Fun at the Park

It's not everyday I post a picture of myself on our blog so enjoy the rare moment for the special thing that it is!

Saturday, Brent took the kids and I out to Marion Park for something different to do. We had a great time talking while the kids played on the playground. Can I tell you how much I love this guy?!? He thinks on such a different level than I do, but always does his best to explain such complex things in a way even I can understand it! He never gets frustrated with me and my silly attempts to help him with his work. I love listening to him and hearing his ideas of how things should work. There were so many single girls in our singles' group where we met...why he chose me, I'll never understand, but I'm so glad he did! He truly dwells with me according to knowledge...and trust me...figuring me out is not an easy chore!

The kids had a great time playing on the playground. There are some really fun things to do at Marion Park. Here they are sliding down the curly slide together before they go off to something else!

Daniel has just conquered the monkey bars and is quite proud of himself. It took a while for him to be able to do this without any help, but he's got the "hang" of it now (he-he-he!) Hannah will not be outdone by Daniel and really did want to do the monkey bars, too. And with a little bit of help from Daddy was able to make it all the way across, too...okay...alot of help from Daddy...she barely held on to the bars while Brent walked along supporting all of her weight!

Hannah has turned into quite the Daddy's girl lately. She almost always prefers Daddy over Mommy even when she's hurt and needs some loving! She's making up for lost time, I guess. Whatever it is, she sure knows how to melt Daddy's heart!

Hey Griffins!
Thank you for sending us the web site to your blog. I have been sitting here reading it all the way back as far as I could go. We sure miss you here but are resting in the fact that you are where we all want our children to be. (No not in the Northwoods!) In the Lords will! Hope to see you soon!
Love, Linda Rippberger

Linda!!! We miss you so much! Thanks for taking the time to post! We are missing Chicago, but do take comfort in being in the Lord's will and seeing Him work in AMAZING ways! We'll be in Chicago next Sunday (July 16) just staying over night at the Browns on our way South to Indiana. We'll try to get down when we can stay a while and make a church service! Maybe hit a pizza restaurant or 2!
