This weekend was filled with basketball. Have I mentioned that Calem has a great 3-point shot? He does. It’s also an overcast day. I have a love/hate relationship with cloudy weather. I love it. But I think my body hates it. Have you even noticed that cloudy & chilly weather makes you want to [...]
