LET’S GO SWIMMING! Swimming sure is fun, but more importantly, it’s usually the reason for bringing together family and friends, which equals loads of good times and good laughs. Can’t wait to open up our pool for the summer! :)
Linda says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love to swim and try to lap swim daily when the weather permits.
Kate says
LET”S GO SWIMMING…There is nothing I love more than to sit beside water (pool, beach, lake…I’m not picky) and read a good book. But I always go swimming, I need to cool off and I still love to practice my underwater handstands.
lindsay says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to go with my 2 year old daughter Claire and pretend scream as she splashes me in the face.
Shannon says
Let’s go swimming!
Swimmer all my life – swim team, lifeguard, etc, etc. Love her art!
Holly Rook says
Let’s go swimming. Yep, I’m a lap swimmer. If I lived near the ocean, I’d be there every day almost.
Hedi says
Let’s go swimming! There is nothing I love more than playing in the pool with my two-year-old.
Rosie says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love hangining out in the water, but my strokes really need some work – never learned how to do a lot of them properly, so they’re more like modified doggy paddle.
Penny says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!! I can’t wait for beach and pool weather! nothing beats a weekend spent outside around the pool!
Courtney Rutledge says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love the pool and the beach and oh how her painting would look so cool is our new coastal inspired house!!
Serina says
Let’s go swimming!
Swimming in the summer months is a huge MUST living in Texas. I love me some hot summer days and a nice cold pool to jump into :)
Amy Steinberg says
LETS GO SWIMMING! I love the water and love swimming – laps or just lounging around in a pool in the sun.
Meena says
Let’s go SWIMMING!
Love swimming, hate the smell of chlorine!
Brendan says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love to swim laps in the pool, and get into dunking wars with people… Drives my wife a little crazy… She just wants to float.
Karissa says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I much prefer to lie by the pool than swim, but I’ll take a dip now and then.
Justin Rutledge says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
We cannot wait until our neighborhood pool opens up to start going because our family loves the water.
Emily says
Let’s go Swimming!! My favorite type of swimming is when I am swimming up to a bar in the pool in Mexico to get my strawberry daiquiri!!
Lauren says
LETS GO SWIMMING!!!
I love swimming it’s great exercise and wonderful for your joints
Jenny says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Our family has spent more hours in the water than on land…including college swimming. Fast forward a few years, my husband created and manages an inner city swim school to support kids in learning to swim – you can’t die if you don’t know how to play basketball, swimming is a life skill. Teach your little ones and have fun doing it!
Carrie says
Let’s Go Swimming!
Water & I are definitely friends. I’ve always been a fan whether its lounging on the beach with ocean waves crashing or enjoying water sports like wakeboarding!
Leigh Anne says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
After a huge belly flop off the diving board when I was little, I stick to lounging in the pool. Typically on a flotation device while working on my tan. No more acrobatics for me:)
Cathy says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I am not a swimmer…I just sit by the pool and get my tan on. :)
Janet says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Our entire family lives in the pool and at the beach!
Tara D says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I have a very serious relationship with chlorine. I was a competative swimmer in high school, as well as a lifeguard/swimming instructor for 8 YEARS!
Stephanie says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I enjoy splashing around, and I could swim to survive, but I wouldn’t call myself a swimmer.
Kate O says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love to swim in the pool but hang out by the beach. Body surfing is too good to give up!
Heather says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
We had a pool in our backyard growing up and we LOVED it! I was also on swim team in high school, then a life guard in college, and finally a triathlete as an adult. I really do love swimming. =)
Caleb says
LETS GO SWIMMING!!!
Not much of a swimmer, but I live in Texas so pool time is always a must
Amy Wolff says
Let’s go swimming!
I just signed up my three-year-old daughter for swim lessons… they don’t start till July, but she is insisting we start couting down till the day.
Melissa G says
Lets go swimming!
Deanne says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!! I LOVE the water. I find it so relaxing. I don’t like getting my hair wet, though! I am the one who walks around on tippy toes in the pool with a book in her hand when on vacation!!
kelly ann says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!!!
I love to swim, but not nearly as much as my 2 year old!!!
Steve says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I was a diver through college, I chose doing that over being on the swim team when I was young because swimming laps looked so boring compared to jumping off the high dive!
Katie D. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I’m not a big swimmer, but I love lounging by the lake when the weather is warm.
Anne says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I have been a swimmer since I was a year old.
sherri says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love swimming. There is nothing like it.
Kelli G says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Being in the water is relaxing, but only if I can see the bottom! I’m not a strong swimmer and have always been a little afraid of deep water because of it. So I’m starting my boys in swim lessons young so they don’t end up like their mama. Plus, living on the ocean in FL, knowing how to swim is a safety must!
Emily P says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
Yes, I’m a swimmer for life. It’s the best sport!
Jen D 511 says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Yes, I love to swim and just be in the water. Really love the ocean, but pools are good, too.
Alyssa says
Let’s go swimming!
I am not a great swimmer, which is why my son is in swimming lessons — I don’t want him to fear the water.
Marcelle says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
My parents put an in-ground pool in their backyars when I was in 6th grade… it’s still used just as much as that first summer!
I’m also a huge beach bum, and will go swimming no matter how cold it gets! (And it gets pretty cold here in Canada.)
Lauren says
Let’s Go Swimming! Salt water all the way. That feeling of dried-on salt on your skin and in your hair is the best!
judy m says
LET’S GO SWIMMING…. I’d like to sit by a pool in the shade with a good book & watch others swim.
Elle says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I’d rather just walk along the beach and let the surf rush over my bare feet. Ever since I nearly drowned while swimming in a quarry the day before my college graduation, I steer clear of swimming pools.
Tara F says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Not really into swimming, I am more of an indoor girl.
EJ @ Not A House, But A Home says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love being in the water, but I’m a horrible swimmer!
Lynnette Ross says
Let’s go swimming! I would love to add this to my home. The colors would fit right in.
Liz says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
Can’t wait to swim with my grandchildren this summer. Watching them learn to swim has been a grandparent bonus!
Amanda K says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
I love the water, but I wish I really knew how to swim. I mostly flail around and hope for the best.
Sarah says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love swimming, always have, always will!
