#prayersforanissa :: A City on our KneesPosted by Alli on November 20, 2009
When we drive around town, I usually have the radio on and it is usually tuned to J103, the local CCM station. One rather popular song that keeps popping up in their playlist is Praise You in this Storm by Casting Crowns. The lyrics are very moving and calming- reminding me that where ever the [...]
Wordless Wednesday :: Glowing MamaPosted by Alli on November 18, 2009
My friend Heather is expecting (yeah!) and she said I could take some maternity pictures of her someday soon. Last week I took a few impromptu shots at the playground and I really like how this one turned out. For more Wordless Wednesday pictures, check out Momdot.

This is post 667Posted by Alli on November 17, 2009
I looked at my wordpress dashboard and it said I had 666 posts. So, I had to make one more to change the number. I’m still sick, but I can tell the medicine the physician’s assistant prescribed has helped. Let’s all say a little word of thanks for codeine. I got some good sleep. I [...]
I Heart Faces :: Autumn BeautyPosted by Alli on
This week’s I ♥ Faces challenge is Autumn Beauty. I had a plethora of Autumn Beauty to share, because we have had a really gorgeous Fall. I think it is traditional for most families to take some time to visit a pumpkin patch at some point in the fall. The colors make for excellent backdrops [...]
Giving in- I’m sickPosted by Alli on November 16, 2009
I declare that if someone is going to get sick with an illness that will cripple her while performing mother/ wife duties, the illness should definitely start with a FEVER. Because if it starts with a cough after a brisk walk in the post-Ida wind, followed by achiness blamed on working out, then I the [...]
Well, that went fastPosted by Alli on November 13, 2009
This week was a bit jammed pack and suddenly I find myself with two kids in bed and it is Friday night. How did that happen? Between doctor visits, a playdate, exercise, and the minutia of life, the week flew by. And I don’t think life will slow down until next weekend. Maybe. That’s the [...]
It’s my birthdayPosted by Alli on November 9, 2009
Well, there it is. This is me today, on my birthday, at the ripe young age of 33. I think I look ok. And I feel ok. Things are low key around here, due to just getting back from a weekend away and you know- life. But we took the day off from school. Tebow [...]
Being true to myself :: I’m a bloggerPosted by Alli on November 5, 2009
So, I decided to try and think about the things I know about myself in an effort to answer “Who am I?” question. And one of the areas of my life- one of the true things about me- is my online life. The blogging, the twittering, the facebooking, and the DIGITAL MOM part of my [...]

Top Ten Tuesday :: GimmePosted by Alli on November 3, 2009
Okay, since my birthday is next Monday (I promise to remind you every day), I am going with such an original top ten list (sarcasm implied): What I want for my birthday. (BTW: if I link to something on Amazon, it has an affiliate link.) Some of these are serious. Some are outlandish. Some are [...]
