Top Spin

Wednesday, July 30, 2014
Mark played tennis in high school so he is pretty darn good. 

I hadn't done more than try bump a ball over the net with family members until I got tired.
I hadn't had any proper practice, so the number of balls I have sky rocketed over fences (and lost) in my career is well over any number I'd be comfortable sharing. 



I've been working on my game quite a bit with Mark and he
has taught me so much!
Top spin has changed my life. 

But there is so much more to learn.  I still end up smacking the net because I don't finish high enough or don't hit it hard enough.  But it has been a lot of fun!



Lily tags along every time we go




Tennis is fun.  I can agree to that. 
But I like to think it is almost like golf....
they both make me so angry, I feel like chucking the racket/club from time to time.



Since I use Mark's old (but preferred) racket every time we play, 
he decided to invest in a new one!


Slightly jelly...



We [I mainly] enjoy being odd on the court as well. 


What hobby are you picking up?

  1. My friend played tennis at school too. I trained some times with her and understood that it is totally not my kind of sport. I'm a basketball lover!
