Our Piano...home sweet home

We have been talking about getting a piano for a few months now, however, what sealed the deal was hearing Alexander play "Mary had a little Lamb" thanks to cousin Ben (age 5) who taught him. We found the piano on Craig's list and bought it within the hour because it was only $150 (a great deal). Of course, after much frustration and an arguement we paid another $150 to have it delivered, then again it did save our marriage. :) j/k

So here is our new found joy and we all love taking turns at it. Next up is piano lessons for Alexander and maybe a refresher course for Mommy too!




Zac loves to show off all the tricks of the piano. It's a Gulbransen, built about 1940's


Such a great photo



Soon our little one will be playing Mozart...he is very talented like his Father. They have already figured out how to play the sound that Mario does when he dies in the Wii game. Yes, I know...true talent. (It get's a little annoying)





We had to move the room around to make sure the piano fit, but I think it looks good and we love the music in the house.

So when he becomes a world famous pianist you will remember it all started at my house :) No repayment necessary but gifts are nice :) Love the new piano and i'm glad to see that it gets used

Very nice. Maybe Alexander can play something at Jennifer's wedding.
