Welcome to my blog!

Welcome to my blog ... I am a little late in the game in getting into the blogging world, but better late than never I guess! The name of the blog is "Starting at Plan C" and refers to the fact that it always seems that no matter how hard I try to plan things out in life, somehow Plan A doesn't always work, nor does Plan B or C or D ... so maybe I should just start on Plan C and save some time! It's kind of a family joke that we will ask each other "what plan are we on ... B, C, D ... H???" Life is crazy and hectic but I am blessed to have it filled with wonderful family and friends! I try my best to take life as it comes and go with the flow no matter how hard it may be ... I find my strength in Christ as well as in the support of wonderful family and friends ... if not for these things, I might really have gone crazy by now! I hope you'll enjoy reading about this crazy journey I like to call life (with a side of crazy)! That's me and my family in the photos below ... my husband Brandon, son Brady, and daughter Ellianna. If you are visiting the blog, it's probably because I already know you, but if not, welcome and feel free to visit our website to read more about our last year which was filled with lots of trials ... we are hoping 2011 is a little less tragic than the past 2 years have been but realize that these tragedies are what have made us stronger and closer as a family ... God works in mysterious ways and we are anxiously awaiting to see what he has planned for our lives ... we have already witnessed miracles first-hand throughout these trials and have been blessed to be surrounded by fabulous family and friends ... we are eternally grateful!

I Heart Faces Weekly Challenge



So, I have been following a photography website for quite awhile now but haven't joined in any of the weekly photo challenges they have because you need a blog to participate ... so now that I have finally created a blog, I might as well enter a photo into the weekly challenge (since I may have just taken a few this week).  The challenge this week is "Smile".  I had no trouble finding a picture of one of the kids smiling, but I'm sure no one wants to see the "cheese" smiles I usually get.  I had the camera out yesterday playing with the new lens and captured this ... it just truly melts my heart ... I didn't even ask for a smile for this picture, I just held up the camera and got this great grin!  She looks so much older in this picture and makes me realize that her baby days are done but she is a pretty darn adorable 2-year-old if I do say so myself!

    Great capture :) The random ones you don't plan on getting always are the best though, aren't they? ^_^

    She is a beautiful little girl. I have to agree, the best pictures I get of the kids are spur-of-the-moment, unplanned pictures. :)
