Jack Plays Tennis, But You'll Just Have to Take My Word



Jack decided to sign up for tennis this year. New school, new sport! We were so excited for him, and so proud!


Here he is in yellow alongside his doubles partner, Matthew Morse, who happens to be a very good friend, and also a 6th grader.


Matthew came to visit Jack while he was in the hospital in St. Louis in July. A really nice kid!






Ok, not the best photographic shot. This is between points or something and they're just casually walking at the end of the court. But there is another match's ball whizzing into the screen. Maybe we'll see some real sports action in these pictures?!!





Oh, okay, so I caught this one when it was Matthew's serve.

Let's go, Matthew!


Here they are playing the other Edwardsville Middle School, Liberty vs. Lincoln. That's some hot competition going on! Rival schools, you know!




[The day following this, they played Triad Middle School. Sorry, no pictures. ]








Ball boy, Sam, ready to run cross-court to retrieve runaway tennis balls. In his cowboy boots.
Hey, this one is a good enough picture you can actually see the pink stuff all over his shirt front.


My bet's on popsicles, but who really knows?












Oh, man, again, not such a good picture. C'mon, where's Jack??

He's who we came to see!




Scootch over, Matthew, please.












Dear Blogger,

You seriously need to fire Ms. Photographer if this is the best she can do.


Into the sun? Geez! How amatuer.







Maybe we can work with this shot a little?


Now, can you see him? He's holding the tennis ball. He has a racquet!




It's Jack playing tennis!











Jackson, my tennis man, you did great for your first tennis season!




You can't help it that your mom has no camera skillz.

And I might add, a videographer she aint.


But still, check out this serve!.
