I’d like to wish a Happy 50th Birthday to the man who loves, leads, protects, teaches, entertains, and provides for our family–my wonderful husband! Joel is rock solid, tends to our needs, offers wise counsel, lives by the Word, leads us in Bible study, washes copious amounts of pots and pans, is a work horse in the yard, and brings stability during our most fragile moments (and with 3 women and a 9-yr old boy in the house, emotions can certainly run high at times!)
We celebrated early with a trip to the beach with the kids and Joel’s sweet mama, the woman who delivered her big New Year’s Eve baby 50 years ago today! For some fun entertainment on our trip, my mother-in-law brought Joel’s baby book for us to look through. In one entry, she’d written that, as a little boy, Joel wanted to be a zoo keeper when he grew up. I’d say that’s exactly what he got with our bunch!
Happy 50th Birthday to the KEEPER of our ZOO!

Happy Birthday Joel!! He for sure blesses our family; installs car wipers, cuts down trees, installs curtain rods, changes tires, takes care of our Ellie, shoots off the best firework entertainment and so many more countless acts of service!! Rob and I always say how blessed we are to have you as neighbors. Hope he feels special on his day!!
