bikini

Saturday afternoon at the pool

We belong to a local community pool, and every year when it opens around Memorial Day we start gearing up for long weekend afternoons in the sun (here is where I remind you to wear sunscreen, don’t make me have to show you my scars). We always have to get the kids new suits because they grow out of them every year, but I’ve been sticking with two solid-color one pieces I bought over four years ago. Don’t say it, I already know: how very Mormon of me.

Cami has been bugging me to buy something more stylish, preferably something that shows more skin. (Remember? We’re dating.) So this year I’m going to do it. This means I’ll be spending way more on sunscreen than usual, but it’s time I started to live a little, you know, fourteen years after realizing it isn’t a sin to wear a bikini.

Just please, no one tell my mom.
