birthdays & vacations

birthdays & vacations are my all time favorite things ever!! birthdays because it is a day all for me & vacations because i get to relax so very very much!

i had a wonderful--the best ever birthday this year! i turned 25 on may 6 (i know a quarter of century). it was so great! on thursday night the stokes, jacksons & justin surprised me with a cake & gifts! we partied all night long! on friday jus & i relaxed together during the day & then he took me to indy that night. we walked my favorite part of the canals & had dinner in the city! it was incredible! thank you babe! i included some pictures on the photos section of our blog--check them out!

on sunday i left for va for the next 5 days it was a wonderful time spent with my family! they spoiled me & gave me another birthday celebration (i racked up 3 this year). i was also there to celebrate mother's day with my mom--i am glad, she is a spectacular woman! i spent the week watching anne of green gables with my grandma ruth, hiking with my brother josh, going to amanda's softball game (pictures under photos) & spending late nights with em talking & waxing our legs! it was a beautiful week! i love you family!

i'll wrap up with a little update about justin & i: we are going to be moving on from dear ol' marion at the end of july. we have had a wonderful experience here we will never forget this chapter of life. after the lemasters family vacation we will be picking up & moving to los angeles. we are super excited for this next stage & are sure there are many adventures awaiting us there.
