Strumming My Heart Strings

Reese started in guitar lessons last weekend.  Today was her second lesson so this morning she grabbed her guitar to practice so that she could impress her teacher.  Talan saw her playing and because he wants to do and say everything she does he insisted on grabbing a guitar and joining her.  So the two of them had a little morning jam session:

 

 

I'm so excited for Reese.  She's doing really well with the lessons and seems to love playing.  She practices without being prompted and seems to be soaking it all in very easily.  I can't wait to hear her play a song she can sing along to.  At this rate it won't be long. 

So, this morning, Dennis the Menace struck again.  When Talan woke up this morning Reese and Kevin were at his door to greet him.  They opened the door and Reese said "Daddy, look how sweaty Talan is!".  Kevin looked over and low and behold, he was a shiny mess....but it wasn't sweat.  He had reached up into his top drawer and rubbed a half a container of Vaseline all over himself AND onto his carpet.  He is seriously a mess!  Tomorrow is going to be a tough day for little man.  Reese is going back to school.  Poor kid is going to be bored out of his mind.  I am definitely not as funny, energetic, or entertaining as she is.  I'm really excited for Reese.  2nd grade!!!!  Insanity.
