Words can't express how proud I am of all these kiddos...(plus Sarah, we missed you) We are all here to celebrate the graduation of our nephew, Brennan Taylor from the United States Air Force Academy. It was an awe inspiring experience from the formal entry to the commencement speech by our United States President and finally by the amazing fly over and air show by the Thunderbirds. Quite a day! #niecesandnephews #usafa #thunderbirds #worththesunburn (at United States Air Force Academy: Falcon Stadium)

Time-there never seems to be enough of it-but when I find it sitting right here at my piano for an hour absorbed in classical music-I am transformed. I am calm, I am refreshed and I am astonished at the fact that I can still sit down and play this partially from memory. I often think about, but don't often express, my sincere gratitude to my amazing piano teacher Mary Ruth Boone-and my parents for encouraging my desire and talent. As an adult I'm so thankful to have this creative outlet. I had no idea how valuable the ability to play really would be when I was banging out those scales and fretting over every wrong note 25 years ago. If you play-you know, playing is the best therapy, if you know a child taking lessons-keep encouraging them to stick with it-it's something nobody can ever take away. #pianolessons #musicistherapy #kurzweil #schubert #worthit #ebonyandivory #playforjoy #thanksmrsboone (at Dexter, Missouri)
