LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I do love a swimming pool – it’s a must when you want to lay out and tan in the Texas heat!
Rebecca B. says
Let’s go swimming! I like playing around in the water, for sure. I grew up on Lake Erie, so I guess it’s in my blood.
Tracey says
LET’S GO SWIMMING. I love snorkeling, though I am not a very good swimmer
Caitlin @ Desert Domicile says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Water and I are not friends and I have no idea how to swim haha Doesn’t mean I don’t like going down to the pool to lounge around and dip my toes in the water from time to time though :)
Katie says
Let’s go swimming! I love the water but I’m more an awkward pelican than a graceful fish. Maybe I should stick to the kiddie pool!
Deena says
Let’s go swimming!
I love swimming and desperately want my husband to install a pool at our house! :)
Lorelei says
Let’s go swimming! I love the water, but my fiance is a midwesterner. He’s never been to the ocean, and can barely doggy-paddle!
Julie K says
Let’s Go Swimming!!
My husband is the Aquatics Director of a local high school – he was a 16-time All American Swimmer – I’d LOVE to get one of these for him some day… He’s definitely the swimmer in the family – while I like to float!!
Ashley@AttemptsAtDomestication says
Let’s go swimming! I love the water and I love to go to the pool! I can’t wait for pools to open this summer!
Anna Lisa says
Let’s go swimming!
I used to swim a lot – once I did a four-mile swim in lake michigan but after that I was kind of burned out on the whole thing and have not gone swimming for exercise ever again. Still love sitting in the pool though. :-)
Eileen beamis says
LETS GO SWIMMING!
We live in Hawaii so we go once a week :)
Kelsey V says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I can’t wait for the summer to roll around so we can do just that! :)
Margaret says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love swimming, but enjoy laying by the pool/ocean even more. Just a quick dunk is all it takes to make me a happy girl!
Hillary says
Let’s go swimming! I do love swimming but I like lakes and rivers rather than pools.
Erin says
LET’S GO SWIMMING . . . swimming is about the only form of outdoor exercise that I don’t participate in or enjoy. HOWEVER, my bf and I were just in Maui in October, and I dream of the snorkeling we did. So amazing. That is the kind of swimming I like.
DXT says
Let’s Go Swimming!
I just learned to swim as an adult.. and love it. Wasn’t too embarrassing learning beside 3 or 4 year olds in the next lane – LOL! I’m so glad I did it and utterly enjoy the water now.
Kathryn says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I just like to sit by the pool and relax.
Brittany says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I am a terrible swimmer. Doggy paddling is pretty much the extent of my skills : )
Beth says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! I love, love, love the water and everything having to do with it. I am very happy whether I am swimming in a pool or laying by it taking in the sun, or at the beach!
Amanda says
LET’S GO SWIMMING
LOVE the water! Looking forward to our new addition getting his first beach experience this summer!
Sarah says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
Looking forward to swim in the lakes in summer.
Richelle says
Let’s go swimming! I was a lifeguard in high school at the lake – it was great to get paid to be out by the water in my swimsuit all day!
Brita says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I have been staring at her Etsy page since you first posted the print you bought, willing something to magically get in my price range.
I’m a swimmer for sure, I swam competitively from age seven all the way through high school :)
ali says
Let’s go swimming!
Love to swim in the ocean, the pool or the bath tub!
Allison says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!
I am just ITCHING for warmer weather, so I can hit the beach. I live in Nova Scotia, on the Northumberland Strait, which apparently boasts the warmest ocean temperatures in Canada, and also the warmest temps on the Atlantic coast north of Virginia!
Kristin says
Let’s go swimming! I love swimming in the ocean on a hot summer day!
Katherine says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!! I lifeguarded for quite a while back in the day, so I’m good sitting and watching. :)
Kait says
LETS GO SWIMMING! Especially in the ocean! It doesn’t get much better than jumping waves on a hot summer day :)
Kate Keegan says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! My boyfriend was on the Ocean City Beach Patrol saving lives for 6 seasons straight. I always thought of the water as a foe but if he’s the one guarding I guess the water isn’t so bad!
Melissa says
Let’s go swimming! I love to swim, though I’m not a fan of being under water. A dip sounds lovely right now, but at 37 weeks pregnant, I don’t have a suit that fits! ha!
Diana @ Boy + Girl says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
The water and I are friends. But I’m more of a lounger than a swimmer.
Ashleigh says
LET’s GO SWIMMING. I LOVE the pool, and I plan on spending a lot of time there this summer since I will be 8-9 months pregnant. Probably will scare some of the little ones, but gotta stay cool.
emily says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I looove the water, whether it’s a relaxing dip in the pool or some more workout-oriented laps, I love summer for that very reason! (And bonus: my dog looooves the water too.)
Rebecca says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!” Ocean, lake, pond, pool, I love it all. I took up SCUBA diving in college to conquer my irrational fear of sharks.
Elisabeth says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I tend to swim in pools but I only wade in oceans. I never liked getting that salty water in my eyes. I also worry about getting stung by jellyfish! I’ll keep watch over everyone’s towels thank you very much :)
Robin E. says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I have been swimming since before I could walk! I come from a family of swimming coaches and teachers and every year my favorite thing about the summer is the opportunity to swim outdoors. One of the better things about living in crazy-hot Texas is that the pools are open year round …
Meghan Lindsay says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I used to swim competitively. I still do my time in the pool swimming laps, but I just love all water in general!
Jane says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!!!
I love splashing around with my kiddos in the summertime!
Kristy says
LET’S GO SWIMMING – I live in Florida so swimming at the beach is a year round activity.
Shreya says
LET’S GO SWIMMING
I’m a complete water baby. I love love love to siwm, snorkel and scuba dive! Even just sitting by the water gives me a sense of calm.
p.s. What a great giveaway :)
Kathy says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! My version of swimming is the occasional poolside dip with a cocktail in my hand. Ooooh… I can’t wait for summer!!
theresa jenkins says
Lets Go Swimming….I like to lounge on a float in the water….
