Saturday
We flew in and hung out with Jed's sister n fam, went to my fave Indian restaurant Punjabi Tandoor, and then hit up Daiso (Japanese dollar store) before heading to Jed's grandparents' to crash.
Sunday
Monday
Started off the day right with Pancake House w/Jed's grandparents, then stopped by the Escondido Mall on way to a Pomona College tour & Hayatt Mediterranean Food with Jed's bestie Rou-Jia. We then stayed the night with her (and her cute kitty cat, Sammy) in prep for our Disney days.

Sunday
The 3:30am alarm to head home was not particularly welcome but we got out, returned our rental car, and got home safe and sound. We were glad we got to spend the week with family and friends! Miss you guys! And now back to the rainy PNW with sunkissed skin and happy hearts. :)
Sunday
It was hot and humid but we went on a couple walks around Del Mar (5 miles!), hung out with Jed's awesome grandparents, and then hung out with the Jensen's (Jed's sister) again.

Tuesday & Wednesday
Disneyland!!! We did 2 days and had a blast trying out new restaurants, checking out old rides done up with new themes (lots of Star Wars stuff in Tomorrowland right now), and generally having an amazing time in the happiest place on earth!

Friday
Because we can't get enough of the Original Pancake House or hanging out with fam, we met up with Jed's other grandpa Thomas and Uncle Dave for a great catch up. We then headed to Balboa Park and instead of hitting up the many museums, opted to check out the Japanese Friendship Garden. I'm sooo glad we did. It was so gorgeous and one of my new favorite places in SD. We had dinner with the Jensen's and stayed over way past their bedtime (yes, the adults) catching up.

Saturday
We had a short visit when the Jensen's stopped by and got to say bye to the kids. I mopped up my tears (I really miss my nieces and nephew okay?) and then we went to my favorite pizza place, Leucadia Pizza, with Jed's grandparents. There was a big street fair going on in Encinitas so we checked that out and happened to meet up with one of our besties from Rexburg, Maddy, and her mom and baby girl!
