Happy Birthday to Joel!!

Joel's 30th in Zimbabwe last year


Today is Joel's birthday! Last night as we were driving home from IKEA, completely exhausted, and car full of stuff for our new house, we decided to celebrate it next week when we've settled a bit more in our place and feel more relaxed. It's Miller tradition anyway... we hardly ever celebrate birthdays on the actual day. Joel doesn't like surprises and likes to plan what we do to celebrate.... no pressure for me and apparently more fun for him! Last year for his big 30th, we watched a movie at the theatre in Bulawayo, spent a night away and ate dinner at our favourite restaurant in Zimbabwe, New Orleans. I believe the birthday cake followed sometime in January due to severals delays, including a power outage about 10 minutes into trying to bake it the first time. Hopefully he'll get this year's cake before 2008!

Happy birthday to my amazing husband! I celebrate you and your life and am thankful I get to share it with you!
