well it's probably more accurate to say that I'VE decided that we will be a tennis family.
steve and i both grew up playing tennis. neither one of us have played in years, but have decided we will start playing again. there are tennis teams and mixed double matches in our neighborhood, and the moment i knew we were moving here i immediately decided we would pick this up again. we are hoping to meet some other people in our neighborhood who play. and being active is a good thing. (at least i keep reminding myself)
we bought the girls rackets for valentines day. (pink no less) if we are gonna be out there playing tennis we figured they would want to have something to do as well. i don't know if they'll fall in love with tennis, but i hope they do!
here they are posing today with their rackets. when they don't use them as guitars, maybe they'll hit a ball or two. anna katherine is already doing pretty well after only 2 days of practice! sara isn't so interested at this point...
any tennis players out there?

Mine has always been a tennis family, we've been to Wimbledon, US Open, my sister to the French. I always held out on learning til about a year and a half ago. Now Carl and I are quasi-learning. We did play V-day too with my parents. Fun times!
Yay! I love tennis, although I haven't played consistently in years so I'm really no good. But I'd love to take a few lessons and get back into it!
I will never forget finally joining MCC in the mid-80's and feeling like somebody for being a member. How ridiculous. But playing tennis was tons of fun and it will be a great family/outreach experience for you guys. My family is going the golf route but the kids can sure play tennis if they want!
Great family sport! And your girls have to have some of the biggest personalities I have ever seen...it even shows in their pictures...I love it!
I'm looking forward to the next video with the tennis rackets. That will be interesting. Maybe Steve can talk Clay into playing some. I'm always up for it!
ahh, we love tennis! and we love cute tennis skirts even more :)
