Taste


At the beginning of November we go to go to the 11th Annual Taste of Salt Lake. It is a fundraising dinner and auction for Cystic Fibrosis. This was the First Taste that they have had since Drae was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. We couldn't wait to go and support Suzie, Daniel and sweet baby Drae as well as help donate to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. It was formal dress so we all had fun getting decked out for our big night out!

I seriously love my sisters!
Mikelle didn't have a date so Rob said he would be her date too!



Do you recognize that news guy(I don't even know his name)? He decided to sneak in a picture with all of us hot babes!
Mom and Dad.
Marc Eaton was there, can you even believe how tall he is!
We don't even make it to his nipple line and that is with 4 inch heels on!

All the girls from our two tables.
All the guys. My man still stands out to me in a crowd even after almost 11 years! Still can't resist those dimples!
The whole family was able to go. I love my family!
At the end of the night you could buy your centerpiece as a donation. We had this fish at our table and knew we had to take him home to the kids. Little Finn is part of the family now.
It was an awesome night and was our start into the CF community. Suzie, Daniel and Drae were in the video, Living with CF, that they showed that night. They talked about what it is like having an infant with CF. They did such a good job! It was a bit of a tear jerker. This night was all for you baby Drae. We love you! Live, Love, Breathe!

Rob is, and always has been, handsome! And he has a personality to match.

Looks like a fun night, and for such a great cause! And yes, those Ellingson dimples are hard to resist and Rob is lucky to have TWO!!

I have to admit Rob really is a looker! Add to that being a great guy - what a combination! (You're an awesome combination too!) That last picture of Drae and the "Live, Love, Breathe!" comment brought tears. She's so blessed to have your wonderful family as a support and circle of love!!!

Sounds like such a perfect night, and a great cause. Support is the best thing you can give to a parent whose has been blessed with a child with special needs. Drae has come to a perfectly supportive family and that will make her complete this life with success.
