Pop's Round Table - UP DATE

There once was a round dinner table that was used to feed the

 Elggren Family.

********

Like all good things in life. . . the "Kitchen Table" broke.  Pop converted it to a 15" tall "Coffee Table" to be used as a display in the front room.

The home it was built for was sold.  It was moved to it's new home in Layton.  (Also known as the Elggren Family). 

The dining room / coffee table once more "gave in" to the time and abuse it was given. 

Dismanteling of the table to reveal what Pop did many years ago to modify it from a kitchen table to the coffee table was a

 "head scratcher". 

Reinforcement was needed to stablize it for the next generation of kids.

Hours of thought and preparation went into accomplishing what needed to be done.

Help from Dustin and Payton were welcomed. 

A special plate was designed and screwed in place.

But most important. . . the finishing touch was put on by the

future generation.

The bottom was replaced. 

The table was flipped over and Poof!!!!

The table is ready for the kids to lean, sit and lay on it as the Papa and Grandma yell  "Get off the table".

I hope this update will allow it to move to at least one more generation.

Happy New Year ... to those that live beyond my reach...

Life has a tendency to keep the sweet things just out of the reach of a person.

By means of the wonders of "Blogging"

We extend our hugs and kisses

to those that live beyond

 our reach

Food . . . 2009 - 2010 . . . Welcome

Kyson waiting for the signal to start eating....

A party would not be a party without something to snack on before the main dish is ready....

Steaks were worth waiting for . . .

  ask anyone there...

Rolls had a different

"TWIST"

 ... But they were worth eating.

The Kids were attempting to be part of the food and world that the night was holding.

Little or no instructions were needed

as to how be part

of the party.

Cheese Fries, Jello Salad, Punch, Rolls, Hot Dogs, Pork Chops, Steak, Roast

One would think that "Papa" did not turn up the heat by the way some are wearing their coats.

Truth be known... Few did not want to "waste" time before starting the process of eating.

Christmas with Santa . .

Merry Christmas to the "Kids" that made Christmas a few years back to those that make Christmas NOW!!!!
