HOWDY

WELL HOWDY Y'ALL! So, I was looking through friends' blogs and had a brilliant idea to start an actual blog and maybe team up with my lovely Lauren. So we're going to introduce ourselves.
Lauren and I are studying in Idaho and OF COURSE we're roommates! We've always told everyone that we've known each other a pregnancy, but we were told today that it has been a little over a year.. so that means the baby of our relationship is 3 months old! Its cute by the way!




We decided that we should probably use this post to educate those about the sun. Did you know that elevation totally plays a role in how bad you get sunburned? Well yeah, apparently it does. We're from 300 ft above sea level. 300! Do you know the elevation of Rexburg? 4865 ft. Yeah, just a tad bit higher than home. So because we are essentially closer to the sun that means our skin is more vulnerable. Well I spent a lovely 6 hours out in the sun and Lauren was out for about 2 1/2. We are baked, charred, cooked, singed, yep, we are burnt like toast! Redder than lobsters. So for those looking to go out into the sun anytime soon, put on sunscreen, please, at least a little! If however you decide to not listen to my council then never fear, Tylenol PM is your savior. If you happen to be a poor college student though, Ibuprofen and Benadryl work great too! Just make sure you give yourself enough time to wake up, Lauren and I missed church. Oops.
