Sunday

I can't imagine living in a house without instruments. I say this with full knowledge of my lack of musical abilities. I can't sing or play an instrument. I can drum...but even then I have rather limited skills. My lack of skills doesn't stop me. I still sing....

Kevin can play any instrument. We house enough instruments for an orchestra. We do. We have a violin, a french horn, a full drum set, a mandolin, a ukelele, a clarinet, lots of guitars, a keyboard...various other drums...I am sure I am missing a few instruments. Anyway, you get the idea. Kevin is self taught. I admire that skill. I wish I had it. I enjoy listening to him play.


Mimi jamming to some of Kevin's music.

Our plum tree isn't doing well. We thought we were going to get a good crop, but for whatever reason the tree is ejecting plums faster than we can pick them up.
Sad. I love plums. :(

I have plans for these....
carrots!

tomatoes!

green peppers!

Have a good week!

Jake just started his clarinet lessons this week. He's loving it and I'm so excited for him! I played the flute and piano. My husband plays the guitar really well and Henry jams out on the keyboard:) I guess we just need a bus and we could all go on the road:) Happy week to you Karen!! Thanks for the sweet words about my new paintings:) xox

I think it's great you guys keep instruments in your house. I know my kids enjoy playing them when we visit
