Posted by Alli on May 9, 2011

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Nutrish. All opinions are 100% mine. We like to tell people our first children are our dogs. It’s true. They really are our first children. And it doesn’t matter how many kids we end up having, Lively and Maple hold special places in our [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of FRESCHETTA® for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. There are plenty of annoying and earth shattering things out there in the world… and what I’m about to gripe about isn’t one of them. But it still annoys me. Frozen pizza for one person that [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pier 1. All opinions are 100% mine. I am so excited that Spring has finally arrived here in Northeast Georgia. It isn’t just being able to open the windows, soak up the fresh air, and see all the green awake from it’s Winter sleep. [...]

Posted by Alli on January 3, 2011

The first day has come and gone, the first hours, the first minutes, the first seconds. As we push into the first week, I am using a laptop I’m afraid of and trying to make sense of the direction I am heading. Last January I tried to make 2010 the year of me. Instead, God [...]

Posted by Alli on November 9, 2010

In life we stumble through so many “fresh starts.” January 1st is a pretty popular one. It is a time of year for reflection on the past and planning the steps to make the next year even better. We make lists, set goals, plot paths to make sure the next 365 days are filled with [...]

Posted by Alli on June 1, 2010

There is a song I keep hearing on the radio. The refrain goes, “This is the first day of the rest of your life.” At the end of the song the singers are chanting it and I can’t help but smile. As each new day passes, I am even more excited about the next chapter [...]

Posted by Alli on January 18, 2010

When 2010 started, I thought I knew what was up. I wrote: Health- The 2010 picture of health will be the main focus for the first quarter of this year. This is because I’m having surgery sometime this month (more on it later, and it isn’t what you might think) and I hope this surgery [...]

Posted by Alli on January 4, 2010

On New Year’s Day I mentioned wanting to get to know God better and starting by reading The Bible all the way through. I’m happy to say that I am on track for the 90 day challenge and finished the book of Genesis today. If you know me in real life, if you know my [...]

Posted by Alli on January 1, 2010

You know those pictures they show on TV or the movies where they start to zoom in and suddenly you realize the big picture is made up of a mosaic consisting of lots and lots of tiny pictures? And as the zoom continues you realize those tiny pictures are made of even smaller pictures? And [...]

title pic Tomorrow is a brand new… year

Posted by Alli on December 31, 2009

I took this picture via remote the other day when setting up for the all important large family picture. It cracks me up. For one, I have big hair. And the look on my face… well, I knew it wasn’t a “real picture” but it turned into something that I think actually looks like the [...]
