Please fall in love with me...

So you see... there is this guy. And I love him. In fact, he was in my dream the other night. Let me introduce you to Tyler Ward. He writes music, covers songs, and helps promote new artists. And the best part??? He takes out all cuss words. Yes. Way to be Tyler.  You rock. :)

Chile and I love this cover. His facial expressions make us die of laughter. PLEASE watch it.

And here is an original that we enjoy. :)

Tyler, if you ever read this.... I just wanted to let you know I am single. ;) Please fall in love with me. 

Sincerely, Ellie

When life gives us rain...

When life gives us rain... we make ROLLS! And take silly photos inside windows. Today was a great day.  

Dirty windows + Adventurous hands = Dusty fingers... YUM 

These are cinnamon and sugar pull-a-parts and they are heavenly. 

To top the night, we made delicious, amazing, Mcgriddles. 

Homemade Rolls + Bacon + Eggs + Syrup = HEAVEN.

Merry Christmas

Christ: The Real Gift of Christmas  <----- Watch it.

Oh Christmas Eve...

Today is Christmas Eve and in my house we have lots of traditions. We make sugar cookies, have a family talent show, and a white elephant gift exchange! This year I was lucky enough to win exquisite chocolates from my brother. I sadly didn't take a picture of them though.. I might have eaten them a bit too fast... anyways, here are some pictures from my lovely day. :) 

This is the gingerbread man that I decorated for about 15 minutes. He is fully dressed in a tuxedo, a red bow tie, and a top hat.

Christmas talent show! Those are 3 of my brothers and  my brother's girlfriend. 

Hahahahaha oh the white elephant gift exchange... 

What's really cool about this mask is that it spoke and had a voice modulator . Coolest gift ever? I think so. 

Merry Christmas everyone!

It's a Beautiful Day.

What an awesome day. I couldn't believe how sunny and gorgeous it was. Its Christmas Eve and I spent the day kayaking on my lake in a short sleeve shirt. Incredible. 

The sun was blinding me.

Beautiful.

  

Reflection. :)

My fantastic brother. 

We are so blessed to live in such a beautiful place. 

And then... My family surprised me by getting a sailboat for Christmas. Super exciting? Yes. Scary? Incredibly. We had no idea how to use it and I thought we were going to die.

^ That's my mom. :)

The sunset was surreal

Merry Christmas Eve. Hopefully your day was just as amazing as mine was.
