Talk about last minute!!!

Last Thursday Matt came downstairs in the afternoon and said to me 'would you want to go to Newport this weekend?' My reply, 'um, yes please!' ANYTHING to get out of this heat!!! Matt got a last minute meeting scheduled in LA on Monday morning so he thought that instead of flying in and out that day, that we could drive over and spend some time at the beach. He has a bunch of cousins out there so luckily it was a cheap and easy trip. We drove out on Saturday morning, spent the night at his cousins apartment in Newport, then on Sunday we drove up to Hermosa Beach and stayed with his cousins who have a house right on the strand/boardwalk. It was wonderful! We played at the beach, took walks on the boardwalk (very slowly since I am having some crazy contractions!) and just relaxed. It was fun to spend time with family as well. Hopefully we will be back in the fall with my family (hint, hint mom and dad!!!)
There is nothing better than a little girl in a bikini!

Matt's cousins, Chris and Jen (and Reggie)

She wouldn't step foot in the sand but had no problem pouring it all over herself!

Pretending to nap with daddy

Happy girl!

I look ginormous in this picture but it's the only family one we took!

Oh my gosh! I grew up in Redondo Beach, just down the street from Hermosa! I love Hermosa and grew up hanging there! Sounds like fun!
