Everyday Mom

Hello Summer!

Yeah it’s finally warm which makes me want to go to the lake, a pool party or better yet down ocean (lived in Baltimore for a few years & if I recall that’s how people referred to going to the beach). What I wouldn’t give to put on this outfit, head to Ocean City Maryland, stay in the pink Holiday Inn - ocean side of course- & take a walk on the beach; then head to the boardwalk for Thrasher fries with malt vinegar or gravy; then the Irish pub for crab legs; & of course a trip to the kidding casino where you actually walk out with some cool stuff for the money you’ve spent! Okay, sorry I got carried away -this is suppose to be about clothes.



This dress is actually a skirt. Very similar to the skirt Sara has shown several times but mine’s longer. The white sweater is great for staying cool but also takes the focus off all that bare skin.



Just add a flip flop Christmas ornament to your close2theheart necklace, throw on a pair of comfortable wedged sandals & you’re ready to head to the board walk where you can have fries & crab & play games & …..

Wish I’d thought to add a big hat. I love hats but people look at you funny (not sure why I care) when you wear them. But in the sun - they make sense. I burn incredibly easily so lots & lots of sun screenis a must which really ruins your makeup when you reapply (the one thing I do reapply). So why hasn’t someone come up with a spray that won’t make your face run? Last year I discovered Caribbean Breeze SPF 45 spray & SPF 70 Super Sunscreen lotion - they work! But I do not suggest waiting to buy them at a theme park - rather pricey! Hope Sara & Dan packed some for their trip down south.
