Newport Beach Vacation

DISNEYLAND
Our family trip this year was to Newport beach for four days. We started at Disneyland for a couple of hours, but decided to go because it was so crowded.


NEWPORT BEACH

We then went and checked into the Newport Marriott Villas. This property is AMAZING. I loved it here. Very family friendly, even to large families. I recommend it to anyone....

This is us on the property......can you see the ocean behind us? It is on a bluff, so you get endless views of the ocean, you can't beat that.
This is at their rec area: Basketball, golf, park, and fire pit.....it was sunset so it's hard to make out the ocean behind Travis.
Kamryn was so funny and insisted on wearing these goggles the whole time at the pool. They kept fogging up, I have no idea how she could see out of them!

BEACH TIME
Corona Del Mar

Drew & Dad

Kamryn walked down a little sand hill and fell, so I had to snap a picture of her.
Kamryn kept trying to steal my towel

OUT TO DINNER AT HUNTINGTON PIER
There is a fun pier at Huntington Beach with a Ruby's Diner at the end of it. I thought it would be fun to eat there. It serves yummy hamburgers, shakes and fries. We had a fun time watching surfers, fisherman, and seals.

That night we got pizza and made smore's at the camp fire.
(the lady in the back round kept asking how many kids we had...funny)
There is something about being away from home as a family.....it takes you out of the ordinary and brings you together in a different way. I can't wait to return, and make more memories with our little family!!

looking at pictures and reading about your trip makes me excited to take trips when our kids are a little older. There are only so many things we can do right now that they would really enjoy and remember. Plus taking babies makes it a little harder to totally ENJOY yourself, if that makes sense. Loved all the pictures, it made me miss you guys. Hunter sat on my lap through the whole thing saying "who's that?" He was imitating Drews expressions.
