Tennis is not for Wimps!

With Basketball, Kacey practiced everyday but only played 2 games a week. Tennis is not for wimps! This three and four matches a week are hard on her and us! I am exhausted tonight and never left the bench! Last night the Lady knights defeated Boaz. Kacey/Emma won doubles 8-2. Kacey won her singles.. 10-5. Almost through Singles it began to rain, they called a brief break to let it pass over and let the court dry. they went back Kacey on the next point stepped way out to hit a ball and re injured her foot. Same place. She was able to finish and then the trainer looked at it and same as last time she is over extending her arch. Ice/Advil and we bought arch cushions for her shoes but tonight they didn't last but through the first set and out they came. She said they were causing it to hurt worse. So they called a injury time out and tried wrapping it up and that helped a little but you could tell it still hurt.


They played at Point Mallard today. Her doubles match started at 3:30 and ended at 5:30... again, tennis is not for wimps. Emma/Kacey lost their first set 4-6 and were losing the second set 1-4 before coming back and tying the set at 6-6. After and Ad in, Kacey/Emma won and it went into a tie breaker. They lost the tie breaker 7-10


They fought hard and I was sooo proud of them and the character/witness they show win or lose!


It was sooo hot... I can not get over this March weather... 84 degrees when they began.





What a volley! ;-)


and allergy season is kicking us hard as well.


Starting singles. they twirl their rackets to see who gets to serve first, I know everyone does it but it totally gripes me when they do because rackets are not cheap.... ;-)




And this is what time we got home

On another note Greg carried Grace to softball. She hasn't felt well all week. Poor baby. I remember when they were little and not feeling well and we were limping through the week I would just pray Lord help us make it through Friday and we are going to rest/crash come Saturday! This is one of those weeks... Lord help us make it the rest of the week.
