AWARDS CEREMONY!!!!!

Today was Westlake Christian's Awards Ceremony.  Zachary was quite the honoree.  He got the National Physical Fitness Award (which is a patch to sew on something, plus a certificate).  He got the High Honor Roll Award (which is for 4.0 or higher).  The most impressive award was the Ninth Grade Most Outstanding Student.  We are so proud!

Most Outstanding Student Award (with Dr. Healan).

Tonight everyone will be here for the Memorial Weekend Celebration.  Zachary has a baseball game tonight.  Tomorrow we will have our picnic at the park.  Sunday we will worship our Lord at VCL.  Monday, the last of the Mohican's returns home.

The weather has warmed up a bit - so we are praising the Lord for that.  In fact, there isn't any rain in sight - a miracle for sure!

THE BOY!!!!!

Yes, he really has a sound board (24 channels).  Crazy kid!  Chatham and Zachary have used this many times and have had a lot of fun with it.

Zachary joined the 15-16 year old boys baseball team in Gurnee (25 minutes north of us).  Vernon Hills doesn't have a team after 8th grade.  They expect you to play on your high school team.  Of course, Westlake doesn't have a team.  So, we searched and found a team in Gurnee.  Zachary's team is the Phillies.  They wear retro uniforms.  They are pretty ugly, but that is what they wear.

#4 - First baseman and pitcher

Come watch him play!
