My New Toy (aka free piano!)

piano edit

Our wonderful neighbors (Really, we couldn't ask for better ones. They loan us yard tools and invite us over for meals and bring up our trash can every week.) gave us this lovely old upright piano! They bought a house in the neighborhood where he grew up and are starting a local ministry/outreach/revitalization project. The piano was in the house and they didn't have any need for it, so they offered it to us. And helped us move it!

The piano tuner is coming this week to make it sound pretty. And then I will start practicing - we'll see how much of it comes back. Mom always told me I'd be grateful for those years of piano lessons someday . . . looks like she was right. Again.

  1. So glad you have a new toy. You are about the get the best toy ever :) LOVE the new candlestick also. Looks great on the piano. Aren't you glad I saved all those piano books? You'll learn to love those three little words - Mom was right! Music to a mother's ears. :)
