My New Piano

On Thur night, this lovely gift arrived at my house. 
My wonderful parents-in-law shipped this beautiful instrument to me all the way from Colorado.  I cannot even begin to explain how excited I've been about having a paino to play again.  I began playing the piano when I was 8, hated it till sometime in high school, then it became one of my most favorite things.  Sadly, I haven't really played an actual piano since I was 18, more than once or twice while I was living in Charleston.  I had a keyboard in college, and played some, but nursing school did not accomodate for real piano playing and on one of my moves, my keyboard died, so it has been 3 years since I've really played.  Since the piano arrived, I haven't hardly been able to tear myself away from it.  Even after all the travelling across country, it sounds really good.  I can't wait to hear it after a proper tuning!  The first 2 songs I'm working on are Snow Patrol's Chasing Cars and am re-learning Moonlight Sonata. 
I am so incredibly thankful, and think that I have the best parents-in-law ever! I absolutely love this gift!
