It's Hoops Time Baby!

Today we unveiled another new backyard toy, a basketball goal. It was a 2009 garage sale acquisition, which we deemed too advanced for them at the time. Retrieving it from storage this week, I hoped the boys were ready to play with it. Because toys deteriorate so quickly outside, introducing the goal too early would risk it becoming weather damaged before receiving use. We already have an infant sized goal in the living room, and they’ve been shooting big basketballs into the big baskets at church, but only with the assistance of Daddy and Pa lifting the toddlers above their heads. This is the first pre-school sized goal Benji and Trey Davey have seen, and I wondered if they’d be interested. My question was instantly answered when they each raced to make a basket.
