Sport Court

We did mention this is our "dream home", right?

Many people ask how this all came to fruition.  So, to make a long story short... Since college, Jeff dreamed of building his own home.  He thought it would be pretty cool to have a full-size racquetball court in it.  It would be something the whole family would enjoy!  Since age 20, he's been sketching ideas and putting them in a folder.  When the two of us met, he said someday he would build us a Dream Home.  Although I never imagined living in such a great house, my husband (with the help of many of our friends/family) has built us an amazing place we will be calling our "Home".  This Sport Court is the highlight of the house!

Plastic is layed down first to help with water-proofing.
The perimeter is lined with cork for expansion.

Two guys layed all the wood.

It took a couple of days.

It was sanded.

Last, they painted the stripes and sealed it.
Might I say, it is quite AWESOME!
 
Red:  Racquetball

We plan on playing a lot of volleyball too.
The net will be installed later though.
 
Santa brought us the basketball hoop.
