Tennis Tournaments!

When Jared graduated, I was kind of sad that my days of following kids in their sports were over. Well, I have gained another kid in sports! Blake has been playing some league tennis, so I have someone to go watch again! This fall he played in a mixed doubles league, he and his partners won every single match they played in Idaho Falls. His whole team did really well and they qualified to to go to the next level! I can't remember if they call it districts or sectionals but it seemed like he was going to State Tennis! It was in Boise at the Boise Racquet and Swim Club, which is were Jared played state high school tennis. So, Randy and Courtney came with us to Boise. We stayed at the Residence Inn (just like we  have for state high school tournaments), and watched tennis in the same courts! Even though Blake and his partners didn't even win a set in Boise, we had a great time!


We are great cheerleaders!
Then last week, Blake played in a tournament at Apple Athletic. He entered in 3 events, singles, men's doubles with Randy, and mixed doubles with a gal named Jen. He ended up being the champion in the singles, and mixed doubles! He and Randy were the runners up! I am a very good spectator and love to watch! Go Blake!
