A Weekend Getaway!

Back in March I was already thinking about a little getaway for Memorial Day. When Tyler suggested the beach, I was immediately researching the friendly Texas beach town, Port Aransas. We arrived with some friends Friday evening, excited to finally be at the beach!

Saturday we spent the entire day at the beach, soaking in the rays and enjoying good books. Tyler and Justin spent most of the day playing horseshoes. We had a picnic lunch on the beach and then headed back to our little condo in the afternoon.

That night the four of us went to a precious restaurant right on the port. We sat outside and watched the sunset over a delicious seafood dinner. Afterwards we went to the Port Aransas Brewing Company and tried a few of the local beers. Of course, we left with a souvenir glass to add to the collection. We then went out to a local bar and danced the night away to some of our favorite old school rap songs :) The people watching was totally entertaining and we had a blast!

Sunday we took our burned bodies out to the beach for just a few hours and then we went out for some afternoon drinks! We went to a spot right on the port and watched boats and dolphins as we enjoyed pina coladas. We hit up a few of the local shops and picked up some shrimp to grill for dinner.
Justin and Tyler grilled out quite a feast for all of us, including steaks, shrimp, grilled onions and green beans. We spent the evening relaxing, eating yummy icecream and playing catch phrase. It was the perfect way to end the trip! It was such a treat to be able to relax, and enjoy the beach with great friends!
