So as you can see, we had a great time at our summer beach vacation. This year Adams parents joined us and so did my niece Isabel and nephew Trevor. My parents also decided to join us which was a nice surprise! They all got there on Saturday which gave me and Adam time to have our kids to ourselves. Each one of our kids boogie boarded pretty much the WHOLE day. Makenzie always goes off and makes friends and stays in the water catching the waves. Shes really good at it too. Parker and Taylor mark this as the first year they actually got in past the shallows. (we usually pull them on the boards in the very shallow area) They had a blast- and as luck would have it, the camera got left at the hotel. Oh well! Adam and I trade off on who gets to go in with Kenze, but this year I took my "Twilight" book so I was okay to stay under our big shade tent and devour the book... again... for the third time!
The rest of the time the two younger ones went about the normal part of just hanging in the shallow areas on the boards and digging in the sand. Everyday we were lucky enough to have front row parking- if you have ever been there, you would understand the nightmare of finding good parking! When the Wallicks go the beach- it is ALL DAY LONG! I hate leaving, Newport is one of my favorite spots to vacation and we have done it every summer since 1998.
We did Downtown Disney and enjoyed our families. The fireworks and the excitement of the music is always fun for the kids, especially Taylor who is still in love with "Build A Bear". "Bubba Gumps" is a GREAT place to eat if you ever see one- you have to try it! ( I should get paid for all the advertising I do on my blog huh?)
We had a blast, don't want to bore you, just wanted to share some pictures with you all!
