Two days ago Cliff and I were talking about how we would like to have a piano in the house. Our first question was real or electric...although there are sooooo many great things about electric pianos, we both thought a real piano was the way to go. And then, where to put the thing. The plan right now is to put it behind the couch when they come at the end of March. (that's a story all on its own!)
So yesterday I found this affordable little gem on craigslist and after Bernie left, Cliff went straight to Cedar Rapids to pick it up. We bought it from a lady who inherited it from her mom after she went into a nursing home. She was so nice, and I think it makes her happy that it will be loved by our little ones:)
The kids were in bed by the time Daddy got home, and Uncle Kyle and Holly came to help load the beast into the house. THANK YOU! These muscles of mine would never have been able to carry that thing ever in my life. When I was getting ready this morning, I heard the kids come upstairs and then a big "clunk." (the cover:) Then some curious fingers and giggles...followed by Silas in his crib who started saying really loudly "HUH?! HUH?! HUH?!" It was so cute, and the first of many memories to come with our new piano!
