We were invited to a BBQ / pool party this afternoon. So we rushed from one party to the other.

Kids LOVED being in the pool and they hardly came out of the water.

Andrew’s favorite part was the stunning view of the golf course right behind their backyard. After dinner, some of the golfers went out to play.

Feast!

They even have two gorgeous dogs.

Awww, look how sad Chloe looks… because we had to leave…

Thank you Lont’s family for having us over for awesome food and company!

We’re back in NJ just in time for the party!

This was a marvelous 1st birthday party.

Everything was just so pretty and dazzling!

The newest addition to the Mun family.  You guys look absolutely gorgeous.

Happy first, Eliana! Thanks for letting us be part of such special celebrations!

Where we are staying

Chloe knows that I take pictures whenever I see beautiful flowers, so she goes in front and gives me the camera ready smile.

We walked down the famous Bellevue ave.

Newport Mansions

A very  nice lady offered to take our family picture. Too bad we weren’t in focus…

Goodbye Newport until next time.

This dude woke me up at 7 am after going to bed at 10. I was expecting him to wake up much later, grrr. Chloe and Andrew were still sleeping so I took him out to take a walk around the hotel for little bit. He wanted to go to the pool again, so he got mad at me. Can you tell?

When he saw that I was going to take a picture of him, he turned around and sat down.He’s quite the character.

Finally everyone’s up and we can have some breakfast!

My sweet munchkins

Newport, here we come!

We arrived at this beautiful hotel around 8pm and Andrew had a wonderful idea of checking out the indoor pool before the kids go to bed.

It was the best idea he had during the trip! We had the whole pool to ourselves and had a great time being silly and just playing. Kids went to bed around 10pm!

Passing through Boston

We stopped by Providence where I went to college many years ago. Ahhh, the good ole memories…

We played at Brown Campus

I absolutely loved going to RISD. I came to this auditorium almost every Saturday morning to listen to special lectures.

Providence has many great restaurants and while I was here, I discovered and fell in love with Cambodian food. Unfortunately one of my favorite restaurant has closed down so I searched for the next best thing. We found this place and they had my very favorite Naem Chao! Ohhhh, I’m savoring ever bite… It was so good and exactly as I remembered… It was so good that I forgot to take pictures of other dishes we had.

Another cloudy day but we enjoyed the morning walk.

This is a funny angle shot. Looks like Chloe’s about to kick Shane’s butt. 🙂

We came back to the Lobster shack for lunch before we set off to our next destination, Newport Rhode Island.

Enjoying a Clam Burger.

Lobster Stew

Lobster Roll

Chloe’s so sweet to Shane. When she’s not smacking him in the head/face (don’t worry, it only happened a few times) she mostly wants to take care of him. She’s a very loving older sister.

Famous Whoopi pie. I had to try one.

Raspberry pie

See what I mean?

Goodbye Maine! We really enjoyed you and will visit again soon!

Where we are staying is surrounded by so many strawberry fields.

Time for a yummy dinner!

My dinner: Sauvignon Blanc with raw Maine Oysters ♥

Lobster Primavera

Shrimp Scampi

Shane LOVES spaghetti! Actually he loves anything in forms of noodle.

Andrew picked out this outfit for Shane at the outlet this afternoon. I think it was Andrew’s first time picking clothes for kids and he really enjoyed it.  So much so that he announced that he will dress Shane from now on. Like a real boy!, he said.

Then, ice cream for dessert to end the night on a sweet note.

One for me too! This is a perfect size for me. Salted caramel.

Kids have a separate room upstairs which works out perfect for everyone.

We had planned on going sailing this morning, but woke up to a rainy day. So the next best thing? Going to the outlet!

On the way to Freeport, we explored through little streets and bridges and came across these beautiful views along the way.

Then it’s time for lunch

New England Clam Chowder

Lobster Melt

Fish Sandwich

I’m loving all these seafood we’ve been eating.

Came back to our cottage just in time for a nap.

Shane’s already out.
