We did what we used to do before kids...headed to Denver for shopping and a park :) On the way up, we stopped in Caste Rock to make a return at Children's Place and then got into trouble at Nike outlet and Under Armour! It was fun.
Then we headed to City Park in Denver. They had a fountain there that we could paddle boat to. Since the traditional gift for a 7th Anniversary is copper...we decided to throw pennies in a fountain to celebrate! Kyle & Jen do the traditional anniversary gift thing and I thought that was fun! So we copied them :) Never too late to start, right?
There was an IMAX theatre and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science right by the park, so we parked there.
Pretty rose bushes in back of the museum.
The park.
Our shopping bag from Under Armour made a nice little backpack to carry around!
Holding hands with my man! It was really nice out! It wasn't suppose to be which is why we cancelled the plan of going tubing in Boulder!
A few photos under the shade tree.
I love this man!
I can't imagine a better partner in life!
There's our fountain!
What did people do before timers?
Okay! On to the boating!
I needed a little pick me up. Shopping must have worn me out! Thankfully, the rental place had Mountain Dew!
Our fountain in the distance!
So it's a little dirty, but it's a fountain! :)
Getting closer!
Ready to go with our pennies.
A toast beforehand!
Here's a video of our tossing. It got kind of hairy because the water started blowing right on us and getting us (and our camera) all wet!
And more tossing...at a greater distance from the fountain :)
Matt's turn.
You can see Matt's penny in the air!
Yay! Happy 7 years!
Silliness.

What a fun paddle boating trip :)
Walking out of the park. I thought these trees were cool.
How'd we miss this? I wonder if we could have gotten out of our boats to get on it!?
A shout out to Kyle & Jen..."V" for VanHorn!
They take pictures of the letters of their last name to frame and put on their wall! So naturally, we thought of them :)
And a butterfly.
Quick change in the car to go to 16th street!
Ready to hit downtown Denver!
Lovely parking lot.
H&M! It's been so long!
We shopped here for awhile! I used to shop here in Indy...before kids :)
Fun area of town. Little breezy.
Needed to get home to put our boys to bed. But decided to stop for dinner in Caste Rock on the way home. What fancy place did we go, do you ask? 5 GUYS...burgers & fries :) I loved this coke machine. All touch screen. Tons of flavors. So cool.
And it was chilly so I got wear my new jacket from H&M!
They make delicious burgers AND fries!
It was such a fun day! Thanks so much dad and mom Witt for taking care of the boys!
