The Griffin Family at the Odessa TEA Party

Today we exercised our right to assemble by participating in a TEA Party at the Odessa City Hall. Morgan was at school but Emma was there with us waving an American flag and a sign that said "Government Spending is Stealing my Future." Ashleigh listened to the speakers and kept Emma company while I circled the crowd with the video camera. We wanted to make sure the event was well documented. We were very pleased with the turnout—I'd say a good 500+ at the start of the rally. Though the TEA Party this Saturday at the Midland Vietnam War Memorial should make this one look look like a warm-up.

Emma is Here!

We are proud to announce the birth of Emma Ireline Griffin on May 19th 2007 at 1:48AM. It's been a rough couple of days, but we are finally home with the latest addition to our family. She weighed in at 8lbs. 10oz. which probably seems big to some, but was an answer to prayer after having Morgan the Giant. Anyway, it was great to see all of the family and thanks to all of our friends that came by and sent stuff to the room. Here is the first video and some photos.
