Hoop it up!

Meg has always loved basketball; it's a part of who she is.  We've been living together for 15 years, and we FINALLY have a basketball hoop!  Meg, I'm sorry it has taken me this long to enable this part of you, there's no excuse!  It was going to be a Christmas gift to the family, but hey it's 2020 and we have been stuck at home and stuck inside for far too long, so we bought it and put it up 2 weeks ago, and it has been awesome!  We've been teaching the kids all the classic games like Horse, Pig, Knockout, Round the World, etc.  We've been out there pretty much every day playing, except for the past week since we've had snow.  It is such a great thing to do that is outdoors, active, and fun.  Makes for a great break from the home schooling and working for us.  

And perhaps the best part is we're starting to see some love of the game developing in the kids, something Meg has tried to encourage all along!
