Marcus' new baby

Now that we've created a basketball team, it was time we got a hoop!


The tiles come in next week. In the meantime, Marcus and the kids have been enjoying the hoop and the newly-smoothed concrete pad.


(Marcus, I think that's cheating when you lower the hoop so you can dunk!)

  1. I like the net in the back, that's a good idea! Or....maybe it would be better to let the kids chase their balls...they would learn quick that it's important to make a basket!! And in the meantime they'd wear themselves out running after balls heheh.

    What are the tiles you mentioned? for the bball court?

  2. The "rebounder" net isn't just for errant shots, it's for wall ball, tennis, soccer, and bball passing practice. Behind the hoop was the smartest place to put it and the kids love it! They are out there every day.

    The tiles are plastic 2x2' ish pieces and they will have lines painted on them (key, 3 point etc.). We were only going to do 2/3 of the concrete pad, and have 1/3 be landscaped patio later...but now Marcus wants it to be ALL bball court. :o)
