We were lucky enough to fly to Newport Beach for the first week of July, which fell over the 4th and Ashley's birthday. We stayed in a beach house with the entire Heath family. There are 31 of us. It was great fun. We played at the beach, went for walks, celebrated Ashley's birthday, rode in Brian's kayak, and just hung out. My kids were in heaven. Mia still asks to go back to the beach house. Justin and Mia were so tired there they would fall asleep wherever.
We partied on Ashley's birthday. We bought her a helium balloon for the morning with a pancake breakfast. Then Hans and I took her to a gift store where she picked out a turtle made out of shells, then we played buddy tag on the beach and had a lunch party. We ate oreos and did some crafts. She had a blast.
Lots of cute Grandkids with the Heath Grandparents.
We spent an entire morning taking turns riding in the kayak. It was fun. Ashley loved digging for creepy crawling things in the sand while she waited. Hans and I each got to take turns. It was a great workout. Katelyn was doing cartwheels and press handstands on the ledge. It was slightly frightening for the adult spectators.

I assume you mean Newport Beach in California and not in Rhode Island which is only an hour from where we live, right? 'Cause that would just be mean to find you you were so close and we didn't know! :)
