Guitar hero
I think I mentioned the other day that Nick has been teaching himself how to play the guitar. To help him along, my folks bought him a beautiful acoustic Fender guitar for Christmas. This was apparently a popular gift, because when they ordered it well before Christmas, it was already on back order until late January.
The guitar arrived late last week, and our man was ready to rock:
He can sling it over his shoulder, too:
You can see my keyboard in the background; we sat in my office the night he got the guitar and played the chorus of the "Ode to Joy" together. I look forward to a day when we can play something a little more ambitious. Maria wants in on the action, too - she is learning "Simple Gifts" on her recorder and wants us to play as a trio. If Anna and Chelsea will sing with us, we'll have a full family band going!
