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!

Nice! The only time I ever played tennis was in gym class my freshman year. And I was terrible. I think it may have been because both me and the girl I was playing with didn't really know what we were doing... but yeah. I've always wanted to get better at it, so go you and Steph!
Watch out Jon. Stephanie just might be the Melanie Oudin in your tennis plans.
