To begin the evening, Andy took Laura to Bass Pro Shops to buy her birthday present from us. She has been wanting a toy camping set that included a car, four wheeler, tent, food, campfire, and people. She was so excited to show it to me and she started playing with it right away. After dinner, Uncle B, Aunt Rachel, and Alia came over for a short visit. They brought along birthday presents for the kids. John was very excited about the Transformer that he received. Laura was literally over the moon about the Fife and sheet music that she received. She told Aunt Rachel that she wanted an instrument and was so excited to receive one. At least once she made a little bit of sound so I think she will be playing the Fife before long. Not sure about having a flute player in my household (trumpet, saxophone, or clarinet anyone?!?), but I *guess* I can let that slide!
