Hubby's Birthday


Well, yesterday was Vince's 36th birthday...and he's a little anxious about his ever-approach- ing 40th...

Although, I think his anxiety will soon sub-side. The combination of getting older, AND not having children yet has had him a little panicky --
but, I know his anxiety will have been but a dream when he's celebrating his 37th birthday next year with our precious son or daughter from Ethiopia...
...God-willing!!!

For his birthday, we stayed Thursday night in Branson (we're only 25 miles away) -- we went to the Tanger outlet mall (the baby clothes were oh-so-tempting), went out for dinner, and then spent the evening and following morning in our hotel room watching Animal Planet & HGTV. We don't have cable/dish at home, so, that's usually the highlight of our travels. I know, I know...all you parents of young children, don't shame us for being so boring before children come...
Friday night I surprised Vince by prearranging for some friends to drop-in on/surprise us at a local coffee shop...we had a great evening.
It was a wonderfully, relaxing two days -- but I'm sure we'd both admit the greatest part of Vince's birthday was contemplating how different our lives will be on his birthday next year!!! And, oh, for the better!!

When we stay in a hotel for vacation, we LOVE watching Food Network, because we don't get it at home. We are boring too :)

God bless,

Happy Birthday, Vince! I hear you about the cable. We have "cable lite" so that's one of the big perks of staying in a hotel!

Happy Birthday, Vince! I'm a little late.

My favorite thing to do at a hotel? Watch BBC World and BBC shows. :) Doesn't take much...

love, jill :)
