Chilling on the plane. Our first leg was an empty flight so Leah had plenty of room to roam. We weren't so lucky on any of the other flights.

Our hotel... let's win some $$$
San Diego Wildlife Safari
Chad had a BIG surprise for me at the Safari Park, he had one of my best friends from college, Jess, and her family meet us there!!! I was so shocked when I saw them! Jess lives about 3.5 hours from San Diego and I haven't seen her in at least 5 years. We got to spend the whole day at the park with them. It was such an amazing surprise and I can't believe Chad pulled it off without me having any idea! What a great hubby I have!!!
This is after mom left.. looks like I missed some great R & R by the pool.

In the cabana, living the life of luxury...
Hanging at the hotel
Favorite game at the hotel, playing in the mirror.

Dad and Grandpa also got some golfing in and time with dad's friend Bryan. It really was a great mini vacation, nice weather, fun activities and we were so excited to get to see Grandma and Grandpa..... (and mom's work went well too :-)
