507458983374475276?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/7507458983374475276/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=7507458983374475276' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/7507458983374475276'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/7507458983374475276'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/04/kreativ-blogger-award.html' title='Kreativ Blogger award'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SfYfGmoPv1I/AAAAAAAAALE/ebe7FifdMbY/s72-c/award.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-3540550374359765568</id><published>2009-04-26T16:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-26T16:19:19.263-07:00</updated><title type='text'>A Rainy Easter.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SfTrKoP0OyI/AAAAAAAAAK8/BOxco0fZyyg/s1600-h/easter+and+dogs+004.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329142826921114402" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SfTrKoP0OyI/AAAAAAAAAK8/BOxco0fZyyg/s400/easter+and+dogs+004.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This Easter it rained at our house, VERY disappointing.

Well we have a new addition to our family, another Old English Sheepdog, that we have named Abbey Road. We have had her for a couple of weeks but I was trying to make sure she was going to work out in our family before I introduced her to everyone! (Especially after Lennon, the dog we adopted that bit &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt;) Abbey Road came from a Lady in Lawton Oklahoma. She looks A LOT like our Lucy, however she has blue eyes instead of brown like Lucy. She is a very sweet dog. I believe she will be a great part of our family. She sort of levels out Lucy. Lucy is our "Worry Wart" dog and Abbey is content with whatever is going on. We have had a few "bumps in the road" with Abbey but I feel like everything will work out. She has some hip problems that we were not informed of when I went to get her. However she is not in any pain or discomfort as of right now. So we will manage it if anything new arises. She does have a funny hair style right now, I think her former owner did not know a lot about &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;OES&lt;/span&gt; and so she has her hair cut like a poodle! Hopefully its will grow out soon enough. Lucy's body is cut short right now too for the summer, however we leave her hair long around her face. So now we have "The Girls" as I like to call them! =)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-1348572816655323163?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/1348572816655323163/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=1348572816655323163' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1348572816655323163'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1348572816655323163'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/04/abbey-road.html' title='Abbey Road'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SfThFtRcadI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/dRRp2Zj6ADQ/s72-c/easter+and+dogs+009.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-1022554701973365703</id><published>2009-04-08T21:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-08T21:23:47.696-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Life.</title><content type='html'>This last week has been crazy around our house.  For those who didn't know we adopted a new dog last week.  Another Old English Sheepdog.  We had him for two days and loved him it was so much fun with two &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;OES&lt;/span&gt; around our house.  Then Sat morning &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; had just gotten up and startled Lennon while he was chewing on a bone and Lennon bit him on the face.  I am not making excuses for the dog because  there are none, but the dog was just a scared as &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; and I.  Shawn had the dog gone and to the pound, before my mom and I even left for the ER.  &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; didn't really like the nurses cleaning his face up and it was pretty sad.  They had to glue two small places on his cheek.  After everything was done and we left and came home, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; wanted to know when Lennon was coming home.  Its pretty hard explaining to a 3 year old that his new dog is not coming home.  We just had to tell him that he cant come home because he was not being a very nice dog.   Hopefully he will forget about him soon......Other than that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; is fine. His face is healing very well.  He doesn't like me putting the cream on it so I do that at night and in the morning while he is sleeping.  Its a good thing he is such a deep sleeper!  I will try to keep everyone posted a little better than I have been its just been pretty crazy.   Keep his little face in your prayers, he's a little self conscious about it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-1022554701973365703?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/1022554701973365703/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=1022554701973365703' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1022554701973365703'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1022554701973365703'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/04/life.html' title='Life.'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-7457870291020914570</id><published>2009-03-31T14:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-31T14:13:07.688-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SdKFGuDn76I/AAAAAAAAAJU/meSbFnLJBws/s1600-h/aidens+room.