Jolly old Saint Nicholas

Last year (this time) when I bought the keyboard I had hoped for a house full of beautiful background music.  This year the older boys started piano lessons.  And the house is filled with kids practicing   In all different sounds.  You would not believe the options you can have for sounds on a keyboard we are constantly in a car wreck while being bombed and watching fireworks at the ballgame, not quite my vision.  Wow.

Faith is the one who probably plays the most.



The headphones are because dad is sleeping.



Gregory has been doing remarkable.  He is picking it up rather well and has completed his first book.  Tomorrow at the Christmas tea he will be playing Jolly Old Saint Nicholas for the school and their families.  I can't wait to see him I hope he does well.  I wish he would practice a little more.  Maybe I am more nervous than him.  He is not at all.  We will see tomorrow.



He just reminded me to bring my camera but use no flash photography?  My super  star.



I could not talk him into a haircut but am trying on talking him into a tie.  He will look SO cute!  But I can't tell him that or it will be a definite no go.

With tomorrow being the big day do you think my man is practicing?

Nope.  Watching Charlie Brown again.



But they do have a lot of piano playing so maybe he is learning by osmosis?  Maybe?



Well if he gets cold feet or changes his mind at least Faith will be waiting in the wings.



We are trying to teach her just one finger right now.
