What happens when.....

 you have a 13 year old boy wearing black and white Nikes....

playing an innocent game of  basketball in the front yard....

with great scenery behind the basketball hoop....

Are you kidding me???? How did that happen?!?!?!

Kids, you should NEVER ever kick a basketball not even when it's the opposite direction of your parents car! AND especially when there is a huge oak tree in the same direction that you are attempting to kick the ball. With the right amount of skill and effort you could kick that ball right into the side of that big oak tree and cause the ball to ricochet off the tree and straight into your mom's windshield. Makes for a not happy mom! Good thing that insurance in Florida pays for broken glass!!!


Lesson learned.....basketballs are for dribbling and footballs are for kicking but never in the direction of a car or window and especially not toward a tree!!

Poor Cody. Who would have known?? Tell him thanks though, because now I'll be able to spot your ghetto fabulous car anywhere!

Luckily it's already fixed and I didn't even take it anywhere. Love that they come right to your door! What I forgot to mention was that the boys wanted to make it even more gettofied by throwing baseballs at the window to shatter it more before it was fixed...be happy you are adding a girl to your family!!!

So glad that you're blogging again and sorry that I didn't see this sooner!

Girls might not kick a basketball into a tree that ricochets off a tree and hits your windshield but they will hang on the rear view mirror trying to lift themselves up and YANK the thing right off and actually tear chunks of glass out of the windshield! Just ask my Allison!