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319460460366917538" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SdKFGuDn76I/AAAAAAAAAJU/meSbFnLJBws/s400/aidens+room.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Aiden's room is finally COMPLETE~ We purchased this full size bed for Aiden months ago when he had outgrown his baby/day bed. Since then I have been everywhere I could think of in OKC, and could not find a headboard that I liked for a full size bed. So today, I went to Lowes bought some 3/4 inch particle board.  Then Walmart and bought the material.  Then this afternoon I made my own padded headboard! Its hard to see in the picture, but the material is actually black and white checkerboard like the racing flags. Anyway, Aiden really likes it. He calls it his race track bed. Oh, and our family is a little obsessed with Lighting McQueen. LOL! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-7457870291020914570?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/7457870291020914570/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=7457870291020914570' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/7457870291020914570'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/7457870291020914570'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/03/aidens-room-is-finally-complete-we.html' title=''/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SdKFGuDn76I/AAAAAAAAAJU/meSbFnLJBws/s72-c/aidens+room.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-4647649707301738066</id><published>2009-03-22T17:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-22T18:40:07.779-07:00</updated><title type='text'>PINKS ALL OUT</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Scbk8fK6XdI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Yt7QiqeMYwU/s1600-h/DSC00642.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeFiwt_LI/AAAAAAAAAJE/aQxW2_k3h7o/s1600-h/DSC00642.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This Weekend was PINKS ALL OUT in Ennis Texas. Pinks All Out is a TV show that is on the Speed Channel. We watch all of the Speed Channel Shows at our house... Pinks... Pinks All Out... Pass Times.... Drag Race High.. Bull Run.... etc. So when we heard they were taping a Pinks All Out so close to us we jumped at the chance to go. We were accompanied by about 25 or so cars from the OKC area. It was a lot of fun to go with all of our friends. One car from the OKC area made it into the top 4 which was really exciting! Aiden loves being at the track and loves watching the show but I don't think he put the two together while we were there. I think for him it was just another day at the track. However, he did like to see alllllll of the amazing race cars that were there. (There were about 500 race cars.) His favorite was one of the jet fuel cars! He liked it because it looked like a sheriff car, with lights and everything. It ran a 6 second something in the 1/4 mile, I think at like 240 MPH or something like that!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeEvU7FCI/AAAAAAAAAI0/hC4SCLSTTmM/s1600-h/DSC00620.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316180583162516514" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeEvU7FCI/AAAAAAAAAI0/hC4SCLSTTmM/s400/DSC00620.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Doesn't He Look Like A Grown BOY?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeEY22vjI/AAAAAAAAAIs/YuCDIuPg_UE/s1600-h/DSC00644.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316180577130823218" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeEY22vjI/AAAAAAAAAIs/YuCDIuPg_UE/s400/DSC00644.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; These are some of our Best Friends, Justin and Alisha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeD4-kU-I/AAAAAAAAAIk/_cTrbeh6jhA/s1600-h/DSC00643.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316180568573236194" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeD4-kU-I/AAAAAAAAAIk/_cTrbeh6jhA/s400/DSC00643.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; US!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-4647649707301738066?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/4647649707301738066/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=4647649707301738066' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/4647649707301738066'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/4647649707301738066'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/03/this-weekend-was-pinks-all-out-in-ennis.html' title='PINKS ALL OUT'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/ScbeEvU7FCI/AAAAAAAAAI0/hC4SCLSTTmM/s72-c/DSC00620.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-5295561682238926137</id><published>2009-03-07T10:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-03-27T13:39:40.375-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Our Night at the Race Track.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SbLFmVmVA5I/AAAAAAAAAIU/87QDGYkxQVU/s1600-h/4j9ekvpr1kba3hs8ac6w.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5310524173046842258" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SbLFmVmVA5I/AAAAAAAAAIU/87QDGYkxQVU/s400/4j9ekvpr1kba3hs8ac6w.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SbLFl2EksDI/AAAAAAAAAIM/AulPvm-sp2Q/s1600-h/gyyycond36542c3tvdk1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5310524164583764018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 294px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SbLFl2EksDI/AAAAAAAAAIM/AulPvm-sp2Q/s400/gyyycond36542c3tvdk1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsZPX9pQBcQ"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsZPX9pQBcQ&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can click the you tube link above to view the full video.