Adventure: Swimming

Ahh it's finally Friday and I'm so ready for the weekend. It's gonna be full of swimming. We have not once gone swimming this summer and Maria has never been in a pool, well because both her folks are a couple of  fatties and well we just don't desire to share with the world our rolls, our eyes only you see. Well we finally decided we can't just hide away and keep Maria from the pool because of our issues, so the hunt was on for some swim wear. Well Riley was easy, he just needs swim trunks and he's good to go, I on the other hand needed everything to be hidden, tucked in tight and not so rolly. Well off I went to Wal-Mart, surely they would have a bathing suit to cater to the larger woman, well lo and behold they had board shorts for plus size gals like me (note to self, try them on before leaving the store, not the night before you're planning a swimming trip, they're a little snug and will do but I'm off first thing in the morn for a size bigger, just to smooth things out a bit, BTW can a parentheses statement be a paragraph long?). Anyway, the shorts are super cute but there were no tops to be found so I gathered up the baby, grabbed my madre and padre and we made a trip to fashion bug, a big girl's best friend, and there it was the perfect top, it matches the board shorts and it actually looks cute on me. Now I'm all set to strut my largeness to the pool tomorrow with my beautiful baby in tow and my cute hubby. We'll look like the All American family, happy and fat!! LOL :)
