Ah, Wimbledon!
One can't help thinking about the tradition, pageantry and history of Wimbledon at the mention of the name.
We had the good fortune to receive tickets to the Women's Final on Saturday and I was thrilled!
I should preface this by saying that although I follow tennis and have played in the past, I am not a tennis groupie. I know who's who and what the latest stats are but that is as far as it goes. Mr. H likes to comment that I should remember that I was once captain of the 'C' team in days gone by. I am never quite sure how to take that little smile of his when he mentions it but I usually come back with some witty reply. We like to do things like that...drives our kids crazy. I digress....back to Wimbledon!
The crowd was ready....
The crowd was ready....
The photographers were ready....
THE WOMEN'S FINAL
2010
Serena Williams vs Vera Zvonareva
we said 'ooooohhh' Serena
we said 'aaahhh' Serena
we said 'wwwooahh' Serena
we said 'yeah' Vera
we said 'ooowww' Vera
with Serena's serves at 122mph we were silent...
The deed was done!
Serena won and gave us a little dance..
and a wave...
and a big smile with her fourth Wimbledon title.
The crowd was happy, I was happy,
what a day, what a match!
Ah, Wimbledon !