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Last night we went to Thunder Valley Drag Race Track just to watch some of our friends race their cars. Both of our cars, the Mustang and the Nova, are torn apart right now. Our friend Striker was racing down the track when he got out of the "groove" (the sticky part of the track). You can see the back end of his car start to come around and that's when he hit his brakes and lost control of the car. It is hard to see in the video because the lights on the time board are blurry, but he slide across the 1/4 mile mark on the roof of his car at 64 MPH! Luckily he has a 10 point roll cage in his car, he was wearing his helmet, and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;safety&lt;/span&gt; harness, and he walked away from the crash with no injuries! Anyone who doesn't believe a roll cage, a helmet, and a harness, will save your life, and races with out one is completely NUTS! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-5295561682238926137?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/5295561682238926137/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=5295561682238926137' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/5295561682238926137'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/5295561682238926137'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/03/our-night-at-race-track.html' title='Our Night at the Race Track.'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SbLFmVmVA5I/AAAAAAAAAIU/87QDGYkxQVU/s72-c/4j9ekvpr1kba3hs8ac6w.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-6756382235428023661</id><published>2009-03-04T15:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-03-04T21:33:22.883-08:00</updated><title type='text'>More Disney Magic.....</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Sa8TYoH9v4I/AAAAAAAAAIE/Y_d473tdiMk/s1600-h/DSC00372.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309483799501717378" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 225px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/Sa8TYoH9v4I/AAAAAAAAAIE/Y_d473tdiMk/s400/DSC00372.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This is a great picture of my &lt;em&gt;very handsome&lt;/em&gt; husband! The first night we were in Florida we drove over to Cocoa Beach. We all ate dinner and then walked out into the water a little. Not to exciting, because it was dark when we got there.  However, we did see a crab walking along the beach. I took a picture of it, but sitting in the airport on the way home, Shawn deleted it because he said he couldn't see the crab.

I took &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; to school, did some shopping, and went and worked out. When I was on my way to pick up &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; from school things started to get a little more exciting!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On my way to get &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt;, I decided to stop really quick at the grocery store and pick up a few items. While shopping in the store the tornado sirens started sounding. The store manager started rounding everyone up to take cover in the bathrooms at the back of the store. There was not any way I was going to stay there and take shelter at Homeland, when I had no idea what was going on at my sons school! So I ran to my truck and started heading toward the school. Besides, I had checked the weather before I left the house and there was a Severe Thunderstorm warning but it did not seem like anything to serious, just heavy rain. I had only drove about a mile further before it started to get a little more serious than I anticipated. That's when the rain pretty much stopped, and the&lt;br /&gt;golf ball size hail started. As I drove on further the golf balls started getting larger. I was frantically trying to get in touch with Shawn, but of course when you need your cell phone the most, the calls never seem to go through. I started trying to use my ON STAR but the hail was so loud (and I'm sure my voice was so stressed) that they could not hear the phone number correctly and kept dialing the wrong number. I wanted to scream! Finally, I got through to Shawn and was telling him what was going on when a hail stone about the size of a baseball cracked my front windshield. I screamed! Keep in mind, this is while I'm trying to drive around trash cans and debris that are in the road, not to mention the idiots that were just stopping in the middle of the road not knowing what to do. By the time I reached &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Aidens&lt;/span&gt; school the hail was about the size of grapefruits! (There are pictures of these floating around I will try to post one later. ) Luckily, there was not a significant amount of this extremely large hail! Never the less I quickly parked my truck and ran inside where I was directed to the storm shelter. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; was very quick to tell me the whole story from his point of view. The tornado sirens started going off while they were taking their nap. The teachers quickly woke them up and put there shoes on them and hurried them down stairs. Thank God they did this so quickly. The second story classroom windows were blown out seconds later! &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; and I stayed at the school in the shelter until they gave us the all clear, and we quickly went back home. We took shelter 2 more times that afternoon as more funnel clouds were reported in the Yukon area. I usually do not get scared or worried about severe weather but driving through it is a whole other experience, I would not recommend!