I am a BAD mother with a see-thorugh shirt

Today was our playgroups annual ice cream social/swim party. It was too hot to take Dayne so Crewe and I took off with a quest to spend as much time in the pool as possible. We both swam for two hours and had a great time. We came home to find a major siesta going on so WE WENT BACK. This time I didn't want to get in the pool so I let Crewe get into the pool and play/swim around on the steps. I was sitting on the side of the pool when I saw it....Crewe started to drown. It was awful!!! He was just stuck, standing in too deep water gulping air. My friend and I both tried to grab him but no luck. So we both jumped in....in ALL our clothes. Crewe was fine, a little scared but okay. I was shook up but okay. I was however wearing a white shirt. A semi-whore shirt, now was becoming a wet t-shirt contest. Oh, did I mention the capris and shoes that I also had on. I am a bad mom who let her kid in the pool by himself and the world (and all my non-lds friends) could see my personals.

My Crewe Dawg is good. Fine. Wonderful. He is getting ready for bed and after swim lessons this morning and then the swim party for 4 hours, he should sleep hard. I however, am having a harder time. I am bad mom with a see-through shirt.

The Semi-whore/See-through shirt. You can't see the deep V but it is there.

NERD alert

I am a book nerd. HUGE nerd. However, I have never read a Harry Potter book. I have seen the movies. I even have a signed (by the illustrator) copy of the first book. And yet, I have never cracked open the wizard books.

Why?

Who knows?

I don't enjoy books that have a lot of hype and then when I read them my expectations are SO HIGH that the book falls FLAT!!! This has happened with Divinci Code, The Road (sucked really bad) and a few others.

So, tomorrow book nerds all over will be uniting to get the next The magical HP (is that correct slang?) book.

However, I will not be one of them.

tan today, gone tommrow

I'm not sure if you can tell....but I am CRAZY tan.

Have I spent hours and hours in the sun? No.

Have I spent hours ruining my skin worshipping the sun? No.

Here here the story of the tan of Ashley. It started on a Friday whilst I was wearing DARK chocolate brown shorts. The whiteness of my legs next to this color was AWFUL. Rich and I were at a light in Billings and I saw the way to happiness. "Spray tan of America". Now, I have used tan-less lotion before (I'm quite good at applying and I know the good brands) and I have even done the spray booth before *much like Ross on Friends*. So I walked in and said sign me me up for a gold look. She said okay this way. I went into an empty room...

Wait, where is the booth? Where does the spray shoot from? Where do I stand for 10 SECONDS turn and wait for another 10 SECONDS????

Then the girls follows me into the room. "okay, get undressed. I will be back to start spraying you."

What the $@#%^?!!!!!!

So a woman in Montana has seen me in all my glory. Jokes on her....Who wants to see a fat WHITE girl transform to tan goddess???

Me, that's who.

Thanks

Dear Grandma,

I miss you. I keep telling my mom and dad that I want to move our house back to "tana". When will you come to see me again?

I also want to say Thank you. Thanks for teaching me new words like "buns" and "naked like a jay bird." All day I discussed my rear side and refused to wear clothes after lunch. I also LOVE that you taught me about poop. It really is great to know about dog poop, people poop (how to pull Tiger's finger) and that my toys poop. Thanks for also teaching me that dinosaurs died because they smoked cigarettes. I will never smoke cigarettes but what do you think about weed?

I miss that I had NO BEDTIME in "tana" and I cried tonight when mommy brushed my teeth. You are WAY better at brushing my teeth.

I am sure that Dayne misses you too.
Lots of love and licks,
Crewe Palmer

Princess has returned

We are back in CA. I am sad.
Baby Dayne's crown is WONDERFUL. My mom and I are going to make them and sell them.
