Got myself a piano for Christmas! Free from Facebook marketplace and had the movers pick it up then bring to our house this morning. I’m so out of practice. It’s probably been at least 15 years since I sat down and played. I fumbled through some Christmas songs today and the girls all hung around me singing. It’s so lovely having a piano in the house!

There have been some pianos for free that pop up now and then and I'm so very tempted to get one. I think W would love it. If I had the room I'd do it in a heartbeat. I hope you enjoy it!

That's awesome! We got a really nice, free piano off of Kijiji last year. MH and I don't play but L is taking lessons, and N will start next year. I love having a piano in the house.

W has been obsessed with music and musical instruments since she could show her interests. She has a little floor piano and she'll grab it and bring it over and bug me until I turn it on and put it down for her to dance and play on. And she absolutely loves her little xylophone

I think this was the most successful gift year yet. Or maybe C and M have just gotten to the perfect Christmas age. They are just slowly playing/reading/building everything while DH and I chill and drink coffee. It is lovely.

We had a really good Christmas here as well =) Kids opened things slowly and played with them as they opened. And I finally got to give my hubby the photo book with pictures of his grandparents that was supposed to be last years present. He legitimately cried. And when he showed it to his mom she cried too. It was a pretty low key Christmas, and I missed my family, but it was probably the best Christmas we've had
