I used to play tennis a lot before I had kids Its been at least 3 years since I've picked up a racket...and today I did! It was in the 70's here in my neck of the woods (GA), and the weather inspired me. Not only did I pick it up, but I brought my kids along, and it was soooo much fun playing with them and teaching them the basics. Plus, I burned about 200 calories doing it! It feels good. I definately will be doing it more when the weather stays warm. I had forgotten how much I loved playing.

I agree, it's awesome that you spend that time with your kids. What a great way to bond and keep them active!
I looooove tennis, I played a lot last year. I actually had a really steep learning curve and got pretty good after a couple weeks! I have my own racket and balls but nowhere to play now that we've moved. :frown:0 -
