Swimsuit retirement


Have you ever heard of a drag suit?? It is a swimsuit that increases the amount of water resistance and then in theory increases swimming speed and endurance. Basically, it is an old suit that is too thin, too droopy and too see-through to continue to wear. So, what the kids do is tie it in knots wherever they can and layer it on top of another suit. Voila...a drag suit!

This is Maddie's favorite practice suit that she finally "retired" last week. About time, huh? It's definitely seen better days.

And guess what's become of it now?

Nope...

No...

It's artwork! She's got it hanging by a couple tacks on her bedroom wall.

She's always had a flair for eccentric design.
