Sled Hockey with Nathan

Sue and the kids came down for the weekend. Nathan had a hockey game in MD and then one right here in Arlington.  They spent one night with us and then we met them in Arlington to watch Nathan play hockey.

It was very cool, it's been about 10 years since we've seen him play.  

This was the first game he got to play with his newly earned white helmet.  Now that he has been selected for the National Developmental Team he gets to wear the white helmet with the USA flag.  He was one of only 2 kids on the developmental team and 2 national team members playing.

Sled Hockey is such and amazing sport.  The coordination and talent it takes to propel yourself around on the sled and still be able to get the puck, shoot and score is crazy.

It was great to see the kids and watch Nathan play.  Just think one day, we will probably get to see Nathan in the Olympics - I sure hope it's somewhere nice!!
