Business Trip to LA

This past weekend I was gone for five days in Los Angeles. My company had a booth at CHA in the LA Convention Center. This show is for retailers to come and buy all the product for their store for the next six months til summer CHA. It was so much fun! I am still recovering from the little sleep I got but it was well worth it.
The first day I was there was kindof a free day, which I spent with my parents. We went to one of my very favorite Mexican Restaurants, Poquito Mas and then we spent the rest of the day in Santa Monica finished off with dinner at Pitfire Pizza...yumm.
I checked into my room later that day and found out I had been upgraded! You know it's gonna be good when the front desk tells you your room is on a level that requires you to swipe your card in the elevator! All my co-workers were super jealous cause I was placed in a suite, with a king size bed all by myself. I must say I truly enjoyed the luxury.
The next four days were spent working at the booth til 6:30pm then dinner somewhere near by after. I was glad I enjoyed the warm weather the first day I was there cause every other day was spent indoors. We went to The Grove one night, which was really fun, I hadn't been there in a long time and I really miss it. I just wish we could have spent more time there.
Other than that we didn't do too much, but I really enjoyed getting to know my co-workers and staying in a suite!! Logan spent the time doing homework, going to school, playing some video games and missing me :)
It's great to be home, even if it is freezing here in Utah. Enjoy a few pictures from my trip!
