Be prepared for a totally different post then normal but it just was a completely necessary experience to share.. :)
As I sit here watching American Idol I cant escape the smell... the awful smell of a spray on tan. Wonderful readers.. I can't believe that I, Anna Foulkrod, got a SPRAY-ON-TAN! I mean can you even believe it? Ok, in my defense I had absolutely no idea that this is what our 'family night' entitled.
Now you might be thinkin- Why on earth did she get one? Well, you see I have a formal event on Saturday needing an evening gown. Instead of getting a new dress this year I just completely re-did an old dress. Part of these alterations were going strapless. Unfortunately, I tanned a lot last summer leaving white white whiteness... so.. after re-trying the dress on my dad recommended a tan. Ha, I thought he was completely kidding but apparently not.. because here I sit, stinky and smelly for another 6 hours..
But I must say this isn't a bad experience at all! In fact, I'd say that it was/is a wonderful memory. The fact that through the windows I could see (the rather orange themselves) salon workers cracking up- I can only imagine how often they get a whole family to walk through their doors! Their first words were "going to the Caribbean?". Goodness.. I hope this came across as humorous as it is to me as I sit here not only stinky and smelly but now laughing.
When I walked out of the tanning place not only did I take a DEEP breathe of fresh air but also I laughed sooo hard and then my family joined me, making it even better.

When you say this was a family activity, does that mean Nick got a spray-on tan too?!
