Newport Beach: Crystal Cove

In July, we had family come to town...Mimi, Grandpa Frank & Auntie Harleigh!  We had a lot of fun enjoying the summer with family.  We went to Newport Beach with Mimi & Grandpa Frank one day and we had a blast!  We went to Crystal Cove - an awesome beach getaway!  We had lunch at The Beachcomber Cafe right on the sand.  We had the best patio seat in the house!  Mimi and I also explored the beach cottages a bit scoping out the one we plan on renting for a future trip!  (*True Fact: there's a cottage there that was used in the movie Beaches!) We went tide pooling and the kids had so much fun exploring!  Here are a few pictures from our trip to the O.C. :)

On our way to Crystal Cove!

The tide pools were really cool!  Arden had fun exploring and Anderson just tried to navigate the rocky pools.  We did see some cool sealife; a star fish, sea anenome, different small fish, & lots of tiny crabs.  Did I mention the barnacles!  Ouch!  So glad I brought their aqua shoes!!
