We finally got our basketball hoop up!
We are so excited to play ball outside with our kids. When I was younger I loved to shoot in my driveway with my Dad. If I was shooting when he got home from work he would take the ball and say "If I miss this shot then you don't have to do dishes for a year". There he would be in his suit and dress shoes three drive way lengths away from the hoop and he would make those shots every time, with what appeared to be no effort. It was a little aggravating actually. I don't like doing dishes.
Rhett had been out of town on a business trip, when he got home Colby ran outside to play basketball with his Dad. Rhett and his buddy Steve were watching Colby shoot. After his last shot as he was fading away and faded right into our over 6 feet deep window well. Head first. So we rushed Colby into the doctors office and found out that he had a concussion. He had some memory loss and confusion a terrible head ache and pain in his eyes, but other then that he was all right. So tomorrow we are getting our window well covers and I am going to purchase those bubbles to put my kids in. Anyone know who sells them?

Wow. Colby's had a rough time lately. Let me know when you find those plastic bubbles. I'd be interested in purchasing some too. : )
I second Jalinda! So sorry. Give him a Texas hug for us, that should make him feel better. : )
I hope I have boys! :) I am glad he was okay.
I really liked reading about your dad playing ball with you. Such sweet memories.
I apologize but I had to chuckle a bit when you said Colby "faded into the window well". It just put a funny picture in my head. You need to wrap that kid in bubble wrap and put him on a leash! Poor kids had a rough go lately.
