Player of the Game

Nick made an awesome catch in left field. Then in another inning at 3rd base he made an amazing snag even though the catcher overthrew the ball. Got put in to replace the pitcher and closed out the inning. Then up at bat hit a true double way over the right-fielder's head. It was amazing!

They lost the game, but when they were giving their cheer the coaches asked the team, "What do you want to say?" (Usually "1, 2, Hillcrest!" or something like that) and one of the players said, "1, 2, Nick!" Ha, ha! Remember that great feeling when you've made your team proud?

And yet, he wouldn't give me a real smile!

Today Nick got an award at the Awards Assembly for being a strong student in College and Career Awareness.

Although this smile is pretty cute!

And what's been going on with Chris? He rode the Vespa to school today (feels like summer!) and is going rock-climbing almost every evening. Last night he went racing with our bishop. Kind of a cool thing they have in common. More racing this weekend. Friday and Saturday for Dan and Saturday for Chris. Nick may go on Saturday if they've have a go-Karts session.

Last weekend Chris caught two fish on the trip with Dan. He had a great time.
