Ali was in heaven:Then we had Thanksgiving dinner at our house for mine and Chris’ family. Ali moved up to seventh heaven!! She LOVES having all of […]
Deck the Halls With Thrills for Ali. . .
Hi there, other BooMama loyalists!! I was a bit ahead of the curve posting my holiday deco, but if it’s just the same with you, I’d like to share it with you anyway! So this is my post from November 23rd: Although I despise the movie “Christmas Vacation” with every bone in my body, I […]
A Few Stories from the Weekend.
Thursday night was the first night where we had ALL twelve of our kids there at once. We now have even odds: 12 kids, 12 adults. It was quite crazy! AND number 13 is on the way next year! (No, not me. AJ is going to be a big sister!) Kendall hanging out with her […]
"Camping" the Easy Way.
If you haven’t entered yet, be sure to visit my Reader Appreciation Giveaway!!! I know, I know. . . It’s been over 48 hours since my last post. What’s that noise? Gasps and Shrieks? Don’t worry – we’re fine! No sleepwalking injuries or (no-longer-in-existence) gallbladder attacks. We were at an annual camping trip – one […]
Fun With Food Photo Contest
5 Minutes for Mom has a new photo contest!!! When I saw that the sponsor was Prego and the theme was “Fun with Food”, I didn’t even have to scour my thousands of pictures – I knew the one! We went to Macaroni Grill a few weeks ago, and I ordered Ali the grilled chicken, […]

Photographical Evidence of the Week
Ali and I babysat AJ earlier this week, and as usual, the girls had a blast together. They are starting to play more “together” than just next to each other, and it’s so fun to watch them:AJ also enjoyed posing for pictures. She was very much enjoying smiling, then looking at her picture.Ali, although usually […]
It depends on who you ask.
We are at Kitty and Leo’s house this weekend enjoying my BIRTHDAY. Yes, we didn’t let that nasty stomach bug keep us from coming to the beach. Nosireee. We are here, enjoying every minute of it! I will write a more extensive blog about tidbits from our trip later, but since it’s Saturday, October 9th […]
Power Nap
One of my favorite sites, 5 Minutes for Mom, is having another photo contest!!! And, I usually get a bit coo coo when they have one of these. Just check out my SEVEN painfully planned and put together posts at the end of July – before I realized that I could only post one. Also, […]
Thoughts and Images from a Day in the Life. . .
As you read this, I am in Tuscaloosa enjoying an all-day-outdoors-tailgating-extravaganza, a la Chris. I will have left at some crazy time in the morning, and won’t be getting back until way after blogtime bedtime. But I care about you, my readers, so I would never leave you hanging without a blog for an ENTIRE […]
