My Boys Love Swimming! |
| 7/6/2010 7:45:52 AM |
In Arizona, most of the year is swimming weather. My three boys can hardly wait until the hot summer months when they can spend the days swimming. When most of us are melting from the heat, they are ready to play all day in the sun. Luckily, I at least do not have to leave my house to buy swimming items for them. I simply go online to my favorite summer goods store and shop... Read More |

Found Swimming Gear Online |
| 6/5/2010 6:50:30 AM |
|  This morning I’ve been busy packing the swimming gear and the grill into the car and getting ready for a day at the lake. The kids will probably be up any moment now, and the house will spring to life within seconds. Even though I wanted to sleep late, I decided to get up before everyone else and start packing the car. I knew if I didn’t pack the swimming gear ahead of time,... Read More

Time to Go Swimming |
| 6/5/2010 6:47:29 AM |
 It did not take longer of than a blink of an eye to say, “Yes” to my friend after he called on Friday to see if I wanted to come over to his place for a pool party today. Swimming seems like exactly the kind of activity for what is supposed to be a 90-degree day in Los Angeles. The start of June has been awesome for swimming. I don’t know if it was just Memorial Day... Read More |

Will You Go Swimming with Me? |
| 5/26/2010 6:25:52 AM |
One of my friends who is trying to lose weight called me yesterday to ask if I’d be willing to go swimming with her a few times a week. I haven’t been swimming in years, but I love my friend and I’m more than happy to be there to support her in her weight loss efforts. Besides, there was a point when I used to love to get in the water and I would swim around like a fish. I... Read More |

Safe Swimming With My Family |
| 3/29/2010 4:06:56 PM |
Swimming has been a part of my kids life since they were born. I made it a point to get swimming lessons for all my children before we went near a pool. I wanted to make sure my children were safe swimming wherever they ended up going. We live in Arizona so almost everyone has a swimming pool. Most of my kids friends have one so I wanted to make sure they all knew how to... Read More |

I Will be Using Water Aerobics Exercises to Get into Movie Star Shape This Summer! |
| 3/16/2010 1:06:28 AM |
 I have a really nice swimming pool that is in my backyard that I truly intend on making the full usage of over the next few months that will comprise the summer in sunny Arizona, where I reside. I started an aggressive weight loss regiment about ten months ago, and I was reading online the other day about some awesome water aerobics exercises that can really tone you up in... Read More

I Finally Love To Go Swimming! |
| 2/4/2010 4:17:07 PM |
After losing a ton of weight over the winter season, I was really ready for it to be summer. I had always wanted to look great and go swimming in a beautiful bathing suit, but I had never felt good enough about myself. Now with my new body and high confidence, I was finally ready to buy a great bathing suit and go swimming with all of my friends.
I found my swimming suit at... Read More |

It's Almost Time to Begin the Outdoor Camping Festivities |
| 1/20/2010 3:59:01 AM |
| Before we became parents, my husband swore that he would never sleep outside, in a tent or under the stars with his kids. He thought that it would be just too uncomfortable and tasking. Yes, he was pretty adamant about NOT doing any outdoor camping of any sort. Well, we eventually became parents, and...he became the biggest outdoor camping lover that you could have ever...

Swimming Helped Me Get into Great Shape! |
| 12/27/2009 12:23:59 PM |
Personally, I think swimming is one of the best ways to get into spectacular shape. I realized this several years ago when my sister took a lifeguard training course. My sister was in pretty decent shape when she began this course, but after its completion, I could hardly believe the results! She had been a little flabby and soft in some areas, and her endurance needed... Read More |

Swimming in winter |
| 11/27/2009 2:38:49 PM |
I have a friend who bought a second small home in the Phoenix area. Her family lives in the northwest where I used to live. She got a fantastic deal on this fixer-upper, plus it comes with an indoor community pool. The pool was very important to her as she loves swimming and her main exercise is water aerobics. Her year-around community swimming pool here in the Valley is... Read More |

Daughter Loves to Go Swimming |
| 10/16/2009 8:07:05 AM |
My daughter loves to swim! It amazes me how it can be autumn, and because it hasn't cooled down too much on the Gulf Coast, the kids still want to go to the beach. Every weekend for the past month my husband has asked the kids what they wanted to do for fun. Every weekend my daughter replies, "Can we go swimming?"
I love to swim and doing water aerobics, so being... Read More |

My Kids Love Swimming |
| 10/16/2009 7:35:50 AM |
| My kids are starting swimming lessons again. They are both very excited. We did not have them doing swimminglessons during the summer. They had enough things to do this summer. We just did not have the time. But they missed it and could not wait until swim class started up again. We had expected to go to the beach several times during the summer so they could swim. But the... Read More |

 Doggy Puddling with noodles
It is such a joy to go swimming with children. Children always have the funniest things to say, as they are so innocent in nature.
My step-son had gone over to a friend's house on the other side of town. They were going to spend the afternoon in the swimming pool. It was late in the summer, so the pool water was not heating up as much in the... Read More |

Winter and Outdoor Camping |
| 9/20/2009 9:19:36 PM |
The temperature outside was a balmy 28 degrees. Not exactly the ideal outdoor camping weather, but the hot springs will be perfect. My family and I packed up the camping cookware and headed off for a weekend of water aerobics, swimming and resort camping at a beautiful hot springs in Montana.
The drive was filled with sightings of antelope and moose, along with the... Read More |

Swimming In The Ocean |
| 8/28/2009 8:42:06 PM |
Recently our family was relocated from the mountains of upstate NY to the Gulf Coast shores of Alabama. It was the first time that my children were exposed to the ocean and all of its vast glory.
Our first trip to the beach to go swimming in the ocean was not more than two or three days after we made the move South. The kids love swimming, even though they hadn't fully... Read More |

Outdoor Camping Makes Me Feel So Alive! |
| 8/28/2009 3:49:43 AM |
 The best and most vivid memories of my childhood are those of my family and I going outdoor camping. Every morning, Mom would use her camping cookware to whip up a meal fit for kings while we snuggled deep into our sleeping bags to escape the crisp chill in the air. There was just something about the calm and quiet of the forest that melted all my cares away. While Mom... Read More |

Resort Camping Is a Family Thing! |

With the economy at an unprecedented low, people are going back to the basics...and that is especially true where vacations are concerned. This year my family went on an outdoor camping trip in the Georgia mountains. I had forgotten how beautiful it is. We found ourselves spending time at a State Park with a lake and swimming area, fishing, and hiking trails, and... Read More |

Why Swimming Is My Favorite Cardiovascular Exercise |
| 8/7/2009 7:44:20 PM |
 Swimming has long been my favorite form of aerobic exercise. I have enjoyed swimming ever since I knew how and I can remember being a young child and feeling terribly excited when my mother took me to the public pool. Now swimming is something I do every day during the summer months because my husband and I have an in-ground pool on our property.
I like swimming because it... Read More |

| School is out and city, small town, and home swimming pools are getting plenty of use by our children. This is a sport most kids love to do and swimming is a great way for our children to get plenty of healthy exercise and have fun at the same time. For older children you might want to sign them up for a water aerobics class for addition health benefits. I learned to swim... Read More |
