Well I just noticed that even though my friend and I both have similar eye colors, her eyes turn to a light brown color while in the sun while mine remain brown. What's causing this? Are my eyes turning blacker? Is it even possible to have full black eyes? I appreciate your answers!

Her eyes are lighter color than yours, that's all. In a dark-ish room, your pupils dilate leaving less of the iris visible, and making overall color appear dark.
I have never seen people with black iris. I have seen people with very dark brown iris. I could notice that their eyes are dark brown only if we were outside on a sunny day, but in a room their eyes appeared black.
Iris tends to get lighter with age not darker. It is unlikley that your eyes are turning darker.
My eyes change their color depending on how much my pupils are dilated. It's because my iris is multi-colored (hazel with blue outer rim), and depending on how much the pupil is dilated you can see more blue or more hazel, giving the overall impression anywhere from blue to gray to green.
