Oh my gosh what a FUN weekend!

Live streaming Singles on Friday night was a blast 😁 I didn't live stream anything on Saturday, but I was able to grab some pretty fun videos (I'll be posting those this week!).

Julio and I played together for the FIRST TIME today and got silver! So many fun games, points, and people ❤️

Thank you to The Jar Pickleball Club for a wonderfully run tournament, thank you to Julio for being such a great partner, thank you to Rob Noonan for my paddle, gear, and support, and thank you to all the players for a beautiful day of pickleball. I love you guys so much.

Should we go to Texas?!?!?!? 🤔

Hey, everyone!

It was a wonderful weekend at The Jar Pickleball Club for the Nothwestern Mutual Charity Tournament! I was able to stream 19 videos, and they'll be on my feed for about 28 more days if you'd like to watch them.

It was also wonderful to learn about Alex's Lemonade Stand and how they support childhood cancer research.

Overall, it was great pickleball for a great cause. Thank you to the players, the sponsors, and the Jar ❤️

The Jar is going to be my home for the weekend 🏠 and it can be yours, too! Click your heels, jump in your magic bubble, and come on over! 👠😅

Take some time on Friday and Saturday to watch the Charity Tournament (either in person or on my live stream). Hope to see you there!

And a shameless plug: I'm also on Instagram 😁
