Basketball

Basketball has been Diego's new love these days. He asks daily if we can get a basketball hoop because he is always the first one out at speed when they play at recess and he says it's because he doesn't have a hoop to practice on. He may have a point. :) He does practice in our driveway, but when he's shooting with no hoop, I think he has a valid argument. :) Anyway, today a neighbor stopped by and they decided to play basketball. The next thing I know, they are using our garbage cans as a hoop and when they make it in, they just tip the can over, crawl in and grab the ball. ugh! (It was garbage day today so the cans were empty, but still...) We told them that they couldn't use the garbage cans as their hoops and they were very disappointed. Even though I was grossed out, I had to give them credit for making the best of what they have!!

On a side note and totally off the subject....My daredevil daughter decided to try and jump from the couch to the chair. I'm sure she has witnessed an older brother doing this and since she seems to be as daring as Diego when it comes to thrills, she tried it on her own. Lets just say she has a nice bruise on her head. It has been an interesting day!!!
