Newport Coast!

We just spent the last week at this fabulous place...Marriott Newport Coast Villas. Every time Tyler and I visit this area of Southern California our goal and desire to one day call this home is reaffirmed. We absolutely love Newport Coast!This resort is AMAZING! There is so much to do with kids.
We had fun playing in the kid's club, swimming, playing at the park, sports court, and sand box. On Saturday, Tyler's parents came out and we played at Fashion Island (one of my favorite spots) and we introduced them to Sprinkles.

Taylor got to make her 1st Build A Bear. Thanks Grandma J!!!
The bear is officially called Paigeabaloo (named inspired by Taylor's best friend, Paige).
Ashlyn wanted one too. She tried to take off with this bear and stroller.
We threw LOTS of pennies into the fountain.
So who came up with the idea to throw money into fountains? It is outrageous how many coins are just thrown into water by kids who think their wishes will come true if they do it. I REALLY think I need one in my front yard.


On Sunday my family came out and we played at the beach and had a BBQ. We discovered our new favorite little beach spot...Crystal Cove (Future residence of the Jorgenson's).

And unfortunately this is where my picture taking ends because during my attempt to get this picture of my little beach babies, I dropped my less than a month old camera into the water. It was safely recovered but refused to turn on. Luckily we did buy the accidental warranty however it will take a couple weeks for us to get a new one. LAME!!!

The rest of the week we played at the pool, the beach, and Wild Rivers. The water park was a huge success for our family. The kids LOVED it! My cousin stayed with us to give us an extra pair of hands and so every night Tyler and I were able to go out alone and sit in the hot tub, take a walk, and hang out at Irvine Spectrum. Thanks Kelsea! We couldn't have done it without you. I love little trips like these and all the chaos that comes with traveling while in this stage of our lives. Such great memories are created!

Such fun! Thanks for letting us be a part of it, though Grandpa J says next time we get to go to the beach...he's not so big on Malls!

We agree that Newport Coast is amazing! We have been so lucky to be at UC Irvine and just up the street from that area. We hope we can one day buy a home in this area too! But for now student housing has been great!
