Pool Party at Last!

I was supposed to go swimming at my friend Faith's on July 4th, but it rained. I was supposed to go swimming at my sister's the following weekend, but it rained. I told our student worker (who had organized a pool party at her house for today) that I would understand if she wanted to cancel my invitation. I might be a weather jinx.

But she said I could still come to the party. Isn't she nice?

Actually I thought it was very nice of her to organize this little party for the girls of the office. Not all the office girls could go, but those of us who did had a very fun time! Rachel's dad grilled for us, and we all pitched in side dishes and desserts.

From the left: Rachel (the hostess with the mostest), Angel, Rachel (holding Anna), me, Robyn.

Sometimes lunch just isn't enough.

Anna, trying out the water with Miss Robyn. She lasted a little while and then she said "Forget it. I want to sleep." Well, she didn't really say it outright like that, but it's what she meant.


Robyn and me...floating on the fun noodle thingies. They were a great invention.

My annual pool photo. It always looks the same. I'm always pasty white, I'm always wearing the same suit...but hey, at least I'm consistent.

Pasty white is the new tan...I'm pretty sure of it!

Hey, I applaud you just for putting on a bathing suit at least once a year. We just gave up on the pool this year. I think next year it's going to go bye-bye because it's too much work and no one uses it.

You look great, by the way!

LOL - thanks Christina! You like the drowned rat look, do you? :) Hee hee hee. I would put it on more than once a year if IT WOULD QUIT RAINING ON MY SCHEDULED SWIM DAYS!!

Don't blame you for getting rid of yours though - my sister's gives her a lot of headaches. They definitely are a lot of work!

Oh ps - I'm now a lovely shade of pink. Kind of a hot pink.

Bekah,

Didn't you know hot pink is nw the new tan? Pasty white is so yesterday...

Oops. "nw" = now

Hey! My word verification is "loser"! What's up with that???

Bekah said...

Well I am the new tan then! Last night I had that hot/cold/chilling/burning thing going on. LOVELY. But it's all better this morning and it's an actual tan. :) All except my shoulders.

And shame on word verification. You are so NOT a loser!
