Digging for Birthday Treasure

Ben is all about birthday surprises.  This year he surprised me 3 days early with a birthday treasure hunt.  He had me digging for buried treasure out at the lake, counting paces in the park, rummaging through construction sites, and climbing trees.  With each clue I got a little more moola to spend on myself, he got me a laptop, and the hunt ended in a fabulous massage.  He never disappoints!

These are some snippets from the poems he wrote for my treasure hunt...

If you've made it this far that's a good beginning
You're on the right track, you're totally winning.
Hold on to that green stuff, it's only a start,
There's more to come if you just do your part!

Now get out of that hole, get back up top.
It's your birthday week, no time to stop.
The last clue was tricky, a little bit rough,
Now let's make this next one not quite as tough.

He is so cute!!

Since my actual birthday was the day before Easter, we spent it going to Easter Egg hunts, coloring Easter Eggs, and in the evening we attended the General Women's Session of Conference.  We did sneak in a birthday lunch, opened a few more presents and hit up Zupas after the session.  Another lovely birthday!

We scored free kids meals at Iggy's during our Eater Egg hunt,
so that is where we went for my birthday lunch! 

Didn't have enough candles, but we found these
and they just happened to add up to my age!
