Tennis Anyone?

For the last year or so I have been playing tennis. Anyone that knows me or is around me knows this because I have ended up playing it alot. Boy do I love it. It is an exercise that I actually like and I have fun playing with so many great ladies.

Well my little 2.5 ladies tennis team just won our sectional championship tournament this last weekend! I am so proud of us. Our team is undefeated in the Summer season and through both the district (utah) and sectional (intermountain states) tournaments. Next up is the National tournament in Palm Springs. I have heard that the competition is really tough but we will go and have fun playing tennis. That is what it is all about. Fun. Luckily we have been able to win along the way.

P.S. our uniforms were so great. They were from ShabbyApple.com They have a new fitness line out (not just tennis stuff). Take a look!

School's In

Here are some pictures from the first day of school. This year the triplets are in Mrs. Timothy's 5th grade class and Jake is in Mrs. Graham's 3rd grade class. Every year our neighbor Kirsten hosts a neighborhood breakfast where everyone gathers before walking over to the school. It is fun but the kids are usually so excited that they don't eat breakfast. Next year we will have to have a pre-breakfast.

***Note, I know my method of naming people in pictures might be a little annoying but because I don't have permission from their parents to post their pictures or their names I feel an obligation to not give their full name. You might say, why list them at all? Since this is really a family journal I hope that when we look back at the pictures in 25 years it will help us to remember their names.
