McComb Family

Adam lost his two bottom teeth months ago and since then there hasn't been much action on the loose tooth front.  The top two are kind of wiggly but are certainly not ready to come out yet.


One of the bottom ones next to his permanent teeth was starting to get wiggly recently, and he's been working it.  He ate an apple the other day which helped it right along, and today he pulled it out by himself. 


By the looks of the root on that thing, I can tell why my kids' teeth take so long to fall out.  Goodness!!!

Briana had her first volleyball scrimmage this week and her team did really well for their first experience.  They played the other West Slope team (13s) and learned what it will be like in a real tournament.  They had to rotate, sub, learn a cheer.....you know, all the important stuff!!  Now if they could just get a few more of their serves over the net, they'd be set!

This week they will learn to keep score and watch the lines, because that's what they will be expected to do in their tournaments.  Speaking of which, the first one will be on the 27th at Jackson Sports Academy.  It is located at 5237 Walnut Avenue in Sacramento.  I don't have specifics yet, but I do know they will play in the morning.  I'll let you know when I hear more.

Not sure how we're going to work this, but on that same day the kids also have their first tennis match.  Obviously Brie won't make it, but hopefully Adam will.  I believe that will be at the Auburn Racquet Club at 10:30. 

So, if you are looking for something to do in two weeks, there will be plenty of sporting events to go around!!!  Hope to see you there. :)

Brie took a few lessons last year somewhere else, but this was Adam's first attempt. Both kids have been doing really well and have moved up levels already. They are so excited by that!!!

Two of their lessons have been cancelled because of rain so today was a make-up day. They had a parent-child tournament!! Poor Adam got saddled with me most of the time, but he still had fun. :) It will be fun to go out as a family and practice now!!

Here they are before warm-ups this morning.

I know I haven't put any pictures of the pool project on here and people keep asking me for them -- so, they are now on Facebook if you want to see them.  Blogger and photos doesn't always work for me, so I decided to go the easier route.  Hop on over there if you haven't already!!! :)

Check out this awesome wreath Adam made at school!! He says it was a lot of hard work to make, but it turned out beautifully. Nice job! And it adds a very festive touch to our closet door.

I've added a few more of Barb's photos, so be sure to go back and look at the latest submissions!!  She's almost all the way caught up now!

This is the last day!!!  We made it through a month of photos! :)

I actually took this shot on the first day, but decided to save it for the last day because it shows what I've looked like for the last month. ;)

Jeni and I have decided we'd like to do this again in the spring so hopefully we can get a few more of you to join us the next time.  It's lots of fun and really makes you think about how and when to take photos. :)

This isn't the best time of year to get shots of flowers so I went back into my old pictures and found some that I liked.  Of course, I couldn't pick just one so here are some of my favorites!! :)

(Okay, I may have gotten a little carried away!!)

Yesterday I left my house at 7:30 in the morning and didn't get home until almost 11:00 last night so I didn't get a chance to post yesterday's challenge.

Here it is:
