The monthly update...

Well that is what it seems to be at the moment. Things have been extremely busy everywhere, at work and at home.

I managed to run a little over the last month, but still not as much as I need to, but hey it has been busy.

School holidays have come and gone and it is the final stretch of the school year. During the school holidays we spent a week in Hazyview. It was totally awesome, and we have not been there in about two years. Staying just outside of the park(Kruger National Park) we drove in for the day. It was Adam's first time, and he got a chance to see Ellies and Giraffe up close. Devon just loves the park, outdoors, and holidaying! He was in seventh heaven all of the time.

My wife's fear of flying...

For those of you who have been following this blog since it's inception or alternatively know my wife, will know that she has a huge fear of flying. This fear is not due to the lack of flying, as she has done this on numerous occasions, it is just a fear that she has. We have a overseas trip in three weeks time, so my wife took drastic measures....

On Tuesday afternoon she took BIG steps to cure this fear.....

Yip, at the park she headed off to the iron bird and headed up the steps to sort out this fear for once and for all.

Well Done Love!

The countdown...

The holiday is just around the corner. 32 days!
Yip, that's right about a month to go. I spent last night chatting to one of my old school buddies who has moved to the UK(11 years ago) and that got me excited about my upcoming UK holiday. Not that I wasn't excited already. Now I'm even more so. I surfed the net to find info on where we are going to be staying . It is going to be a total blast.

It turns out my old school buddy owns a wine shop that is 0.2 miles away from the hotel we are staying in. I'll definitely be stopping by!

Today is my brother in-laws birthday. A big Happy Birthday to you... 37 today!

Catch up...

Just a short note to keep up to date with the goings on in Miller land... a chance to catch up!

This past week has been rather busy, with Adam's birthday, a birthday party, family lunch, work and the coffee business. This weekend was rather hectic, well Saturday at least. We arranged a party for Adam at 3pm on Saturday afternoon. The lapa cleaned, chairs set out, TV for the football and rugby games that afternoon and the braai ready for being fired up for later.
All was going extremely well until 2.45pm when the heavens literally opened and the rain came down, came down, came down and just kept on coming down. The rain continued till well after the party was over. My wife was doing the stress thing as things were not as she planned it, and now we had about 30 people in our house (not my wifes plan)! All went well and I think everybody enjoyed themselves.

The British holiday is drawing nearer and nearer. 35 days to go!!!! As you may be aware, we had to apply for a visa to visit the UK as a South African citizen. All the paperwork was done, photo's taken, a trip to Sandton and the application made. The visa's arrived today, so all is falling into place quite nicely. The excitement is growing even more now. Still not time to pack though. I'll have to wait a couple of more days for that I guess.

Keep watching for more updates....

Paperwork and some....

This post is an update on the holiday to Britain that I'm really looking forward to.

So today I learnt that as of the 3rd March this year, South Africans visiting the UK need to in possession of a visa. What this actually means is that if someone doesn't like your face, well then no entry.

Ok, it's not that bad, but the decision is out of your hands and lies in the hands of another.... GREAT!

Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork and some.....

Between Holidays

So I have been rather busy over the past few days. I enjoyed returning to the family in Umhlanga and took some time out to relax looking over the ocean and just enjoying and having time to breathe.

We returned from the coast on Saturday, to rush straight out to a friends Christmas Party. Then it was time to catch up on the washing and ironing as we are headed to Cape Town for two weeks to further our holiday and spend time with family. It's packing and washing and sorting out at the moment ahead of a long 15hour drive tomorrow.

Time waits for no one

Time just seems to be flying. I only have a couple of days before the school year comes to an end, and then it is time to rest and holiday hard. Why not, I've worked hard this year so now it is almost time to play hard.

We'll be visiting my brother and sister for the holidays. That can only mean one thing.... play hard! I'm really looking forward to it.

Back from holiday.

So I'm back from holiday with a couple of stories and photo's to share. Once I have sifted through and sorted the photo's I'll share with you what a wonderful holiday it was.
