LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love swimming around in the pool and teaching my lil sister and nieces how to do somersaults! I was on the swim team in grade school and can’t wait to cheer on the little ones when they get older.

LET’S GO SWIMMING! I grew up in Florida, so my summers were always spent in my backyard pool… I was also on swim team, and I was a lifeguard, so I pretty much grew up with a tan and green hair from the chlorine!

Heather says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I live in australia, walking distance to the beach and we love to go! My oldest son is 7 and has autism, and just this past summer have we been able to take him to the beach without a meltdown and he loves it. He also love a pool so we often go to a friends place and have a swim. Our 5 year old is a very good swimmer and our 1 year old just loves the water. Its coming into winter now, but the water is still warm so we have been going that last few weekends, but not for much longer!

I’ve always loved being near or on the water (lakes/ocean), but I get a little freaked out thinking of creepy water creatures sneaking up and nibbling my toes while I’m swimming.

LET’S GO SWIMMING! I haven’t been swimming since I started coloring my hair red. With the way the color runs out when I shower it makes me nervous to have all of that dye rinse out in the pool.
Allison says

LET’S GO SWIMMING! I am not a big swimmer myself, but my husband life guarded his way through college. I am more of a “lay by the pool and get in to cool off” girl myself.

I love the beach and have always lived near it, although I like to stay close to shore (like up to my waist)I’m scared of sharks! And sea snakes! And seaweed a little too.