&lt;br /&gt;o&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZb6PQAA-0I/AAAAAAAAAD0/YE3GRi4QLsI/s1600-h/DSC00305.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302700751175351106" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZb6PQAA-0I/AAAAAAAAAD0/YE3GRi4QLsI/s400/DSC00305.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the windshield of my truck once I got home and parked it safely in the garage!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZb5OAPkRwI/AAAAAAAAADs/MjwCYSulp68/s1600-h/14.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZb5GEiPlOI/AAAAAAAAADk/7Cz_QPwuYwQ/s1600-h/21109yukon2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302699493967238370" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZb5GEiPlOI/AAAAAAAAADk/7Cz_QPwuYwQ/s400/21109yukon2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a picture taken by a girl at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Aidens&lt;/span&gt; school of the first funnel cloud over Yukon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-2131155908367405464?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/2131155908367405464/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=2131155908367405464' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/2131155908367405464'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/2131155908367405464'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/02/tuesday-started-out-to-be-pretty-normal.html' title='Our Wild Tuesday!'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZb6PQAA-0I/AAAAAAAAAD0/YE3GRi4QLsI/s72-c/DSC00305.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359956826413213197.post-4125631906007627908</id><published>2009-02-08T20:23:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-09T16:04:17.641-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZC_ow3kMkI/AAAAAAAAADc/WWuOPoyNDl0/s1600-h/aidens_snow_day_Page_21.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300947468448707138" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZC_ow3kMkI/AAAAAAAAADc/WWuOPoyNDl0/s400/aidens_snow_day_Page_21.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZC_jxLd-TI/AAAAAAAAADU/agJV5TeN6T0/s1600-h/aidens_snow_day_Page_23.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300947382632839474" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZC_jxLd-TI/AAAAAAAAADU/agJV5TeN6T0/s400/aidens_snow_day_Page_23.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZC_cmNwJwI/AAAAAAAAADM/BD8r9H5o9-U/s1600-h/aidens_snow_day_Page_22.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300947259430545154" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SZC_cmNwJwI/AAAAAAAAADM/BD8r9H5o9-U/s400/aidens_snow_day_Page_22.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; turned "The Big 3" on Sunday! Many of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Aidens&lt;/span&gt; friends and family joined us at the Play Zone in Mustang to celebrate. The Play Zone has a large inflatable &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;obstacle&lt;/span&gt; course and a jump house. We also had pizza and a cookie cake. I think everyone had a great time. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Aiden&lt;/span&gt; said it was his best birthday ever! &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Every time&lt;/span&gt; I took a picture the kids would want to see them so, I thought I would post the pictures on my blog so everyone could check them out! Thank You to everyone who joined us at the party and for all of the Birthday Wishes from those who couldn't attend!

finally warmed up a slight bit today so I decided to take Aiden sledding. He was really excited to go buy his own sled! He had a blast, and only crashed a few times. Just like his dad, he kept wanting to go faster.

Everything went as planned and he is doing great! He had to drink some "sleepy juice" before they took him back to work on his tooth. I thought it was hard taking care of drunk adults, I had no idea about drunk 3 year &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;olds&lt;/span&gt;!  When they brought him back into the room the nurse informed us he had to wake up and walk across the room before he left. The only thing he wanted to do was go back to sleep! We finally got him somewhat awake and he managed to stumble across the room about and hour later. He fell back asleep as we pulled out of the parking lot! =) He is still asleep right now. Hopefully he will do fine when he wakes up, without too much pain!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5359956826413213197-1163954574336278818?l=theellingtons.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/feeds/1163954574336278818/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5359956826413213197&amp;postID=1163954574336278818' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1163954574336278818'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5359956826413213197/posts/default/1163954574336278818'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theellingtons.blogspot.com/2009/01/aidens-bad-tooth.html' title='Aidens Bad Tooth'/><author><name>Shawn, Erin and Aiden</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15989228909502180602</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SMGGAorP4rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vm86sITJVaM/S220/family+pics+may07+056.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KKUePgVFIhE/SX4IfMV08SI/AAAAAAAAAA4/e20tKDquafI/s72-c/iphone+038.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
