The week before heading back to work, a bunch of my Phi Mu sisters and I took a little mini vaca down to Ocean City, MD. This has been a tradition for us for the last 3 years and I hope it keeps going for years to come!
A few of us woke up early and traveled to the beach on Thursday morning. We spent our first day and night, enjoying the beautiful scenery,
taking silly pictures, eating fattening food and finally,
watching the Ravens first pre-season game at The Purple Moose! What an appropriate bar for a purple-loving Ravens fan like myself!
On Friday, some more of our group of ladies showed up and we lounged around on the beach, soaking up the sun for most of the day. Even though the waves were insanely huge and the lifeguard had to run in to make saves at least 5 times, it was so relaxing to get to spend some serious ocean side time with some of my best friends.
On Friday, we also went to Seacrets for some dinner and sunset drinks, in the bayside water tables of course.
That night, we decided to take a little stroll on the boardwalk. It was pretty chilly for August, but we managed to warm ourselves up with yummy boardwalk fries at Thrashers and funnel cakes!
A few of us also made it our mission to find ice cream that night, and ended up at McDonald's for some delicious $1 Menu sundaes!Saturday was another day spent perfecting our tans on the beach. (Did I ever mention I'm just a little bit tanorexic?) We also took our annual scopes photos on the beach that day! Here are a few of my favorite shots:
Since Saturday was our last night in Ocean City, we decided to make it the night for our annual crabfeast dinner. We jammed into a cute little table on the back deck at Hooper's and settled in for some delicious Maryland blue crabs. Crabs are one of my most favorite parts of summer, so I cannot tell you how excited I was for dinner that night!
Saturday night, after a couple of bumps in the road, we ended up having an awesome last night out at a new bar called Dead Freddies! It had an indoor dance floor as well as a relaxing outside deck to sit and drink on.
Two of my friends, Lauren and Amanda recently got engaged! So, we made them some little sashes to celebrate while we were out on the town.
Sunday, we soaked up what little bit of sun was out and headed home to start the (ugh) work week. All in all, it was a pretty great time! I can't wait to start planning next year's trip!
