Piano!

We finally got a piano, AND managed to get it in the house in one piece. It wouldn't have been possible without the invaluable help from Jim & Kris (Dad and Mom #2!), Dave & Katie, Aaron & Cassie, and Laura & Jason. OH and all the dogs that come with each family. :) There were many suspenseful minutes of talking out strategies. The men devised a brilliant plan to get the piano over the threshold without losing limbs or extremities, or scratching the wood floor. The ladies cheered the men on, entertained the puppies and held the doors open, the essential parts of the plan! Here is the proof:






Here is the finished product... the piano is a very old player piano, made by Hardman & Peck in the early 1900's from what I understand. We're getting it tuned this weekend, although the sound isn't horrible. I've enjoyed playing it already! Hmm.. I need to hang that picture. :p






For those of you who have not seen pictures of our house yet, I will post them in the next day or so.
