So I had the idea to start this blog while on our honeymoon when we were in Florida. But we couldn't get a signal from inside the condo and the internet on the boat was OMWORDWAYTOOEXPENSIVE. Thought I was going to have to sign a waver saying I would have to name my first born child after the captain of the ship or send the kid off to work on the ship when he became old enough lol...sooooo. I decided to wait until we got back :-)

I've actually wanted to start one of these for quite a while. I've entertained the thought for a couple months now but was always to busy with every other thought a planning bride has, the most important being of course...SLEEP lol.
Now, after getting married, I figure, "why not start now?"

So many interesting things happen in our every day lives and facebook only allows your status to be so long :-P So, hello blogspot! Perhaps this may be enjoyable to someone out there as they surf around for something to read, and for others, a way to keep in touch in a more detailed way.
At any rate...

These are the adventures and findings of "Carl" (real name Tyler) and "Ellie" (real name Ashlie) Ingram :-)
Newly weds and very much in love and lovin' it!
FYI: We lOve Disney Pixar's movie UP. We lOvE it lOvE it lOvE it!! Hence, Carl & Ellie and the titles and headlines for this blog (example: "Our Adventure Blog" aka "My Adventure Book"...etc.).

I suppose this weekend is as good a place as any to start...

So far this weekend I have been slapped in the forehead, punched in the chin and jammed through a doorway lol. Tyler (my hubby :-P) and Bethanie always seem to find new ways to inadvertently, accidentally...beat me up lol. Examples from above:
1- Tyler was giving me a piggy back ride from the living room to the bathroom. "Awww, that's cute". Yes I can hear you now. And it was. Right up until he tried to jam us through the small bathroom doorway. Instead of turning slightly sideways, he just tried to bulldoze straight through. My knees kept that from happening though.
2- While messing around with Bethanie, Tyler and I were trying to snap a funny picture of her and when I went to reach out she instinctively threw out her arm with her fist attached to and knocked me in the chin!
3- I had just gotten out of the shower. My hair was still a bit to wet after I had taken it out of the towel. Tyler was standing in front of me talking to me while I was getting ready for the day. So I was going to bend over and flip my hair back over to ring it out some more, only when I did my forehead ran into Tyler's palm which he extended to give me a hug at the same moment...WHAMSLAP! lol

 These occurrences are pretty common and add a nice touch of "the unexpected" in my day.
Like a great sale...
   Gotta love a good sale!

On the other hand, the non-getting beat-up hand lol...
Today was a VERY good day for shopping indeed! Went to target and hit up the Halloween sales and racked UP lol Saved about $106. Got some candy, hehe :-P And some cute baby stuff (it's not for me pp so don't get your hopes up lol).
I'd say that's a pretty decent sale :-P
Headed to the mall where we found 6 tshirts (awesome ones I might add lol) for about $25, layed down on a mattress I'm convinced were made of cloud fluff, check out frosty at build-a-bear, stopped by Godiva for a FREE truffle (oooOOoOoh yes my friend!), and bought a delicious cookie covered in icing :-D
Yeah...twas a rEEEeEEEeeeEeEEEEEeEeeally good day :-)

Back home now. Had a yummy dinner of BBQ sandwiches (Tyler's dad made the BBQ...VERY MMM-MMM), watched some Monk, did some laundry,cleaned up a bit. Finished it off with a bubble bath and cuddlin.
We are truly blessed :-)

What else is there??

That's right....saved $ONE-OH-SIX ($106). Ah, nothing like an after-a-holiday clearance sale!
