... Including a nasty, old basketball hoop.
For over three years we've ignored the yucky basketball hoop that came with the house at the end of our driveway. It was 10 feet tall, had fragments of a torn net hanging from it, along with a baseball-sized hole in the middle of the backboard, and was covered in black and green mold and fungus. What's not to ignore??
Well, after seeing how much Cole loved his little indoor basketball hoop, I decided it was worth trying to fix up our outdoor hoop too. Penny lowered it, I scrubbed it with soap and bleach, bought a new net and a couple of balls at Play It Again Sports, and it works great! The hole is still there, but for less than $10 we redeemed the rest of it - not too shabby!
And it's been so much fun playing basketball with the kids and as a family, even on these cool December days.
