Last weekend we took a "mini-vacation" to Topeka to visit mom and dad. It was so nice to just get away ... even for a few days!
We went over to the Statehouse on Sunday for a little tour. It was fun to look around when no one else was there ... lots of great photo ops!
The whole family on the steps outside the old Supreme Court
Papa Don and his kiddos in his new office ... nice new digs!
The kids "exploring" the construction at the statehouse (don't worry ... it was a non-hard hat zone)

2010 Representatives
Back row, center!
The Pledge of Alligiance ... I don't think Maggie knows what is going on. She was rubbing her belly. :)
Family shot! ... Bruce is pointing at Grandma Betsy across the stairs. :)
Famous John Brown painting
Freshly polished copper railing
Other interesting architectural elements ... stained glass and newly painted ceilings.
Another amazing mural.
We had such a great time! Only wish the weekend could have lasted longer!
