LET’S GO SWIMMING!!!
spring has finally arrived over here, and I cannot wait for it to turn into summer. we’re a family of water-lovers, with my husband and myself being rowers and the little one an aspiring rower as soon as he can manage to hold the sculls properly. in the meantime, it’s swimming for him – so I’m sure he’d love Samantha’s artwork!

Humble Momma Pie says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Because I had such a weird experience while swimming recently: I came out of the locker room and someone had stolen- er, taken my shampoo bottle. Not just any bottle, but the travel bottle of shampoo I’d been using since college. It’s like a talisman, this travel-size shampoo bottle, representing years of dry hair, the scent of chlorine embedded in my skin and persistence to get in during the cold months — all in the name of wellness (nothing beats lap swimming). So, here’s hoping something good comes out of that change ^_^
Lauren says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I am a huge fan of the water, it is very calming to me. Can’t wait for summer, so I can get back to my casual days of dipping in the pool.
Julia says
Let’s go swimming!
I love the water…swimming, wading, being on a boat, any of it. By the way, I totally see the fishes in your painting….Clara is not crazy!
Kahley @ Ambiance says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love spending long lazy days on the beach on Lake Huron (one of Canada’s Great Lakes!) at my parents cottage (http://ambiancedecorlive.blogspot.ca/2012/01/aqua-honeymoon-cottage-reveal.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+blogspot/iAAFT+%28AMBIANCE%29)! No laps here! Just enjoying the kiddies playing in the shallow water, and soaking up the rays!
