Newport Beach… one of my absolute favorite trips in the world. We’ve been coming to Newport every summer since I was a little girl and I can’t believe I now have my little girl to enjoy it with!
…my little girl who can’t seem to stay still for pictures for the life of her these days. Always on the run!
We took it pretty easy while we were there this year. We had lots of pool time, went to the beach one day, went shopping and, of course, hit up all of the restaurants we love to go to while there! I’m just still trying to get used to how much sunscreen Penelope requires… she definitely got her dads skin! 😂
One of my favorite things to do while in Newport is walking the Crystal Cove state park. It is truly one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and I highly recommend you go if you ever find yourself in Southern California. And of course, you need to end it with a shake and fries at their shake shack!
One thing we did a little bit differently this year was rent a boat and boat around Balboa Island! We loved cruising and looking at all of the incredible homes surrounding the island. My brother-in-law also had the Zillow app out the entire time which was equal parts fascinating… and depressing.
And on our last day, we celebrated my 27th birthday at Disneyland! Why do I feel so old when I say 27? I am a 21-year-old at heart, I swear! But 27… man.. I’m getting old haha!
My heart!
Penelope LOVED twinning with her cousins at Disneyland and couldn’t stop chasing them around and twirling in her pretty Minnie dress.
And it’s never a stop at Disneyland without a stop at Willie’s churros! Our favorite churro stand!
Hope you guys are having the best week! I’ll be posting our NYC pictures soon so stay tuned! And if you want an alert via email each time I have a new post, click here.
