Christmas in March!

That is right, Kaiya got a late Christmas present today. The gift wasn't late, it was a gift card to Toys R Us from Great Uncle Cory, he gives all the "greats" one each year! The lucky Utah "greats" usually take him along for the shopping trip. Kaiya on the other hand isn't so lucky! We usually have to strike out on our own and then send pictures of the treasure purchased!

Well, today was one of those let's get IMPORTANT things taken care of days! And so I asked if she wanted to go for the THIRD TIME (yes, this was her 3rd trip to try to spend this card) to TOYS R US! She of course wanted too! Off we go to Toy R Us, and we spent the following two hours wandering around the store . . . she would stop and say, "I want this!" My response would be, "Let's go look at the rest of the store and if you still want that we will come back and get it!" Finally, we are done with walking the entire store and saying "I want this." She has decided, she wants the piano . . . to her a piano, to the rest of the world a keyboard!! So, we pick out the keyboard she wants, she heads to the cashier, give her the gift card and off we go with a brand new keyboard with stand!

She was so excited!!! Thank you Uncle Cory for knowing just how to make your greats day!!



Did I mention it has a working microphone?? So, I got a FABULOUS performance after we got it put together!!!

Good choice! I hope she really does learn to play piano :D that is such a cool toy, always a good thing to do when you run out of other ideas (a piano is timeless).
