Go Tiler!!! # 7

The fact that Tiler is the best looking kid on the team is enough to
make any grandmother proud but he is also a very good player.
He is always right in the middle of the action. He is fast and smart.
Doesn't this just sound like a grandma.

He always has his eye on the ball and today he scored the
winning goal for his team.
We are so very proud of him!!

My new toy.

This is my new Juki Serger
I love it!!!!
I have always loved what a serger could do but was
afraid of start the journey.
People would tell me they are very hard to thread, that they are very
complicated and that projects are very limited on them.
Not to mention the cost.
After hemming the ruffles for this bag on a borrowed serger I was
convinced. They are worth every penny you pay and every minute
you spend learning how to operate them. I took a one hour lesson
and I am good to go!!!!

So now I am all into ruffles and made this pillow out of some
scrap fabric I had.

Just another beautiful day in Arizona.

It was even prettier in person. I took this picture as I was leaving
Tiler's soccer game today.

Tiler's Soccer Game

Soccer is my favorite sport that Tiler plays
and I am so glad I could make the game today.
It was a beautiful day, 74 degrees, so I
drove to Scottsdale to watch him score the only point
for his team. They lost 2-1 but I really enjoyed it anyway.
