Tennis...

So I have mentioned the list before (the one of stuff I want to do before I die) and it just so happens that 'be a good tennis player' is one of those things on the list. I have never played tennis before, and I will admit that I only put this on my list so I could wear the cute tennis outfits....but now I actually want to learn how to play. Well the other day I'm talking about how much I want to play tennis and how Ben should play with me, and it turns out that Ben has a good tennis racket. (He used to play with his friends)
So we went out and bought some tennis balls and I got a racket :)...and its pink :) and we ended up playing!! We went to a court at some park and besides the swarms of mosquitoes we had a lot of fun! I'm excited because this is something Ben and I can do together that is not the normal "going out to eat and a movie" thing. Plus maybe some day I can cross being a good tennis player off my list...if my crazy backhand gets a little work. haha. So yay for tennis!

Ben wouldn't let me take any pictures of him but here's me and my new racket!

ooooo check out those details! haha

Charlie was happy too because we gave him one of the tennis balls. He carries that thing everywhere now and is very protective of it!

That is awesome! I have recently gotten into tennis as well. I started taking lessons with one of my friends and even got one of the cute tennis outfits (thanks to my husband). It is a great way to do something different and get some exercise in.
