Time to tickle the ivory's!

My great-grandmother's antique piano made the trek down from Utah this past weekend to find it's new home with the Hinckley's. Isn't it beauty? 80 years old and 800 lbs! (Thanks Rachel and Randy for taking such good care of it...after seeing you drive over those Arizona bumps I'm suprised it made it down in one piece...ha! ha!)

30 minutes a day/7 days a week seemed like torture. Notice the scratches...I did that...PURPOSEFULLY! Not proud. Engraving evidence that I was forced to sit there for 10 years. I can now excercise more patience when my own take a black marker to every surface of my house (I will next time anyway).

One lump or two?

This weekend I attended the most lovely and sophisticated baby shower I've ever been to.
A real live afternoon tea party (no I didn't have any...I knew you were wondering). There were no GUESS-THE-MELTED-CANDY BAR-IN-THE-DIAPER type games at this soiree.
Ladies came dressed in their lovliest attire. Pinky fingers pointed north as the Ladies sipped from their tea cups and conversed. There were three tiered stands of cucumber finger sandwiches, mini lemmon cakes, and crumpets as far as the eye could see. My diet went out the window the minute I stepped foot in my neighbor's decked out home. We all received the prettiest take-home/thank you gift...

A bird feeder!

(Lindsay, you really are the hostess with the mostess!)

Nautical or Aeronautics?

I was going for Nautical. Like those big numbers on sails? Jake thinks it looks like an airplane hanger. Regardless, IT'S STAYING! Too much sweat and tears to care at this point. Since the boys will be sharing a room the "4" represents 2004 when "M" was born and the "7" represents 2007 when "N" was born.
