Tyler turned the ripe old age of 12! </div>

Justin and I celebrated our 13th Wedding Anniversary. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It landed on Easter this year so we didn't do too much...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I love that man of mine more than I could ever express!</div>

We had an Egg Hunt, a campfire, and rode horses.</div>

The school that I work for asked me to do the yearbook again. <br />
I spent many hours taking pictures and organizing.<br />
Because they are building a new school and tearing down the old, <br />
I focused on the history of the building and the building itself.<br />

I know a lot of other things have happened in the last 4 months,<br />
but the best has to be that we finished another school year!<br />
Blood, sweat, and a lot of tears went into the last school year (at least for me)....<br />
and just thinking about it gives me anxiety!!<br />
But I'm proud to announce that I MADE IT!!<br />
Oh, and the kids did too.<br />
To reward ourselves, we decided to get Lagoon Season Passes....<br />

Happy Birthday to my little Blakie! <br />
<br />
He's our LEGO lovin', chocolate eating, bike riding, joke making, game playing, outdoor loving, bug finding, people caring, Star Wars watching, hunk-of-a-little man! <br />
<br />
Life would be soo boring without this sweet boy!<br />
<br />
We love you! Happy Birthday! <br />
