My days as a "Soccer Mom"

are DONE! Grant's team lost in the State Championship tournament on Tuesday night in a driving rainstorm. They gave it there all and played a great game. Unfortunately when it comes to tournaments such as this if you are not the Champions your season ends on a losing note.They will just have to settle for knowing that they were one of the top 16 teams in the state this year!

This is a photo that ran in the local paper recounting the game (Grant consoling a teammate):




Now to brag! We found out today that Grant was named to the 2nd team All Narrows League! This is quite an honor considering the number of amazing player in their league. Of course I might be biased but I think he is an awesome goalkeeper

Green Monkeys are complete!


I absolutely love these socks made from the Monkey pattern by Cookie A. These socks fit me perfectly. I made the first sock while on the airplane to and from Kauai and slowly worked on the second one in my 'spare' time.

Senior Night

Senior activities have started.....Last night the senior soccer players were honored before their last home game.

Finally Finished!


Yay! Finally finished these socks. The pattern was a little vague so I ended up having to rip and redo several times, but I'm pleased to say they are done after three months........ OK, so I did put them down for awhile and did other projects to give my brain some recovery time.;-)

I've been tagged by my friend Jayne.

The tag how-to...
Go to the photos folder on your computer.
Go to the seventh folder of photos.
Go to the seventh photo.
Put the seventh photo on your blog along with a description.
Invite seven friends to join.

This is a photos of my second son taken last September playing goalie during a select soccer game. It was taken the week before he broke his arm making a save. Needless to say his season was cut short.

It appears that the people I was going to invite to join have already been tagged so I will invite whomever wants to join the fun to do so. :D
