Making a racquet!

So, I'm officially kind of obsessed with tennis. I played for a season in High School and really loved it. Unfortunately, I stopped playing while I was at college and on the mission and got a little rusty.

A few weeks ago, Steph and I went in and bought tennis racquets for the both of us. I even got a great deal on the racquets (To quote Dad, "there's no status in overpaying"). Since then I have started playing with a few friends and Steph has been learning to play. It is a really nice balance because it allows me to play both competitively with some friends and recreationally with Steph.

However, I don't expect that to last long. Steph has been learning very quickly and is starting to get pretty good. She even beat me in one of our games! I uh.....just couldn't get my serves in. No really!

It is really good to be back in the game and getting a little exercise in when I'm not swamped with schoolwork. I hope to play again tomorrow!
