Family Journal Jog

This past weekend the entire McCombs Family participated in the Reno Journal Jog. It was a lot of fun! Monte and I were the J team and we came in 9th of the husband and wife couples. Not to bad for a first running race for the both of us!
Here we are before the race! It was such a nice morning for a run! Oh yeah....the run was 4.8 miles of fun!?!?!?

Chanika walked the 4.8 mile route. She was walking fast too, because she wasn't too far behind those that ran! I think that she was the only pregnant person to do the race....look at that belly...I love talking to her baby and rubbing her belly. I hope Chanika doesn't mind!

After the run we all went to mom's house for a hot breakfast. Nothing like filling our bodies with greasy bacon and eggs after a nice long run!:) It was delicious!

Everyone that did the race in our family is in this picture except for mom. Sorry Mom!

The Great Reno Balloon Races

This past weekend was the Great Reno Balloon Races! We love this time of the year when we get to wake up and see tons of balloons right over our neighborhood!
I hope Del Taco appreciates this free advertisement!

Here we are right outside our house. What a view!!!

Tons more balloons!

We got lucky and got to go up in a balloon that landed right up the street from our house!

Wyatt wasn't too fond of the idea right at first...but was okay after the first minute or so.

There we go up.....up........up about 50 feet!

Wyatt loves the balloons better from a distance!

This was my absolute favorite balloon this year!! It stayed in the park and didn't go far off the ground....just enough to give rides to kids.

"Gimme a kiss baby!"
