Tonight I fly to Dallas to cheer Nick on at a big Strongman Comp!
He has been training like crazy and working very very hard.
He's in great shape and ready to go.
There will be 20 other heavy weight competitors from all over the United States.
He will compete Friday night and Saturday doing 5 events.
Goal: TO WIN! And get his PRO CARD :)
I will be sure to post a full recap when we get back.
It is kind of hard to believe that THIS GUY: (when I 1st met Nick, Freshman year in the dorms, remember Emily?!!)
Has become THIS GUY! ;)
But he has and I am very proud of him. His dedication is astounding and I hope he has a great contest.Here are some fun photos of past competitions over the years.

Good luck Nick!!!
Becca you must have your mothers sense of what their manfolk can become based on the pix of Nick and the Napoleon Dynomite shot of your dad.

GO NICKY!!! i was just thinking about him and all of this, and all of your history. i remember when your dad called him "nick the loser." little did we know what a misstatement that was. nick is a winner in my opinion. like i said, a pro in my book, with or without a card.
love you guys.

I can't believe Nick's transformation!! Good Luck! Lift a lot!! When you win, we should have a party!!
GO NICK GO!! I'll be thinking of you guys!
that is the craziest transformation! Now I can really appreciate where he's come from ....wow!
Nick's got this one in the bag...I can feel it!
Have fun in the big D!
Wow! - he looks completely different. How does one do that?
You are lucky you didn't bring Nick home when he was a frosh....He is pushing hard to overtake Napoeon Dynamite in that photo!!! Lots of hard work to get where Nick is at right now..!!! P.S. Will Finn look like that when he is a freshman???:)))!!!!
dad
i have to keep coming back to stare at that first photo. i remember when...
Just to clarify: Rebecca was the one to call him "Nick the Loser", freshman year....something to do with wearing pj pants all the time?? Little did we know then that he would be one of our great son in-laws. Love, Mom
Yeah, that is probably true. "Nick the Loser" was more of a term of endearment I think than anything. :) He was quite the character back then, and still is, just a much stronger character. And I've got him away from wearing a winter hat to bed, so that's good too. lol
