Wordless Wednesday- Look what Great-Grandma gave me!

My husband’s grandmother passed away in August. She was so dear to our family!  Last week, we found out that she wanted us to have her piano so my daughter could grow-up with music. We loved her so much and we are so glad have this wonderful piano in our home now. You are missed Grandma.

    A wonderful gift from great grandma. Every time you guys hear the piano, you will think of her. Hayls will probably grow up associating the piano with her great grandma, how wonderful!

    I always wanted a piano as a little girl. I think I still wouldn't mind having one, as long as someone taught me how to play.
