Happy 17th Anniversary to Deborah
It’s is hard to believe but today, 17 years ago, my wife and I got married. This particular anniversary was a little different since Deborah would normally be sitting in the next room on a normal day, and this week she is in Denver teaching a hand quilting class, and it just happen to fall on…

Photo Shoot and Thoughts of Thanksgiving 2009
Thanksgiving is now long gone (and so is the food I hope) but I finally got around to editing a few impromptu photo shoots that happened over that weekend. Â We often move from holiday to holiday and are “thankful” when it is time to be thankful, and “merry” when it is time for Christmas, but…

Reflecting on Life with My Dog Blazer Circa 1994
For my Throwback Thursday post today, it’s me. Yes, this is me from back in 1994 with our Basset Hound, Blazer. We just got back from a week of travel from Virginia to North Carolina and all places in between. When we got back we found out that Blazer (who is 16 years old) had…

Looking at Life from the Outside In
The last few weeks here on my blog I have been trying to decide what shape or form my blog was going to take. I recently started seminary at Liberty University to work on my MDiv and the time requirements have been incredible. In additional to school and work I have started getting more into…

I would say I hate getting sick, but so does everyone. I haven’t been sick to the point where I felt like I needed to stay home from work (or refrain from work, these days you can work from anywhere) for years. I say years because I really can’t remember the last time I didn’t…

Thanksgiving Photo Shoot for a Christmas Card
Thanksgiving weekend is just about to wind down and move into the 25 day rush to Christmas. Â It was a nice weekend with some nice rain showers and lots of food. Â I just finished watching one of the more lousy versions of the Iron bowl (if you are an Auburn fan) over the last few…

Giving Up Thanksgiving For Christmas This Year?
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I am sitting here about to turn on the Macy’s Day Parade and for some reason thinking about Christmas and New Years Day and beyond. For some reason this year it seems like we have skipped over Thanksgiving and are bolting ourselves into the Christmas day time. Retail stores are probably…

Thanksgiving Week on the Farm with Dad and John Deere
It’s Thanksgiving week and that means that Auburn University classes are over for the holiday break. Â For the last few years this week has been the time which my dad, Larry Fillmer, takes a few days off from work and gets on the John Deere tractor and cuts the pasture grass for the winter. Â There…

Family Photo Shoot on the Farm
About a week ago I did a shoot (with Deborah’s help, thanks) here at our place with some close friends of mine, the Spurlock family, Heath, Dawn, Dylan, and Haley. It was the first family shoot I had done out here on the farm it was great fun. It was nice of Dawn to think…
