Basketball, Ballet & a Birthday

 We'd been debating when to get Chase a "real" basketball hoop for the driveway.  We were thinking of waiting until next Spring but recently he plays nonstop in the playroom with the hoop on the back of the door.  We decided why wait and found one on Craig's list that fit Dave's specifications!  You can see that Chase couldn't possibly be happier.
 He will play all the time if you let him.  
 He takes it pretty serious.  I had a great video to put on here, but it was sideways and that was kind of annoying to watch so I'll try again!
 Taylor wasn't as thrilled with the purchase.  She'll stick to shopping.
 And watching from the sidelines.  
Her car (and mine too) has been hit on the roof more than once so far!
Ballet this past week was great again.  She was most excited that Dave came to watch her.  There were 3 girls in her class this week and by the middle of the class it was down to just 1, surprisingly Taylor!  Tears have gotten the best of the rest of them.  After this week if it's still a small class she gets to move up with the older girls.
   She was also proud of her new "princess bag" to carry her shoes.

 We went to a semi-surprise birthday party this weekend for one of Dave's partners.  
Taylor is admiring the glow of the birthday cake.
 She was excited to find her buddy Kaylee there.
I had a buddy of my own to sit with too!
