Senior night at Bogue Chitto...

This is Nick (Mom's newphew) and Daddy. This was taken two weeks ago (not the date on the picture) at the final game for Bogue Chitto. Nick is a senior this year. He has faced may hurdles in his life and we are very very proud to say that he takes them all in stride and keeps his head held high.

From what we are hearing, it's very possible that he will be attending college next year at either Co-Lin or Southwest on a football scholarship...

Nick-We love you and are proud of the type of man you are becoming...

Things here have been crazy!! Going..going..I think I might have passed myself somewhere along the way...But isn't that everyone's life?!?!?

Things around the Ellis house are the usual...
Bridget is doing good. She's about 7 weeks now. Chris is working in LA and is home every weekend now...

Mom and Dad are doing good. Dad got a new "grill"...he got some false teeth...there was a few touch and go days with him during that...but he's adjusting well now. He said today was the first day he had to sneeze since he's gotten them, and he about had to catch them mid air, so now he knows, sneeze with mouth closed!! Mom is doing her thing, whatever that maybe...

I have bought a truck...YES FINALLY got my ride I've been wanting since high school...only thing is I requested one paid for and that didn't happen..but oh well you take what you can get. It's a 2005 Ford F150 XLT Supercab 4x4... told you I got what I wanted!! My little tarus had a foot in the grave when I traded it in. Bessie (that's what I called the tarus) was a good car and had 160,000 miles on her, so it was time for her to rest. Besides going to wrecks and fires like I'd been doing wasn't helping her any.. I'll post a picture of my new ride after Chris puts my running boards on Sunday. That was one thing I didn't think about when I bought it...my short legs getting up into this 4x4 with no running boards...but problem will be solved Sunday, good thing chris loves me! I guess that's what it is or I'll be paying him back down the road.

Cool weather has somewhat started here and it's busy at the office. So that's got us rolling on that end..you know you have been busy when you realize at 4:15pm that you hadn't even went to the restroom that day..and you just ate lunch at 3:30! But that's a typical day in the gas business for this time of the year..

I'm working hard on getting all my EMT stuff together for my recertification..I sat thru 3 days of classes 2 weeks ago, and have another 3 day class next weekend. That's not counting the Tuesday and Thursday classes I go to on the side for my extra hours...I didn't realize what all was involved once I got my certification. I honestly wouldn't trade it for the world. I enjoy doing it.

Well it's 1:52 am and I'm still up, so I guess I've caught everyone up on our end of the world now I'll try to crash...
