Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia De Rossi are making this year the most amazing yet. The famous host turned 60 this January and the couple seems to be celebrating ever since.

The pair has shared photos from their trip to Africa. Not long ago, Portia surprised Ellen during her show with a Wildlife Fund set up in her name. She was happy to announce: “Ellen, you will carry on Dian’s [Fossey] legacy by giving them a permanent home in Rwanda. Now, you will join Dian as a protector and champion of these amazing animals, the mountain gorillas. Happy birthday!”

“This was a trip I’ve been waiting my whole life to make,” Ellen captioned one of the photos. See them below.
