Sun Soaked


 After working in the yard yesterday morning we spent the rest of our day in the water.

It was one of those nice relaxing days where not enough sunblock was applied, too many chips eaten, and lots of catching up with friends we don't see enough.


And of course the mermaid tail was brought and I think before the day was through most everyone had to try it on and take a swim.  A good friends daughter was cracking me up when her mom was taking a picture with her wearing it she said "can you just order it now, on your phone".  Just a tad excited/impatient to have her own I guess :)


Ones of these days I'll get better about taking pictures of the adults.  I think we were just too busy eating.  And talking.  And not applying sunblock.

  2. You better not forget that sunblock all summer! Actually, you're from California, your skin is probably made for that. I get burned once and my risk of melanoma quadruples. :o/ I've gotten used to being eggshell white all year long.

  9. Too many chips, not enough sunblock? Sounds like summer perfection. No water access here, but that doesn't mean I can't invest in some snackies and hang out on the patio ;)
