Hey there Chris..nice hawk. I was homeschooled through 4th grade as well, AND basketball has been a huge part of my life too. Can’t wait to meet you..maybe I’ll have to meet you on the court once or twice. =)
Hey Chris! Sweet ‘do. You sound like you come from a big family like mine (I have like twenty-something cousins! Ah!), but I love it and wouldn’t have it any other way. Look forward to meeting ya 🙂
