Denver!

I recently got to travel to Denver for a work conference for a few days and got to enjoy some beautiful weather, time with Niki and Charlie and a king size bed and TV all to myself!


We were at a hotel right in the heart of downtown and that meant easy access to everything - including a Bubba Gumps directly across from our hotel! YUM!


The view from my window --- look at those beautiful mountains!


We got to spend a little time exploring Denver and this included a trip to their Capitol. 
It was similar to ours in Madison - but a lot more gold! 
 

Rotunda selfie! 
 

Both the house and senate were in session so we sat in to observe for a bit. They have a lot more fun than I would have expected :) 
 

Outside the capitol --- beautiful sunshine! 
 

We took a pedi cab to dinner --- the driver was great - he had planned to take us on a wild ride until we told him Kristen was pregnant --- I kinda want to go back and see what a "wild" ride is, given ours wasn't exactly tame! 
 

He took us on a detour down a beautiful street with lights --- Denver is really lovely! 
 

I got to talk to the boys a few times - this is a screen shot of us chatting. Isaac was laying on the table so he could get a better view of me. 
 

We met Niki and Charlie for dinner and then the 3 of us walked around downtown. This is a HUGE bear at the convention center - seemed like a good opp for a photo! 
 

Denver seems to like larger than life stuff --- here are Niki and Charlie posing like the sculptures behind them! 
Fun to see these two in their new world --- already told Patrick we need to go back and visit soon!
