Rocky grew up playing tennis. He has played more years of his life than he hasn't and he's taught and coached most of that time too. So one might assume that our kids are little tennis players following in their father's footsteps. Not so much. For one reason or another it just hasn't worked out for the kids to play much tennis. This past spring Rocky was hired as the Men's Tennis coach at his Alma Mater~Pacific Lutheran University. This is not only a huge blessing but an amazing honor to follow in the footsteps of some incredible coaches. He is beyond excited for this new journey and that excitement seemed to rub off on the kids too. The night he was hired Sam and Maggie took their racquets out and attempted a match in our driveway. Apparently he had to be hired as a college coach for them to appreciate they had a pro living in their house!
We hit the courts one night in July
so the whole family could get in on the tennis action.
Maggie keeping her eye on the ball
Sam just wants to hit it out of the ballpark
Miss Millie....loving every minute of her lesson!
Love this one of Millie. So happy to be learning from her dad the pro!
Once the tennis was over the kids wanted to race. I couldn't turn down Sam's challenge. I'd love to tell ya I won but let's just say it's been a long time since I've done any sprinting and four tennis courts length and back is a lot longer than I though it was. Yep, he beat me.
Love-Love
