Sunscreen Tastes Nasty (another post on *music*)

Date: Monday, July 17, 2006 | Category: Life, Love, and Happiness

Believe me, it does. It also smells weird. And feels weird. And SPF8 doesn't work on very fair-skinned people. I learned that yesterday. And it especially doesn't work if you accidentally spread it too thin. Or miss places.

Anyway.

Yesterday we decided to practice music outside again, since Dad had the day off and Ben doesn't work Sundays. So, we got up at seven...most of us, at least, and had a yummy breakfast of pork sausage, eggs, and toast, then after the kitchen was cleaned the boys started setting up outside. Dad drove the pickup into the back yard again and the boys loaded the stuff in it, took it up to the corrals, and set it all up again. We were out there from about ten or eleven, with one break at two. It was fun, but very hot! Ben and I are the fairest (in the sense that we have the lightest skin, not that we're the prettiest), so we both put on sunscreen...SPF8. The kind Mom got for Dad that's supposed to give you a tan. I don't know what it did for Ben, but even through it, I got burns in some places, like the top of my right arm and spots on my left, and my neck. But oh well! It was fun! We drank lots of Crystal Light lemonade, which was really nice.

Eric is our photographer, and he ended up taking video clips with the camera. The quality is horrible, though. After all, it's just a CAMERA, and the louder songs didn't come across very well.

Like I said, it was hot and the sun was bright, so Dad let the girls and I pick out a hat from his hat rack. It worked very well! I could see without squinting! I looked awful dorky, but oh well. :)
