Let’s GO Swimming!
Actually, I dont go swimming that much. And for a DIY project this summer, I might have to demo a built in pool, if we get the house we are hoping. Fingers crossed!

Let’s go swimming! (in the red kiddie pool in my yard with my two preschoolers)
Kate says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I grew up swimming a ton – on a swim team as a kid and at the lake with family. Now, I swim in the shallow pools with our little ones. Some day, we’ll get back out there to the deep water & lap lanes. ;)

RLB says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I like swimming in the ocean. The salt water helps keep me afloat and it’s just so freeing to swim in such a big body of water.

Amanda S says

Jenn Plexman says
“LET’S GO SWIMMING!”
There is nothing like being hot and squinting at the sun just before you jump in a pool. The water is cold as it hits you but the most refreashing thing you could ever imagine. I think there is no better feeling then the first few seconds when you are fully submerged, weightless and then pump your arms and legs to get moving. my summer love.
Eryka K says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I used to be a swimmer in high school. And I just now realized that I’m getting too old to use high school sport references like I’m some kind of athlete. I think they call that “has been”.
Ariele says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Love swimming on a hot summer day, feeling weightless, refreshed. Can’t wait until July!
Michael says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I wish it were summer.
Krissy says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I love to swim. However, in Seattle, most of my swimming is done in indoor pools, where I get fairly overwhelmed by how LOUD it can get! (cement walls, lots of water, yeah..) So I don’t get to go as often as I’d like.
Colleen says
LET’S GO SWIMMING! Love it, I saw laps about 3 times a week.
Ursa says
Let’s go swimming! Swimming is the best! Every year I cannot wait to go to the sea side and swim my days away. That’s like the best thing to do in the summer (besides laying in a shade with a good book).
veronica o says

Jessica says
LETS GO SWIMMING I love nothing more than watching my kids at swimming lessons and taking then swimming in the lake.
Ashley says
LET’S GO SWIMMING!
I used to love swimming, haven’t done any serious swimming for a while tho… I was a lifeguard in high school and worked at a kids camp for three summers. I think all the training for life guarding turned me off of swimming for a while :( But few things in life are better than jumping into a cold lake on a hot summer day!
