Ahhhhhh wake up and smell the Sunscreen......

Yes!!! I'm that strange girl at Target sniffing all of the sunscreens......You should join me :0).........Water Babies, Coppertone, Banana Boat, Hawaiian Tropic, .......

BLEH to the unscented ones!!......I want to smell coconuts and bananas...... I want to envision my husband and I on a beach in Hawaii, with our feet in the sand, sipping on delicious tropical drinks with little umbrellas in them......Hearing waves crashing along the shore and seagulls singing,..... Not a care in the world...


I want to remember a time when I lived in Nevada and my family went to Wet N Wild EVERY DAY......Riding along the lazy river in my cool neon bathing suit, going down EVERY slide, through EVERY tube, swimming in EVERY pool, .....Trying to avoid meeting up with my mom for lunch.........Who wants to stop having fun to eat??...............AWESOME!!!!!
As I got a little older, and wanted that "tan" body, I stopped using sunscreen and went to using TANNING OIL.......EEEEKKKKKKK.........

Now......I am whiter than white.....I burn EASILY......and FAST..........
I was that girl who would go on vacation with her family to the shore.......Lay out on the beach for the whole day on the FIRST DAY.....and THEN.....Spend the rest of my vacation inside nursing my BAD SUNBURN and ONLY coming out once the sun had gone down.......
I did it to myself EVERY SINGLE TIME......What was I thinking??? :0P

p.s. Throughout the fall and winter you can catch me dabbing a little bit of sunscreen on my arm from time to time...... It brings me back to that warm "Hawaii vision" that I dream of....he he he
These days I tend to live by the rule
Sorry that I was MIA for a little bit!! My husband was on vacation, my little brother was staying with us for the week and we were back and forth to every one of our relatives........It was nice, but tiring.......It was a MUCH NEEDED Hiatus!!!......But, I'm glad to be back!!! I've missed ALL of you and your awesome comments :0) <3<3<3<3
Don't forget to link up so we can all see your Totally RaNdOm thoughts!!!

I ABSOLUTELY 100% am obsessed with the smell of suntan lotions. hehe
I love sunscreen, too. I used to have this after sun lotion...Hawaiian Tropic made it..Cucumber melon..It smelled so yummy!! lol
Is it sad that I don't bathe the kids after coming in from playing outside? because I love smelling the sunscreen on them later in the day!!
Glad you are back, Alyson. I have missed reading your posts.
Now, Let's see what I can come up with as a random post!!!??!!
I am not obsessed because of the smell, obsessed bc I am white like Casper the ghost! Very funny, thanks for the giggle :)
I loved your post they always are soooo AWESOME. Missed you & glad your back. I do love sunscreen to it all smells so good. I always put it on the kids but somehow by the time it's my turn I forget or don't have time, LOL. Here in Nevada you really need it , LOL. Have a great Tuesday !!!!!!
I used to slather on that Hawaiian Tropic oil. I really don't wear much sunscreen now. I want to try that California Baby kind. I have the Burt's Bees right now but it's kinda pasty.
I love the Coppertone water babies! We used Banana Boat spray for kids today and I did not like it at all! It did not have any smell!
something about that smell does make you envision the beach and/or pool...in a few weeks I hope to have sand in my butt fo realz {Destin here we come}
i love hawaiian tropic
I agree - LOVE the smell of sunscreens and also tanning oil even if I would never EVER use it ;)
I love the smell of sunscreen! I'm soooooo white. My grandma got malignant melanoma and died at 42. I'm very anti-tanning. For me. You want to tan, feel free. I'll stay vampire white, thank you very much.
I love coconut sunscreen. Takes me back to being 15 again:)last summer we found that spray on stuff, the kids just sprayed it in each others faces:)
