Tennis Camp

Natalie and Will
participated in a
week-long mini tennis
camp this week put on
by the city. They both
seemed to enjoy it pretty
much, although Will
cried part of the time
the first day. They had
some adults working with
them and then some
local high school tennis
team members helped
out, too. Thank goodness
it was inside! Momma
would have fried sitting
out in the sun that long!
Good planning on
someone's part.

Will had a tendency to
throw or kick
every ball that came
his way...we're thinking
he may be more suited
for baseball or soccer!
He also showed "left
hand dominance" which
Erick and I had been
suspecting. We won't
know or sure until they
test him in preschool
this year, but everytime
he went to throw the
ball or swing the racket,
it was always with his
left hand! This family
needs a lefty!

Natalie's favorite part
was checking out the
cute tennis skirts on
some of the female
coaches. She informed us
the first day that she
needed one of those so
she could be "stylish!"

On the last day, the kids
got to run through a
"tennis tunnel" (the coaches
holding the rackets up),
take one last swing and then
they each got their own tube
of tennis balls! They were
thrilled!
