Our Day started on the pier at Newport Beach. We walked to the end and went to a restaurant called Ruby's. While we were waiting for our table to be ready the kids watched the people fish off of the pier. They also enjoyed watching the planes pulling banners. Then we went down to the beach. Everything is fun and games until the kids get dirty. And they got dirty! Yes, he is eating a dirt covered Funyuns. Appetizing No?
(On the way off the beach as we were leaving Laney decided to throw a tantrum by throwing her self face down on the beach. I have never seen a little girls face more dirty. She got sand in her eyes, nose and mouth. Blake and I both chuckled and said "perhaps she won't be throwing any more tantrums like that.") We tried some preventative maintenance to keep the kids clean with the occasional Ocean dip and it worked for Laney. She loved the Ocean. Gavin on the other hand wanted nothing to do with it. He actually started to cry if we even suggested it.

By the end our kids were exhausted. Laney fell asleep on my shoulder which is something that she NEVER does. We went back to the hotel took a bath and then back out we went for dinner at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.

Gavin and Laney both got balloons from the restaurant and were super pleased.

However, Laney lost her balloon and it was devastating. The look on her face....sad.

When we were all done we packed the kids in the car and headed back to the hotel. This time Laney ended up sleeping on the floor.

All in all I would say it was a great little trip.
