Brooke says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I first started swim lessons when I was six months old and have loved the water ever since. Of course, I admit that my version of “swimming” these days often consists of a floatie and an adult beverage… But it’s still a great time!

LET’S GO SWIMMING! When I was younger, I used to swim laps every week. Now, years later, I wish I still had that endurance!
Emma says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love to swim in all sorts of water but am terrified of sharks, unseen creatures, dark secrets, algae, piranhas, cod, those spiky poisonous animals that look like troubled balls, anything that is slimy, and surfboards. Thus, I tend to splash in the shallow water within three feet of the shore!
Shannon says

dana says
LET’S GO SWIMMING, please!
Growing up with a swimming pool in the backyard and another at Grandpa & Grandma’s house, I spent most summer days in a swimsuit. Now that I have to go to a job during the week, it really limits the time I can spend floating in the pool.
Shannon says
LET’S GO SWIMMING….
In fact I went to the beach today with my toddler son! He loved it, we live a few blocks away and go almost every day ;) Such a great giveaway, her work is gorgeous!

Janelle D says
LETS GO SWIMMING! When my parents first put me in swimming lessons, long ago, I sat on the side of the pool with my feet in the water for weeks. With some gentle encouragement though, I slowly became more comfortable & finished all of the swimming levels. And now, I love it!

I am a fan of lounging around and soaking up the sun, but there is nothing better than when it is brutally hot outside than jumping in my pool to cool off!
