Jill's Favorite Gift


So it was my birthday on Thursday and Eric got me the most amazing gift! Yes, a guitar. I had mentioned a few months back how I would really enjoy learning to play. I love how you can take a guitar with you to places when you wouldn't always have a piano. I now own an absolutely beautiful guitar. I have spent the last few days learning to play and wow, do my fingers hurt. I have found the guitar to be similar enough to the piano that I did get an advantage. I have also had fun playing some songs in the primary book. The one that I have found to be the easiest is Book of Mormon Stories. Poor Eric has had to sit and listen to me play this one over and over til he's practically singing it in his sleep. Its a lot of fun though and I can't wait til I can start remembering chords without a chart for reference.

    Oh baby I'm such a bad friend! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, I love your guitar I had no idea you've wanted to learn to play it! Thats neat!

    No, its way to big. And as I keep trying to explain to Eric we can only take what we need so that we can bring gifts. He's really disappointed he won't be able to bring four pairs of shoes.

    Eric wants to bring four pair of shoes? Is he a girl or what? Yes, the gifts are more important than shoes any day.

    Happy Birthday Jill, can't wait for you to come out so we can blow your Birthday $$$.
