Ryan turns 26!

I think this year will be a big year for our family.  Ryan has been working so hard on his Masters and at 3M to provide for his family.  However, I am ready to have him home a bit more this year! :)  We are thrilled to think that on Tuesday (12/13) he took his last final exam until his exams next December! He is taking off this spring and summer semesters and we couldn't be happier!  It is time to have time for swimming, golfing, family dinners every night, walks, park visits, etc.  No more school until 9:30pm 2-3 nights a week and studying through his lunch breaks at work and on the weekends-- now it is family time for a bit!

Jana and John made a pumpkin cake that we had on 12/13 after he finished his final. 
On Ryan's real birthday, he took the little ones and I to the airport and wished us off to AZ.  Followed by dinner with his parents at Mendakota. 

John was SUPER proud of the cake Jana and him made. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN!

I CAN'T WAIT TO CELEBRATE WITH YOU WHEN YOU GET DOWN TO ARIZONA!!  XXOO
