Mixed doubles: Not cocktails...Tennis!

So my hub and I have joined a mixed doubles tennis league and we play our first match this weekend. We went out to hit with some friends earlier this evening. They killed us. My hub hasn't played in five or six years so this was his first time on the court in a while. We had a great time playing together and I can actually see us being a really good team...eventually.
We decided to join this league because tennis is a sport that we both enjoy and we have both played doubles before in league play but just not together. We thought it would be fun to have a hobby in common. Something for the two of us to enjoy doing together. Kind of like a date night, but with perspiration and exersize involved. We'll see how it goes...

OOOOHHHH, I love the idea of mixed doubles, but really of the cocktail variety. But sweating is always good too. Please keep us posted on this newest adventure...not sure Mike and I could handle a "joint hobby".
Love ya like a mango martini....

Good for you! A joint hobby or interest is a good thing! I convinced Lee to let me apply for a Springtime Crewe because I think we need to go out more. Same concept, but involves parties instead of excersise!
So other topics: What happened to McSteamy? He is sooo unsteamy! And the housewives, Love Bethany, Alex makes my skin crawl!
