Sound of Music


Last week Ryan bought a piano for us.  On his way to work I was talking to him and could hear piano music, sure enough 2-3 hours later he signed the papers on a piano.  He kept calling making sure it really was a good piano and that it had everything I wanted etc.  We had looked at pianos since last December, but kept putting off buying one.  Ryan finally took the plunge and just bought it.  It got delivered a week and a half ago on Tuesday and except for the picture of it on Ryan's phone that is the first time I saw it.  We are pretty excited about this new addition.  It is a really nice piano with great sound quality so I am sure it will get a lot of use over the years.  
     I am sure my mom is happy because that means less little kids coming for lessons at her house, she has been very nice to let me teach lessons there for the past 8 and 1/2 years.  It is crazy to think I have taught lessons that long!!! It has been fun playing it the past few days and it is great because Ryan has enjoyed playing it as well.  He is so thoughtful to put off the nice basketball hoop and other things he wanted to get the piano.  It is so fun because when he comes home some nights he will go in and play the piano which really impresses me since he taught himself on his mission!  I LOVE playing the piano so it is wonderful to have a piano here so I can go in and play if I want to.  I have become very rusty over the past few years since I haven't played as much, but unfortunately for anyone around, I love it even more.  Now I have no excuses!

That is so neat! I'm jealous :) I have become rusty too since I went off to college and then got married and NO PIANO! Some day....
But for now, i'll be happy for someone else getting a piano! :)
