Prayers and HOPE for Ginny

Gin,

So many are asking about you and praying for you - we are all totally jazzed about your climb and know that God will be with you all the way up that small little hillside hike you are going to be taking.

Godspeed - we love you! I will say a special prayer just before midnight tonight (our time) as you begin your climb.

kcsallstar — Mon, 02/15/2010 - 22:02

Climb the crap out of that mountain Rib; I tried to put myself in your shoes by climbing on my desk, laptop, printer and cabinets, but apparently that's frowned upon by the boss (especially in muddy sneakers)...who knew =P. Your adventure is about to start; enjoy the good, the bad and the ugly and keep smiling like a champ.

Peace and Love,

MP =)

"So long status quo, I think I just let go, You make me want to be brave. The way it always was, is no longer good enough, You make me want to be brave."

I'm so proud of you. Remember who you are, why you're there and as you take each step remember that you are loved and prayed for every step of the way. I miss you and love you and am so proud to call you friend.

All my love,
Karen

jodibble — Tue, 02/16/2010 - 20:32

Wess, Looking at picture from Monday, you still have long pants on, what's up with that? John, glad to see you're sticking close to my man... Quinn says she loves her Dad and thanks for the Valentine. Ali is over today playing. Big Black and Little Brown are missing their walking partner and JoJo wishes she were there. Guys, have a good hike to Shira Camp 1, by the look of the camp it looks like we should have gone with the 2 1/2" mattress!

Mountains of Snow

loflemox — Tue, 02/16/2010 - 21:48

Goodluck Wess! At this rate you can use your skills to climb thru the mountains of snow we've accumulated here in Central OH! Wish you were here or we were there! We'll bring out our air mattress for your next visit. You and Blackie can have a grand time snuggling! The Moxley's

Hey girl...day 2...I hope as I am writing this that you are resting well and preparing for another big day tomorrow. I miss you and I love you, so much! "Be strong in the Lord, never give up hope. You're gonna do great things, I already know, God's got His hand on you so don't live life in fear. Forgive and forget but don't forget why you're here...take your time and pray."

Much love girl!!!

Take it higher!!
