First timer

Surprise - a post!!! :)

I've been awful about keeping my blog undated.  It can be so frustrating at times, I just avoid it at all costs!  But I thought I'd throw you all off guard a little bit and actually post something - ha ha!!

My brother got to come out for a very short but sweet visit.  We were sad about the reason but happy he got to come.

As he's never seen our pool before, the kids introduced it to him.  And any proper introduction includes a jump off the waterfall.  Luckily the solar has been running for a couple of weeks now so the pool temperature was about 80.  He didn't have to join the Polar Club (this time!!)

This was my favorite of the three of them.....

Looking forward to more of this.....hurry up summer, we're ready for you!!!

New date for Soccerfest

Due to the amount of rain we have received, and most likely will continue to receive tomorrow, Adam's Soccerfest has been cancelled for tomorrow.  It will be reschedule for next Saturday, 12/8.  Times will be posted early next week.  I will let you know when I find out!

Also, Briana has three more soccer games until her season is over.  They are all at EV Cain.  The time stated on the schedule was 4:00, but we have received texts the past couple of games that they wwould be starting at 3:45.  I'm assuming the rest will be as well.  Even starting at 3:45 on Tuesday, the end of the game was played in darkness!!  Crazy!!!

Brie - All Star Soccer

Oh geez, just when I thought it couldn't get any busier it has!! :)  Besides Brie's school soccer games this week, she is also starting All Star practice (4 days this week!) and just made the club volleyball team yesterday.  All Stars games will be played at Pleasant Valley School (lucky you mom and dad!) this Sunday, 11/18, at 9:50, 12:30, and 3:10. 

Brie - school soccer schedule

Here is Brie's school soccer schedule.  Instead of trying to retype it all, I just copied and pasted! :)  She is on the EV Cain Claws team.  All games start at 4:00 unless otherwise noted.  Field locations are listed at the bottom.  Let me know if you have any questions!!

All Star games for Adam

I now have the schedule for Adam's All Star games.  He will play on Sunday, November 11th at 8:00 (field 1), 10:20 (field 1), and 12:40 (field 2).  He just finished his season yesterday, and his team was undefeated.  Pretty impressive!!

Briana just found out that she made All Stars as well.  Yay!!  She also had her first school soccer game on Thursday and her team won 7-0.  She so badly wanted to score a goal, but her coach told them no more goals! :)  Her next game is Tuesday, but I still don't know when or where.  Hoping to get a schedule soon -- especially since the season has already started!!!

Soccer news

Some good news on the soccer front.....

Adam was chosen to be an alternate for the U10 All Star team this year.  Pretty good considering this is his first year in this age group and is one of the younger players!!  Gold Nugget soccer will be hosting it this year, so the games will either be played at the District Field in Georgetown or in Lotus (the site is still undecided).  They will play Sunday, November 11th if you can make it.  He will also still play in the tournament on December 1st as well.

Briana made the soccer team for EV Cain!  Ninety girls came out to fill 40 positions, so she really had to prove herself (especially considering she's one of the smallest ones!!).  I don't know when her games will be, but I will pass info on when I get it.

Great job to my two little soccer players this week!!! :)

Brie's at camp!!!

We dropped Briana off yesterday at camp!  This is her first time going away to camp so it was pretty exciting!!  She will be gone until Saturday, so if anyone wants to send her a letter in the next couple of days, I'm sure she'd really appreciate hearing from home!!

You can write her at:
Sugarloaf Fine Arts Camp
Briana McComb, Cabin G11
c/o Sly Park Center
5600 Sly Park Rd.
Pollock Pines, CA 95726

I'll be sure to post some pictures when she gets back!! :)
