Fun Swimming, Painful days after...


On Wednesday Katie and Reese Deamer(isn't she cute!), and I decided that it was warm enough for us to go swimming. We were all excited to get out there cause we just had gotten our cute swimming suits from modbe! So even though it was hot it was plenty warm to get in the water and play. Plus little Reese hasn't been in the pool much and was having her first swimming lesson on Sat. so Katie thought it might be good for her to try it out! Well Reese was not as excited as we thought she would be. She liked sitting on the towel not in the water much better. But we still got to play in the pool lots and we had lots of fun! Well when we left my shoulders were a little pink but I thought i had made it pretty good without burning.. Boy was i wrong. Later that day my shoulders got red and my legs were on fire! Later that night they got worse and worse and seriously my legs were almost purple! Ouch! I thought I had been so careful! I used sunscreen! Well anyway I went to work the next day barely able to walk. Then my wonderful co-workers(Angela) took me to get some burn free. That stuff is amazing! It is like aloe vera gel but it lasts much longer.. It kinda numbed my legs a little! I highly recommend it!

I hate sunburns!! But its good to know about the "burn free" cream. I'm sure it will come in handy this summer!

Yay! I love the summer! I'm sorry you got burned though! Since I've never burned, I sometimes forget that Boston can! I need to remember the sunscreen for him! I miss you girly! It was fun seeing you at the shower though! I hope you had fun at the game!
