Spring is here, and I need to shape UP!


     Since the weather has been incredibly nice recently, one of the high school guys in my church youth group asked me to go play tennis with him after church last Sunday.  I always say how I can play any sport pretty good, but I can't play any sport really good.  So, after probably ten years, I'm stepping back on the tennis court to once again hit balls over the fence.
     Thanks to a good friend for giving me one of his tennis rackets.  Kinda jumping on the band wagon, I wanted to get into tennis because so many of the other people at my church play it.

     I met up with two of the high school guys at the tennis courts just behind our church after we ate lunch.  We were joined by another college student shortly after to start up some doubles.  It didn't take me by surprise at the skill level they were displaying. 
However, what did surprise me was how well I played.  Granted one out of every two tennis balls I hit flew outside the court, but on the hits that were good, I hit the ball with persion and accuratey.  Even though I didn't know where to hit it most of the time.  All and all, it was a great time with the guys, and a great time of getting out and running around.
     So thank you guys for making me feel good feeling sore for the rest of the week!
