About

As I wander through life I will post my wonderings here. I'll share of my adventures and curiosities, of motherhood, of foods and recipes I enjoy, and so many other things. This is a lifestyle blog that is mostly written for myself, to process life, and to remember experiences I have had...however, I am not a private person, so if you find this interesting or helpful then please enjoy!

Hi there, I am Ellie. Welcome to my blog, a place of (hopefully) interesting, fun, and beautiful things. I am a missionary kid turned Virginia girl (after living in a variety of places). I love to cook, take photos, dress up, drink wine, exercise, and create things. I have worked a variety of jobs including some of my own businesses like photography and a chocolate company, and my latest endeavor was getting my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health. I have an insatiable desire to travel, adventure, and experience new things. We only have one life, so we may as well take care of ourselves and use our time wisely so that we can live life to the fullest!

This is my husband, Andy. He saves the world through Solar Energy, pretty sweet! He is a jack-of-all-trades and also loves to do 24-hour Adventure Races. (Crazy fellow, but I love him so!)

I also have two kids 7-years apart. They definitely keep me busy and sometimes have me feeling on the brink of insanity! But- I am so grateful to be their mom and all the adventures that entail.
