ROLL TIDE!!! Big AL is ready for the game. #rolltide #rolltideroll #crimsontide #nationalchampionshipbound

Taking down the Christmas tree is always a little depressing. But, Sadie & I have taken this task on together & our favorite part has been reminiscing about the ornaments & decorations - where they came from, which ones were my grandmother's, etc. Our favorites, by far, are the lights & colorful strands of beads. They both make the tree magical & full of wonder. #inthedetails #magical #mommydaughtertime #reminiscing #christmasdecorations #instagood #instapic #birminghamphotographer @artfullcreations

May your days be merry & bright. Happy Christmas!! #silverbells #merrychristmas #merryandbright @artfullcreations #catherinepittmansmithphotography #sparkleandshine @whitreidinger

What I love about the south - The last harvest of the summer... Peaches. What glorious flavor, color & beauty they provide. I'm thankful for harvests in our lives & the changes they usher in. Autumn is a time of change & transition. May yours be filled with abundant favor & blessings. #peaches #favor #harvest #characterofthesouth #whatiloveaboutthesouth #south @artfullcreations

#Holy Week. Our Lord Jesus Christ came into Jerusalem heralded as a king. People laid down their cloaks & palm branches proclaiming: "Hosanna! Blessed is he comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the king of Israel!" In less than a week's time the very same people (us) accused, found guilty & hung Him on a cross. Thanks be to God that He loves us so much that He gave His only son. #theway #truth #thecross #JesusChrist #hosanna #sacrifice #helovesus #palmbranches #palmsunday #easteriscoming @artfullcreations

"I am the true vine, & my Father is the Gardner. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful." John 15:1-2. I am so thankful that spring has arrived. Thanks be to God. #springhassprung #tuliptree #gardener #inspiration #thankful #fruitful @artfullcreations

Ash Wednesday @ Havenfield Church. Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust. Lent - a time of inward reflection, fasting, & prayer. I'm giving up grumbling, complaining & negativity. It's desert time but hopefully it's the last wandering. I believe there will be plenty of room to hear God's voice. #lent #40days #ashestoashes #dusttodust #havenfield #reflection @artfullcreations

SOUTH... It's the new thing. I went to the launch party Thursday night for the South's newest magazine. This will rival Garden & Gun. The first issue is in June. Be on the look out. #south #southmagazine #southofalabamaandthegulfcoast #birminghamphotographer #bhaminstagram @artfullcreations

Resurrection: life & death, joy & trials. Our lives are lived in between these 2 verbs & 2 nouns. Spiritual blessings are so often disguised in the form of trials. Where there is death, we discover new life. And in the trials, there lies opportunity for growth, completeness, truth & joy. Push through the pain to secure the joy. Rejoice & give thanks always. Thessalonians 5:16.

'Twas the night before Christmas & all through the house... Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
