Started planning for my daughters tennis banquet before the season even started. Found oversized tennis balls to use for autographs. I ironed on a logo that I created. They look really good. The girls loved them. I made little banners for the table centerpieces. I used glass containers filled with lemon heads (which look like little tennis balls) then put the little banners in those. I also used tennis balls everywhere and a lot of balloons in our school colors. So after a lot of planning and creating what a great night. The girls all seemed to really appreciate all the work that went into planning this evening for them. We had an amazing turn out after not thinking anyone was going to come (20 RSVPS-?!?). It was an emotional night. It started when my daughter was sitting at the computer writing her speech about her coach. I lost it when she started to read the words that she always so eloquently places on paper. She has grown up so fast and has become a wonderful young lady. So PROUD of her! I did fine at the banquet until all the senior Mom's had to get up and say something. I was not so eloquent. I started to open my mouth and the tears just came. Another last time event. No more tennis banquets. Wow! Were does the time go. Lots of memories and cherished moments with all of these tennis girls. So glad I got a chance to get to know them. Thankful for those moments!
