Girls with Guitars

One of my new favorite pictures...I have not played the guitar in a very, very long time. I got my first guitar for Christmas when I was in 9th grade. I loved it. I was never wonderful at playing the guitar, but it was something I really enjoyed. I started playing a ton in college...but it seems like everyone in college plays the guitar. I would very rarely play in front of an audience...it was more something I just enjoyed doing by myself. When Andy and I got married, he presented me with this beautiful purple guitar...I love it so much. It deserves to be played more often than I am doing right now. I brought it out the other day while Blake and I were stuck in the house and Blake loved it. She keeps asking me to play it. This morning, she wanted the guitar to sit in her lap...oh the smiles on her face when I let her hold it.

Ames I am so sad I did not think of those pictures...It is a shame I can't find them anywhere.

This reminds me of you, me, Sarah and Betsey! DUDES WITH GUITARS for Good Times at APU! I was just thinking of you, Brit and wanted to see how the adoption process was going! Brecken is absolutely gorgeous and little Blakely is growing up so fast! Looks like you are all doing well! Take care!! :)
