Our new Piano


You can't tell, but the piano is playing by itself while Sarah pretends she's playing. Alan is showing off the cool headphones feature. That way I can play at any time and not disturb the house.

This is the Roloand Digital Grand model RG7. I can plug my laptop into it, and play on the piano, and it will notate what I play. It also is a player piano that has many different fun songs. We can plug a microphone into it and sing along with it too. It has alot of other features that I haven't discovered yet, but am excited to soon.
We got an awesome deal on it because a retailer/distributor bought 5 of them and then couldn't afford the payments on them, and so our music store bought them up for super cheap. We also an EXTRA $1,000 off of it for trading in our piano. I honestly never thought I'd have something like this.
And for those of you who are freaking out because it's white, and I have four kids, this was the only color there was. I wasn't going to pass up this deal just because of the color. It looks amazing anyway. I think it might look even better with finger prints. :)

Valentine's Day Suprises...

Tom suprised me with a fabulous breakfast in bed yesterday. He got up early to get it ready, took care of the kids so that I could sleep in. I didn't even realize he had done it, until he came in with a beautiful breakfast on a bamboo tray. He made pancakes with sliced strawberries and whipped cream on top, bacon cooked perfectly, eggs, and a cinnamon roll. He also got my favorite orange juice, and put a single red rose on the tray. It was delicious. I wanted to take a picture, but it looked so good that I ate it before I could. :)
Later that morning, I got out the balloon boquet and chocolates I got for him. I also got some balloons and choclates for the kids. They were so happy with their balloons that they did a balloon parade around the family room while still in their pajamas.

The biggest suprise of all was when Tom told me to go to the music store which was having a huge sale, and look around at the digital pianos to see if their were any of them within our price range. Yes, I already have a piano, but I need a digital piano that I can compose with, and so, he told me to see if I could trade our piano for one. Welll.... I found an awesome Digital Baby Grand piano that was 65% off.... and we bought it!! Woo hoo!! Happy Valentine's Day for me. It's being delivered tomorrow, so I'll take pictures of it for you all to see.

The Spaghetti Bandit


While I was putting Kaitlyn down for her afternoon nap, William saw that his sister's spaghetti lunch was still on the table. I came out of the bedroom and saw that William the Conquerer had struck again. He does a pretty good job of weilding that fork doesn't he?
