Best Yard Sale Find Ever!

Every Friday morning, my friend Nichole and I go yard saling. At about our third stop I spotted a sign advertising a FREE PIANO!!!!! I immediately told the lady that I wanted to see it. I wasn't sure that ry would want it so I called him and got his voice mail. After thinking about it for a sec I couldn't pass up the offer! He was going to have to want it! Just as I told the lady that I wanted it another lady was going to do the same. Good thing I was quick! Here she is in all of her beauty!!
I have since painted the bench the green paint that you see in the pic.

Usually Preston is at school when we go. He thought that it was the greatest thing. I let them get a toy and they get to play with the toys that are for sale while we look. That night we went for a walk and he spotted a garage that was set up for a sale for Sat. He got so excited and said "MOM, look a yard sale!" I told him that it was too late for one. He said, "Lets go look!!!". I am sure that ry would be pretty happy that I have taught our son that yard sales and great things!!
I had to add these pictures of pres playing football that night after Hailey and Tanner were in bed. I would say HIKE! and he would run into the living room and back to make a touch down. It was pretty cute. He had Ryan's cleats on but kept on slipping so he took them off!

Cute kid! And you are the third or fourth person I know who has has found pianos at garage sales for a steal! (Although FREE is by far the best deal so far.) Good find. Do you play piano? I remember when we were little and would try to play 'Les Misera' (or whatever it's called...:)) on the piano? Ah, good times...

So thrilled for you. I love my piano that I got FREE too. They are such big treasures. Also a great chance for you to change that wall you were wanting to! :)
