Love

June 11, 2021

I’ve mentioned it before but tennis is my newest obsession. I’d play everyday if I could – and practically do! Having the kids home this summer is sort of cramping my tennis style but I’m making it work. 😉 Before school was out I did play in the Member Guest tournament at Vestavia Country Club with my friend, Angie. We had a lot of fun and ended up the big winners!!

Woohoo!

I’ve also been doing cardio tennis a lot and each day the winning pair gets to be “Queen”! It sure is fun to be queen!

I even earned queen one day with no partner! Woohoo!

I’ve had so much fun with my 2.5 group but our tennis pro just moved me up so I get to start practicing with the 3.0 now! Woohoo again! It’s been fun with the 2.5 ladies. We’re a match set! ha!

Finally, it’s time for my protege’s training to begin. Have you ever seen a cuter rookie?!

Tennis fun for all!

Rewinding it back to last month before school was out…

Maxwell’s class finally got to go on some field trips! They went to Vulcan and also to the zoo…

Off to camp!

On Saturday we drove up to North Carolina to drop Maxwell off at camp. These kids had no fun at all together in the hotel the night before…

We all went out to dinner that night and walked around the downtown Riverwalk area of Greenville, SC. It was pretty cool!

We got up nice and early the next morning to head up the mountain for drop off! Thanks to covid, no parents got to get out of the car or walk into camp. We just had to basically drop and run. I will say that the whole process went very smooth and was quick and easy.

I got a little teary when it was time for Maxwell to get out of the car but then we realized that it was one of his counselors helping the kids out so that was a good distraction!

I later found out his counselor is from Mountain Brook, is neighbors with one of my best friends, and that he’s a smart, really cool kid – and an Alabama fan! I’d say Maxwell is in very good hands! Off he goes for 3 weeks fun and adventure!
