Newport In A Jiffy

Over the weekend we took a quick getaway to Newport (specifically the Pelican Hill Resort which is OMG to die for). We were with the Merrills (who invited us and planned the amazing trip - thank you!) and the Pulliams. It was quick but we managed to hit the beach, eat, run on the beach, eat, dip at the pool, eat, enjoy the resort, and eat some more. Actually, the entire trip I was wondering where my next meal was coming from and am still feeling full from the weekend! Erin's little sister Alex came with us and took care of the kiddles at night. Traveling with someone to help out with the kids was a luxury and I think I am forever spoiled! Chase, as usual, was wonderful. He is growing up so fast. I can actually reason with him a bit now and it is such a weird feeling to have this little man that you can kindasorta talk to and not a complete baby who cannot do anything for himself. I say it all the time but everyday is so much fun with him and it was great to enjoy this trip with the little guy.

One of my favorite wedding bloggers Jasmine Star shoots a lot of weddings at Pelican. There was a wedding right here Saturday night. Ryan did his best to stalk it to see if Jasmine was shooting but he was quickly turned away. Apparently friends of blogstalkers of blogs don't have much pull around the resort. 
Chase trying to clean up the beach. Sorry kid, there appears to be more sand than you can handle...
Look what swept ashore. Chase seems less than thrilled. He loved it though. Really...




Thanks again Merrills for an awesome trip!
