I grew up going to Newport Beach almost every summer with my family. My mom loved the year round anticipation of the tradition. She loved the ocean air, relaxing, walks on the beach, watching the kids play, park n' swap, playing games and hitting the town at night. It was hard to do anything this summer in Newport without missing her so much.
It's the kids that keep up moving forward and having fun, they had non- stop fun in the sun, I know my mom is happy we continue to enjoy one of her favorite places together.

I have the best nieces and nephews. Haylee and Hannah helped so much with the kids. They are gonna be the best moms someday (very very far away)!!
My mom taught us to always try to extent the trip whenever possible. So after our week at the beach we stayed in a hotel on the 4th.
We also missed Jason's family, let's all plan now to make it happen next year!
