10 of 20 years celebrated!

>> 8.03.2011

ok, so our 10 year "legal" wedding anniversary is not until Aug. 18 but you have to take what you can get when you don't have a regular babysitter and Nana is leaving back to Ireland in a few days so.....

We headed up to Denver for an evening. Stayed in the Grand Hyatt downtown, walked to Maggiano's for dinner, relaxed by the pool (TWICE!), and walked to Sam's #3 on Curtis St. for breakfast the next morning.

Did you know that Sam's #3 was recently featured on a show on the Food Network called "diner's, drive-in's & dive's?. It was. Cool. But that didn't make up for the fact that their omlettes were super dry and only so-so. All in all we still enjoyed sitting on their outdoor patio, drinking our coffee and watching the world go by.

Did you know that Maggiano's is fantastic? We had never eaten there and normally do not do pasta out but decided to give it a try. It's a really classy but casual restaurant with FIVE star service! They knew it was our anniversary and treated us awesome. They even brought us champagne which was totally unexpected. Honestly we were a little blown away by their food and superior service. We'll be back for sure!

We fully intended on visiting the museum, but traffic snarls got us to our hotel 2 hours later than we wanted to and we didn't have the energy the next day to go so we kinda blew it off. Maybe next time.

It was really nice for the 2 of us to get away on our own. Love my husband of 10 years and my partner of nearly 20 years.

View from our room. I just love the big city buildings & staying right in the heart of downtown.
