Today we took pictures of Ellie to submit to the yearbook for her senior casual photo. Here are a few of our favorites...

Ellie is so photogenic, it was hard to choose just one photo for her senior casual. We ended up choosing the last one where she's hugging her legs. Next week, she will get her picture in her senior drape.

















I also wrote a piece for her senior ad. She gets 1/2 page in her honor for being on yearbook staff. Others have to pay 150.00 to get a half page ad. They ask you to submit up to 100 word text and 6 photo's. This is what I submitted:

Ellie,

Our little dreamer… What a magnificent imagination you’ve been blessed with. Your creativity shines through everything you do. Often, I’d pull into the driveway to see it covered in countless quotes and colorful chalk drawings. Your enthusiasm, wonder, and beautiful smile lights up the world. You have a sweet, calming presence and a heart full of compassion, kindness, and grace. You are an old soul, wise beyond your years. You project beauty onto everything you see… where some see a weed, you see a flower. You have blessed our lives immeasurably! We adore you!

Love, Mom, Dad, Tyler, Alex, Drew, and Emma
