Perfect Saturday Morning

Saturday was a beautiful day! Sunny, 78 degrees, and mild humidity! What more could you ask for? We took advantage of the great weather and decided to go play tennis. But we needed to buy tennis balls since we haven't played in 6 years!! So we took a short jog to Target and on the way we stopped by a pond to feed the ducks. Evan just loves the ducks! Everytime we pass them he says "quack, quack" and gets all excited. Evan couldn't quite get the bread into the pond, but he had a fun time anyway.

Of course once we got to Target we spent over half an hour there. How can you just run into Target for tennis balls? You have to look at everything along the way. I just love that store! I could spend a lot of money there, if I had money to spend that is.


We finally made it to the tennis courts and fortunately one was available. We brought along a racketball racket for Evan to play with, actually more to distract him, so we could play tennis. Since Rob and I hadn't played in 6 years and back then we weren't any good, we just practiced hitting the ball back and forth. No fancy stuff, such as serving, keeping score, or hitting the ball in bounds. Evan was our ball boy. He would run after all the balls that we hit poorly and bring them to us. What more could you ask for? It was perfect - Rob and I had a good time hitting the ball and Evan had a good time retrieving it! It was a perfect Saturday morning.
