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 [...]
Freshetta By The Slice :: Review and GiveawayPosted by Alli on April 26, 2011
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 [...]
The what-could-be potential of the best room in the housePosted by Alli on March 26, 2011
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. [...]
Back to firstsPosted 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 [...]
Fresh startsPosted 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 [...]
The first dayPosted 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 [...]
18 days in, a health reportPosted 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 [...]
Bible reading in 90 DaysPosted 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 [...]
2010 :: Year of MePosted 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 [...]
Tomorrow is a brand new… yearPosted 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 [...]
