Hello and happy Sunday!
I know — it’s crazy for me to post on a Sunday.
I’m not sure what my blogging schedule will be in the summer. I’m sure I will post regularly, but just kind of want to “go with the flow” these next couple of months.
Anyway, I thought I’d try to write some summer related posts on Sundays.
For this first Sunday post, I’m sharing some favorite pool/beach bags that I either own or have found.
On Friday, I had my first official pool day which meant I got out my pool bag for the first time this summer.
I shared this pic last summer with some of my “Summer Staples,” and I already know that I will use it a lot this summer too.
Walmart:
So, I picked up this Canvas tote bag from Walmart last summer. It was the perfect size for packing just what I need for the pool. Last summer was the first summer, I wasn’t packing all the things for the kids. Now, when they go to the pool, they typically take what they need, or pack very minimally — Hayden throws a towel over his shoulders, hops on his bike, and that’s all he needs. haha
I loved this bag so much that I took it with me to Florida and California last summer.
Anyway, Walmart has this summer’s version of the tote that comes in a few cute patterns…and it’s only $15!
Scout bag:
We’ve belonged to our pool for eight years, and my first summer at the pool, I saw all the swim team moms with Scout bags.
I ordered one, and it’s still in great shape! I believe mine is the “original” size large. Mine doesn’t have a top zipper, but they do make ones that do zip.
It was perfect for the years I was lugging all the things to the pool…multiple towels, goggles, sunscreen, pool toys and more.
I still keep the bag to use when I do need to bring more things or if we are all going to the lake or the beach.
Bogg bag:
Bogg bags still seem to be all the rage. They come in a few sizes and lots of colors. I know they are nice because they are sturdy and can hold quite a bit.
I don’t have one, but we gave one to a friend for her birthday a couple of years ago.
Target:
I don’t have it, but the “Caning Tote” seems to be really popular this summer.
The brown one was the first one I saw shared as well as the crossbody purse.
The brown tote seems to come in and out of stock, but there’s also yellow and black.
Amazon:
I was clicking around Amazon and saw this beach tote. It’s a good size, water and sand proof, comes in a variety of colors, and has pockets on the inside.
It’s just $22 and has lots of good reviews.
Oh the pool days sure look different than they used to!
I hope you are having a great weekend.
