BFF Double Date

I just had one of the best bff double dates ever! If you haven’t had one girls, it’s a must. We didn’t plan it that way, but somehow it ended up that way and I’m so glad because I had a fabulous time. Not to mention making new friends and meeting two of the sweetest and fun girls ever.

Last Friday afternoon Annie and I wanted to take a day off and spend some girly time together, we spoil ourselves like that. We planned on lunch and some beach walking by her house in Newport. So after visiting my sweet grandma I met up with Annie. She had invited her friend Kelly that was visiting from Michigan who then brought her best friend Erica along as well for lunch. Still with me? Okay good.

We had met before a year ago, but very briefly and so we quickly got reacquainted, chatted, laughed, bonded and then chatted up some more. After having yummy fish and shrimp tacos at Sharkeez (great hangout during the day, not so much at night) we decided to go walk on the beach. I had brought my camera so I told the girls to play along so I could get photos of them. I knew that they would be willing, but I was taken back at how much fun they were having with it, um, especially Kelly.;)This was definitely the highlight of the day and I’m glad we documented it because it really was an awesome date.

Erica had a splinter, no problem, the bff came to the rescue.

My favorite photo of them, so cute and Kelly looks up to something.

Love this photo of you Erica, it says it all. You’re so pretty and a sweetheart!

Sexy mama, you sure knows how to rock a dress.

Just love Erica’s reaction here.

Sorry Annie, I was laughing with you, not at you.

You’re all just gorgeous.

Erica and Kelly, thank you for an awesome afternoon and hope to get to know more of you in the future. Annie, we did it again! Another girly date with a bang, I love that we can be anywhere, do anything and just have a ball. Love you, hope this brightens up your week.

Hooray for beautiful friendships and girls who know how to have fun!
