The Family Vacation Planning Woes

   So we are planning this week long trip to San Diego in July.  Fun right?  Nope. We decided to make this trip about three weeks ago.  We are really excited about going, but it would be easier if we had wings on our backs to get us there or our own private jet. Option one would be way cooler. Anyways, I've been on the computer looking for plane tickets for an hour and I'm getting no where.  Who really wants to spend $800 dollars on two round trip tickets when you could do alot of other things with that money?  Like keep it:)
   But family is family and Williams' family happens to live in an amazing city across the US.  Plus, they have never seen Haneilia.  And who wouldn't want there family the opportunity to be able to meet the most amazing kid on the planet?  So we are stuck in between a rock and a hard place.  Do we buy the $800 tickets or do we buy buddy passes from my wonderful brother who works for an airline and take a chance on getting two seats on the plane or being booted onto standby.  Ugh!!!  So we shall see what happens.
Having a kid totally changes the way you travel too.  Needless to say, we have to bring our whole house with us when we go.  I don't think the inlaws have a spare crib, car seat and stroller for that matter.  So we have to load all that with us too when we head west.  It should be pretty interesting.
