About Us

Welcome to Life, Construction & Everything In Between.

I am Elly…wife, mom, business co-owner, full-time professional, and the person behind this blog. This is where I write about real life. Family, construction, home projects, the journey of building a business from the ground up, and everything that happens in between.

I started this blog years ago as a personal space to write, share, and connect. It has grown into something I am genuinely proud of a running record of our life, our family, and everything we are building together.

I have been married to my best friend Chris for over 27 years. Together we have three sons Joshua, Isaque, and Gabriel and one very loved dog named Kal. They are my whole world and the reason behind everything I do.

Life has not always been easy. I have faced serious health challenges that tested me in ways I never expected. Those experiences shaped the way I see the world with more patience, more gratitude, and a deep appreciation for what truly matters.

In April 2026, Chris and I took a leap of faith and launched C.E. & Sons Construction LLC, a family-owned general contracting company based in East Bridgewater, Massachusetts. Chris brings over 15 years of hands-on construction experience to every project. I handle the business side — organization, client communication, planning, and making sure everything runs the way it should. It has been one of the most exciting chapters of our lives and you will find that journey documented here too.


Outside of all of that I am an analytical thinker who loves a great cup of coffee, culinary adventures, travel, photography, and connecting with people from all walks of life.

Thank you for being here. It genuinely means a lot.

Built on Family. Built to Last. 💙
