I did not just get a BirthDAY this year I got a BirthWEEK. Because of busy schedules the Newson’s did a big Birthday Breakfast the Monday before (Sept. 19th) my birthday. We had Stuffed French Toast, bacon, a delicious egg/hashbrown casserole, fruit and OJ. For dessert I got a cake of donuts with candle’s on top. It was so delicious!
Throughout the week I went shopping with Mom and got some new cute cloths. On Thursday, my actual birthday, Mom and I went shopping and then went to Erica’s house. We went out to lunch and had some girl time. (Thanks Rich for taking the girls!)
For my birthday I asked Ben to give me an adventure! We left Thursday (after Ben’s final Softball Game at Crocs- yay Ben!) and headed up to Leadville to visit Mat and Andi. We spent Friday biking, taking historical tours and going to museums (more on that later). Friday night we went to Turquoise Lake and had a fire with hotdogs and smores. The leaves were so beautiful and when the sun went down we got to see some shooting stars (and what we think was a falling satellite).

Saturday we work up and went on a hike to a ghost town. The hike was 4 miles round trip but we decided to go up a little further and see if we could find the abandoned mine- so I think it might have ended up being 6 miles. It was so beautiful up there just making my love of autumn more concrete. The ghost town was cool and the old buildings were exciting to go through!!
Saturday night Andi and I went into town (Silverthorn and Frisco) for the Women’s Broadcast. On the way we stopped at some outlets and after at least 20 pairs I found a pair of jeans-yay. And even better, they were marked down to $6.00- how can you beat that? The Broadcast was great (they fed up cheese cake in the middle of it) and I loved President Uchtdorf’s talk.
And of course we played games every night!!! It was so much fun to go up and see Mat, Andi and the kids. We defiantly had adventures and got to spend it with family!! It was a great BirthWEEK!
