The final photo submitted as part of the “Carmen Contest” was this one from Nancy in Iowa. She has eight children (five adopted, four from Guatemala). Thanks Nancy!
That’s it! These are all the photos, animations and paintings that you submitted. Thank you so much for helping us celebrate Carmen and how God has used her to bring us all together. We thoroughly enjoyed all of your submissions! You may not remember but this was a contest…which means that there is a winner. We’ll be announcing the winner within a couple of days along with the prize that this person will receive for winning.
In the coming weeks and months, we are hoping to do more things like this to make Beautiful Canvas “a little less about us, a little more about you, and a lot more about Him!”
Thanks again!
While Ted submitted an animation, Karen submitted her own creations. Talk about a creative couple!!!
The second painting says Carmen in Chinese (at least that’s what Karen told us!). Thank you Karen!
Del and Cristina are an amazing couple who live near us in MD. They have pretty much “been there, done that” and have great wisdom from all of their life experiences. Thankfully, they openly share their wisdom and hopefully a tiny bit rubs off on Lana and me!
This photo was submitted by Cristina.
Carmen has never been to San Diego…but she did move recently. Lana will tell you all about it in an upcoming post. Stay tuned!
Today’s photo was submitted by NY Grandpa, who just “happens” to show up when we really need him.
Today’s photos were submitted by my younger brother (Uncle Steve), his wife (Aunt Sarah) and their son Nathan. Quite an impressive assortment!
For whom or what do you swing?
