  San Deigo, Day 1 Sheryl picked us up at the airport about 6pm yesterday. Mela and Kate hit it off immediately. We drove over to Sheryl's house, where Janeen and her boys were waiting, and then Sheryl grilled up some dinner for us. We'd flown from Seattle to San Francisco, then changed planes and continued to San Diego. On neither flight were we offered any food, so we were all pretty hungry! The kids all played together and Kate hauled out her new Disney music CDs and they had a dance party.
Meanwhile The adults sat out on Sheryl's little patio and talked. It was very pleasant. Shery's putting us up in her house for the duration, and Kate and Mela had a nice sleep-over together (though they apparently wandered around the house eating apples at midnight! I completely missed that, being dead to the world myself, but Chris caught them). Later this afternoon I'll go pick up the SUV we're renting and then make good on my promise to take Kate out sight-seeing.
I think we'll save Sea World for tomorrow, but maybe I can find something else she'll enjoy today. We're joining the other moms and kids (most of whom are arriving Thursday night) for a trip to Legoland Friday. Wednesday work on getting set up for ComicCon begins.
