Our Tennis Baby
Last week Sam and I went to Grand Junction to play in the Taco Bell Western Slope Open Tennis Tournament. It's a very family friendly, fun tennis tournament that I played in pretty much every summer once I learned how to play tennis, so it was fun to take Sam back with me to play in it! Sam and I played mixed doubles, singles, and Sam and Brigham played doubles together as well. I also had a brother, sister, cousin, uncle, and many family friends playing in different events. Needless to say, Clara watched a LOT of tennis matches! Well, she actually mostly slept through them, but was definitely exposed to the magnificent sport.
I think she likes tennis.
At least she is pretending to like it to humor her mother and father.
I know what you are thinking. You are thinking, "They are brainwashing their child to love tennis!"
Well perhaps you are right.
But clearly she loves it too.
Can't wait to take her to the US Open in a month!
Oh ps: Sam and I won mixed doubles, and both of our singles divisions, Sam and Brig won the consolation bracket of their dubs division, AND the Daily Sentinel wrote an awesome (albeit very cheesy) article about yours truly that was featured on the front page of the sports section. Score!

ReplyDeleteObsessed with those pictures of her. What a little doll!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sara! I jump at any excuse to dress her up and take unnecessary pictures. :-)
Deletethose pictures make her look like a bundle of grapes!!
ReplyDeleteHaha. I didn't think of that, but so true!
DeleteLove the pictures! She is such a sweetie.
ReplyDeleteThat was a very well written entry. By the way, could you add a link to that cheesy newspaper article you mentioned? (Is there an online version?)
