Music has certainly changed

Cec gave his dad's guitar to Lexie as she's been playing an acoustic guitar.  A string broke, surprise, we figure it's 80 years old.  We took it into Tom Lee Music to get it restrung and found the bridge was ready to explode and it was a danger to play!  So we looked at new guitars and then ended up in the piano section.  

We bought a new piano!  It's an digital piano but has wooden keys with the 52 moving parts on each key.  It has Bluetooth so you can attach your iPad and it's way more than a regular upright piano.  You can use head phones and it even has a built in metronome!  It's on order and will be here in three to six months.  It's quite the instrument and if you want to see what it does:
