basketball - for father AND son

We're nearing the end of March Madness, and Henry has developed a fast love of basketball this spring. A love of dab-da-baal to be exact! He asks for basketball almost as soon as we wake up in the morning. The little basketball is just the right height to be a challenge, but one that he can succeed at 9 times out of 10.

Ok, I know this picture is blurry, but look at that concentration, that form! Too bad he's not bowling....

Almost, almost, almost....

Swish!

And to relive the good old days, Gabe took part in some bookstore basketball! Team You're Not That Special, Trust Us, We Read Your Application vs. Team Cupcake was a great game, with a win by the admissions counselors. And of course, the other team provided cupcakes for everyone at the end! Gabe even got some baskets, followed by Henry's cheers of DaDa!

UPDATED: Check out the article in the Observer (the second game reviewed).




Henry brought his own basketball and hoop, which was a big hit with warm-ups before the game, mostly because the counselors didn't have a regular ball to use.
