Ellis News

Well it is 2012 and a new year is upon us. There are still two entries left in Dad's history so I will finish that up shortly and then I have a few interesting things to post. This year I am going to get back to posting some family stories and poems and other things that you might be interested in. Again, if there are any stories that you would like to see posted, email them to me. I hope that you all have a wonderful and prosperous new year and are blessed with joy and happiness!

Dog Japp

One Thanksgiving when Emily was young, we were all sitting around the table waiting for the prayer and meal to start. Dad was cutting the turkey and he had a plate that he was putting all the skin and gristle on. When he finished he turned to one of the boys and said, "go give the dog that". Emily piped in with "Dog Japp, what is Dog Japp"? Hence the term Dog Japp has become synonymous with turkey trimmings that you feed to the dog (at least at our house)!
