Grandma and Grandpa came down from Washington and got to spend a whole week with their granddaughter! It was a fantastic week and we hope they got their fill of Libby-time! It worked out really nicely because they got to watch her while Brad and I were at work, so they got some quality alone time together, too. As you might imagine, she was one VERY spoiled girl this week! ;)
On Saturday we all went to the Wild Animal Park in San Diego. My parents and my sister's family joined us, too, so we pretty much took over the place - it was great!

Brad, Libby, and me on the tram - oh, yeah, and Jen, too!
The gang enjoying the tram tour - you can see some of the animals in the background if you look closely.
The day started out pretty warm, but cooled down a lot. So, here's Libby all dolled up in every blanket, burp-cloth, and hat we had for her. She was all smiles the whole time! (She and I had a nice bonding moment with the rhinos - the baby rhino was nursing the same time Libby was!)
What do you think? How does Libby size up with the gorillas?
Grandma and Daddy gave Libby her first bath in the big-girl bath tub. Looks like it was a hit!
One day after work I decided to take them down to the harbor area. We just barely missed the sunset, but it was still beautiful!
Overlooking the tidepools in Dana Point. It got a little chilly, but we had a great time anyhow.
On their last day I had the day off of work for Veteran's day, so we went out to a nice breakfast and then headed up PCH to the Newport Beach temple grounds. It was a gorgeous day and Libby enjoyed her first trip to the temple with her grandparents! Families are forever! ;)
Before dropping them off at the airport, I decided to take them by Roger's Gardens. Boy was that a hit! Diann LOVED it! They had all their Christmas stuff out and you could tell they were trying to rival Diann's tree. I dunno...I think Diann still wins - her tree is amazing! We can't wait for Libby to get to see it for herself when we go to Washington for Christmas. Thanks for a great visit, Grandma and Grandpa - Libby sure loves you both!! (and we do, too!)
They are wonderful Grandparents. I loved the bracelets Diann made for Libby! We were so lucky to get to see them, too!
