Newport Vacation!

Much to our dismay we are back from our vacation! We had such a fun time! We have been going to Newport for one week every year since I have been in the family and it is a week that we all look forward to! Bailey absolutely loved the beach! She played all day every day on the beach and never took a rest. The girl was so worn out from playing on the beach and lack of sleep! She got to share a room with her cousins, which I think was just as exciting as the beach! She got pummeled by waves a couple of times, but that didn't bother her one bit! She got right back up and was ready to keep playing! Her Aunt Lanae took her for walks on the beach to find sea shells, which she really enjoyed. On one of those walks they found a crab and much to my suprise Bailey thought it was kinda cool. She didn't want to touch it, but she sure liked to look!



The last day we were in Newport, the girls all went to get pedicures and the little girls just got their nails painted. This is the color Bailey chose! Bright green! She went right for this color and then wouldn't change her mind. I kept trying to talk her into pink or red, but she had her little heart and mind set on bright green! She got floweres put on her big toes, but they got a little smudged because she had a hard time sitting still!


For some reason Spencer is always able to get our children to fall asleep with him. I must be too anxious all the time because I can't ever get them to fall asleep unless I am bouncing them! I just thought that was such a cute picture of SWBy and Spence.
Above is a picture of SWBy with Grandpa and Grandma Crabtree. Friday after our Newport vacation we drove down to Escondido to see my family before driving back to Utah! Lucky for us they babysat Bailey and SWBy so Spence and I could go see "The Dark Knight!" We loved the movie!
We had such a fun week! Above is a picture of SWBy with his cousin Emma! She is such a nice cousin, always wanting to hold SWBy. Below is a picture of Bailey with her cousin Eliza! Bailey sure enjoyed seeing her cousins and loved spending the week with them!

I'm so unbelievably jealous. What a fun trip. Smith keeps asking me and asking me if we can go see the ocean.

I'm glad to hear you liked the Dark Knight. Ian and I want to go see it. Although, I use to LOVE all the batman movies, and I'm a little bugged about how they are starting to get a little more creepy. I wasn't a big fan of the last one. Plus I don't really like the guy who plays Batman now. For some reason I still want to see the Dark Knight.

How fun. I am so jealous I want to go on a vacation like that soon. I think Payton would really like the beach, so Reddin and I might try to plan that next year. I love the pictures.
