365:Day 140 ~ Five Days and Counting ... Pure and Simple

Welp … it’s officially here. We are headed to the lake for a long weekend with all of our peeps – the Bryces, the Deckers, the Mitchells, the Olsons, the Scheers, and the Winds – yes, in just FIVE DAYS all 23 of us are headed to the lake for some summer fun!

A few weeks ago the kids were watching something on the Disney Channel when a Coppertone commercial came on. I was in the kitchen and overheard them say “tear-free sunscreen” and just about started to jump for joy! I ran into the family room to rewind the commercial {gotta love DVR} to listen to the whole thing. And they did indeed FINALLY come up with a tear-free sunscreen!!! Finally, finally, FINALLY!!!!!

For those of you who have kiddos, you probably know that inevitably you put the sunscreen on your kid’s face, something makes them start to cry, they rub their eyes and thus completely SET THEM ON FIRE! Sunscreen burns their eyes, but it’s just so hard for them not to touch their faces! I’ve been waiting 6 years for a tear-free sunscreen. So thank you Coppertone for creating Water Babies Pure and Simple! I happily grabbed a bottle at Target this afternoon! I only wish that I would have been the one to invent it!

Lake Trip here we come … totally TEAR-FREE!!! :)

Huh. I just bought that last weekend and didn't even realize it was TEAR FREE! Thanks for the heads up! I will now forgive it for being so darn hard to rub in! :)
