Preface: Google is having trouble fixing the "Follow". I can't follow other blogs and you may have issues trying to follow mine.
I have to thank my dear friend Sara for electronically wishing me a happy birthday the day before my birthday, US-time. Hers was the first wish to come in -- the second was the University of Michigan Alumni Association, and next the UNC Alumni Association. All this moving and I still haven't managed to lose those guys.
The weather for my birthday weekend was what we are coming to see as typical - warm enough to play outside in shorts if it's not raining, but cool enough to build a fire if it is raining. Thus, Andrew made steak on the grill and still built me a fire in the fireplace.
The wee lass worked on her art. You can barely see the edge of our artificial Noble Fir Christmas tree purchased with much hassle from the States, and of course boxes -- nothing says "Home" like open boxes.
Here is her tremendous creation - "mom and dad and their thrones." Bold, daring, yet with an endearing sentimental twist.
One of the great things about Kenya is that Andrew can indulge in buying me flowers whenever, and neither of us feel guilty about how much he spent - because it's not that much! Aren't they gorgeous!
