Brie's graduation

I've been meaning to post about Brie's graduation, but for some reason it hasn't happened yet.  Maybe because I'm running in a million different directions all the time! ;) 

Anyway, here's the info I have......graduation tomorrow night at EV Cain at 6:45.  They will apparently be set up on the blacktop near the gym.  You can park at the school, Staples shopping center, or behind near the library.  Chairs will be provided or you can bring your own.  It will be a lengthy ceremony as there are 249 students in her graduating class (yikes!)  We are planning to head to Mel's afterwards for ice cream.  Hope you can join us there!!

VB - Regionals

Brie's last volleyball tournament is this weekend. It will be held at the Sacramento Convention Center. Saturday play starts at 3:30. No word yet on Sunday. I just might be able to squeeze in a baseball game and a volleyball tournament that day. Going to be a loonnnngggg day! :)

This Wednesday

Just a reminder that Adam will not be at his baseball game this Wednesday......he will be at his final band performance at Golden Sierra High School.  The show starts at 6:30 and there will be cookies afterwards. :)  Maybe we'll see you there!

3/30 Tournament

Just got word that Brie's volleyball tournament this Sunday will be at Placer!  Yay - a nice short drive!  Come on out and cheer her on. 😀

What's going on with Adam....

Adam has quite a few things going on that I wanted to let everyone know about. 


First of all, he will be performing at the Northside Evening of Music this Tuesday at 7:00. He did not want to do a solo, so he will only be performing with the band. 

Last week he started baseball practice. He is on the Cubs and practices Tuesdays and Fridays. Games should start in about a month or so and will be Wednesdays and Saturdays. I'll give more info about those when I find out myself. So far he's doing great!  He's even earned some Big League gum and batting gloves from his coach for taking a line drive that was supposed to be a pop fly. He's a tough kid that's for sure!!!

He also started a new GATE activity this past week as well. They are now doing a robotics class and he was super excited about after his first meeting. He said it was much better than when he tried it with 4-H. Not exactly sure what they'll be doing but hopefully I'll find out more soon. 

Basketball update

Just got word today about Adam's basketball tournament this weekend.  All games will be played at Magnolia Jr. High which is located at 22431 Kingston Lane, Grass Valley.  It is near Lake of the Pines. 

Friday - no games

Saturday - 3:00 and 5:00 in the main gym

Sunday - 12:00 in the small gym

Game updates

Just a quick update about the kids' sports activities in the next couple of weeks!

Adam has one more basketball game - Sat. 3/8 at 10:30 - that is different from the original schedule.  He will also be participating in a basketball tournament on 3/14, 3/15, and 3/16 at Bear River.  I will let you know more specifics when I get them.

Briana has her next volleyball tournament on Sun. 3/16 at the McClellan Convention Center located at 5411 Luce Ave. in Sacramento.  It is in the old McClellan base right behind where Bret used to work at Technicon and right next to the new JSA.  (FYI mom......Taylor will be playing at JSA that day - you can see both girls with one trip!!)  I'm assuming play will start around 8:30 again.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

This is the last weekend of soccer!!!  Both kids will play in the Commissioner's Cup this weekend.  Games are Saturday 12/7 and Sunday 12/8.  Adam will play at Cherry Island 2A at 10:00 and 1:30 both days.  Briana will play at River View Park at 10:00 and 1:15 both days.  It's going to be cold out there so bundle up if you come!!!

Adam joined the school band this year and is playing the clarinet.  There will be a district concert on Wednesday, December 18th at Golden Sierra at 6:30.  He will also be playing at the Sing Along at Northside on Friday, December 20th at 9:00. 

Hope to see you all soon! :)

Bragging

So the kids are off to a great start of the school year. Just wanted to share a few things that they are up to. 

Briana just got her first progress report. She has straight A's starting off her 8th grade year (well actually 4 A's and 2 A+'s!!!) while playing two different sports. She's playing competitive soccer in Auburn and had her first game yesterday. Her team came back to win it 2-1. She's also playing on her school volleyball team as one of their setters. Her team still needs a little work, but she's stepping up to be a great player!

Adam is really enjoying 4th grade so far. He is in a 4/5 combo class and just started a new activity this week - playing the clarinet!  He is so excited about it, although I may be shopping for a good pair of ear plugs soon. :)  He is also playing competitive soccer. They had their second game yesterday, and even though they did not win, they played much better than they did the previous week. Hopefully they continue to make improvements. 

It's been a great start to the 13-14 school year. Looking forward to what's to come!

Soccer schedules

Soccer season is starting today!!  Well, it is for Adam at least, Briana's game just got cancelled due to air quality.  Just when I thought the smoke was gone, it shows back up for their first games. :(

Trying to type out their schedules for the next 3 months seemed a bit tedious, so here are the links...

Briana is on the 49er Xtreme team - http://events.gotsport.com/events/schedule.aspx?EventID=33272&GroupID=297246&Gender=Girls&Age=13
Her home field is Railhead Park which is in Auburn.

Adam is on the GNSC Drillers team - http://events.gotsport.com/events/schedule.aspx?eventid=33272&FieldID=0&applicationID=1902812&action=Go

Hope these work for checking their schedules.  Let me know if you have any questions.  Hope to see you at a game or two! :)

Sunday - game at 8:00 at Bear River Upper and possible second game at 11:30, 12:45 or 2:00 (depending on how they do)

Saturday Adam and I will be off to Fan Fest at Candlestick so we won't be there that day, but we'll be there on Sunday.  Brie of course will be there both days! :)

Soccer is starting!

The kids have both moved up from rec to select soccer this year, so we have been busy with practices this summer.  They both have seeding tournaments this Saturday, July 27th to determine what level their teams are at, so if you are interested in coming out to see what they are doing here are their schedules!!

Adam plays at Mel Hamel Park in Roseville.  The address is
10080 Crocker Ranch Road.  He will be on field 1.  His games are 20 minutes each and start at 9:00, 11:00, 1:00, 3:00, and 4:00.  His team also has to referee in between those games at 9:30, 10:30, 12:30, 2:30, and 3:30.


Briana plays at the Woodland Community Center located at 2001 East Street in Woodland.  She will be on field E.  Her games are 25 minutes each, and she plays at 9:30, 11:00, 12:30, 2:00, and
3:00.  I'm not sure if she will have any other duties in between her games our not. 

Look forward to hopefully seeing some of you out there!!!
