PIANO

We are so excited to get a piano!! A year ago my mom's house burned down in Ephraim. It was considered a total lost by all of the smoke and fire damage. They were able to save valuables such as pictures and a few other things. They had good insurance that replaced their furniture including their piano. During the summer a piano technician (Jim Busby) contacted my Mom about trying to salvage the piano. He had a friend in Washington that did a similar thing, so he and his wife wanted to give it a try. Turns out it is a lot more work than he really would like because he is very busy. Mr. Busby said because it is YAMAHA he felt it would be worth the effort and it was! Eventually it may need the base strings replaced but to me it is absolutely amazing he was able to get it to look and sound as good as it does!! Mr. Busby is such a great guy, Matt actually took guitar from him at Snow College. So becuase my Mom had already purchased a new piano she said if we paid for the repair we could have it, which ended up being only $400. Which is absolutely an amazing price to have a piano. I have been really wanting to get Caleb started in piano and there is no way we could have afforded a piano at this stage in our lives. It has been such a special little blessing. The piano also has special sentimental meaning for me because my Dad really loved to play the piano and I can remember him playing this piano, one of the few memories I have of him, being that I was seven years old when he passed away.

A very big thank you goes out to Matt's Dad, Mike and Trevor who helped us move it to our home we could not have done it without them. We could not be happier...
