title pic Lucky you! Movies for free

Posted by Alli on March 15, 2011

Disclosure: This is a compensated post. Getting out and about to the movies is just not possible these days. But, there isn’t lack of entertainment of the cinematic variety around here… and getting it for free is pretty cool. Right now, thanks to the folks at Redbox, they are offering free rental codes for any [...]

Posted by Alli on January 20, 2010

Over the holidays I let my flickr stream get a bit messy and as a result I haven’t really showcased some pictures from various events. This is one of my favorite pictures from Christmas. It was the evening we had raclette (which was a substitute for our Christmas Eve tradition of fondue) and I was [...]

Posted by Alli on December 4, 2009

I almost forgot to have us do an Advent pocket tonight! But I remembered and we had a really good conversation with Fuller about obeying Jesus. The Swedish fish were a fun treat to remind him of Luke 5: 4-7. Just a reminder, I’m participating in the December Photo Project, hosted by the lovely Rebecca. [...]

Posted by Alli on November 1, 2009

A few years ago I bought a spray can of gold hair/ body glitter. I didn’t really have an idea of what I should dress up for on Halloween (if at all), but I knew I wanted there to be glitter involved. I opened the can for the first time on Friday. I decided, even [...]

I love that our family is trying to make it a tradition to attend at least one educational demonstration by the Auburn Southeast Raptor Center each football season. They have the demos on the Fridays before home games. The first time we went, last year, there was a decent size crowd. We went again this [...]

title pic Mommy, do you want to dance?

Posted by Alli on October 15, 2009

How awesome is it when you put on some music and suddenly your five year old asks you to dance? Melts your heart, right? That’s what happened wen I put in the latest Harry Connick, Jr CD, Your Songs, on the CD player in the living room. Fuller and I had a sweet ten minutes [...]

Posted by Alli on October 2, 2009

Chick-fil-a was one of the Type A Mom sponsors. They gave us a quick “grab and go” lunch on Saturday, making it possible for me to finish packing the car between rain showers. I have to say, one of the things people like to talk to about in reference to Chick-fil-a is the sweet tea. [...]

Posted by Alli on September 30, 2009

D and Fuller spent the weekend away. It was hot and D decided to spend some time in the sun without a shirt. He asked Fuller to put the sunscreen on his back. And this is what happened: I see a profile of a face, looking to the left. I also see the reason why [...]

title pic Well, that was definitely different

Posted by Alli on September 21, 2009

For the past two years we have been going to Auburn during football season, ready to cheer on the football team to victory. It usually means weekend trips and vignettes of Southern football traditions, including the one and only Auburn Elvis. Here it is three weeks into the 2009 season and I haven’t really mentioned [...]

title pic Anatomy of a family picture

Posted by Alli on August 27, 2009

For some reason, it took over five months to get a picture of Damon, Fuller, Tebow, and me together. We were getting together with family one Sunday and I insisted we get a picture of the four of us. Then it evolved into a group picture with the sisters and their families. Then the sisters [...]
