Good morning (or afternoon- still adjusting to the time change) from Denver! As FinCon is wrapping up today the fun has increased accordingly. For those in town for the conference my post topic needs no explanation ;)

Got to snap a pic with @moneysmart, what a nice guy!

Since most of you aren’t bloggers, I’ll keep the recap brief. I just want to mention that there were some great presentations that I will use to improve my articles here and to provide more value to you.

One of the highlights for me was the Ally Blogger Quest, where myself and a few other bloggers were part of a scavenger hunt. Bloggers tried to find us and take a picture to win $250. For a shy person, this was a big blessing – I got to meet wonderful people through it. I hope they bring this contest back again next year!

I also want to mention that we’re having another big giveaway this week for Couple Money’s 3rd anniversary. This year we’re giving away a tablet; I just love having a fun prize to give to you as a way of saying thank you.

    Elle! I think we were chatting a bit in a group yesterday and I didn’t even realize it.

      Lol, yes I think you’re right! It’s so hard to keep track of everyone, especially in group chats.

    Traveling as parents is different right? We usually go southwest too…families need those free bags.
