Fun Friends at the Beach

A few weeks before we were to leave for the beach Arch & Justin realized we would be at the beach the same week. The Browns were not going to be there the full week, but several of the days they would be seaside would be the same week as our vacation. We made plans to meet up because what is more fun than hanging out with good friends at the beach?? Honestly, the only thing that would have made it even better were if the Clarks announced they would be there the same week...which almost happened since they got to the beach on Friday of the same week...but unfortunately the Clarks, Browns and McCarty's were not all together at once...we'll have to plan that trip for another year!

Anyway, the Browns came down to our beach house and we hit the beach hard...

I never get tired of picture of these two sweet girls together!

We played on the beach until about 3:30 and then we headed to the house for a little pool time to clean up and relax just a little bit more before they had to head back home...

Arch found massive quantities of water balloons in our garage before we left for the beach...apparently I went a little crazy buying them a few years ago...after this trip, we're officially out of water balloons...

I guess since their aim isn't the greatest the kids thought it more fun to squeeze each water balloon until it burst...

But like all good fun...it came to an end and the Browns headed home...but it only confirmed what I already believed...we should be taking beach trips with our friends on the regular!
