Tennis Cubed

Our family likes tennis,

but with the exception of Daddy (who played a lot in college),

most of us aren't very good at it yet.

It's hard to enjoy tennis together when rallies don't last longer than 30 seconds . . .

. . . so we recently invested in a Tennis Cube ball machine.

We got it partly so we can practice and improve our tennis skills,

and partly so we can have fun together on the tennis courts this summer.

We broke out our new tennis ball machine for the first time today,

then lined up and took turns hitting the balls it lobbed at us.

Most of us were a little rusty because we haven't played much 

since we took lessons back in 2020 and 2021.

(Our private tennis "P.E. classes" were my favorite part of homeschooling.)

Hopefully we'll be able to hit as hard and as accurately

as Daddy someday.

For now . . .

. . . most of us feel pretty good if we hit the ball at all.
