And the winner is....

My friend Katie, who wins contests all the time, won an electric piano for Robert. It's great cuz now Robert doesn't have to go up to my Japanese friend's house to practice. What was the contest? Well, kids 8 an under called into the radio and sang a song. Katie's 4 year old daughter sang I Love Rock and Roll and won!!! We have a piano now. Too fun. Katie will also be teaching Sallie voice lessons..and both Sallie and Robert are taking speech from her as well. It's going to be a busy year.

I'm not blogging a lot. Truth is, this week has been pretty routine. Strange that this feels so much like home. When we got here two years ago I never thought it would be hard to think of things to blog about. I did chuckle on the way home from trying to buy a piano stand, though. I was casually waiting for the light to change. As I stared at the car in front me I realized that I was staring at a sunvisor spread across the back windshield. Yep. The funny thing was..it took me awhile to even register that it was there!! :) I sure enjoyed driving in Texas this summer. Ahhh, the good ol' days.

Ramadan ends next week. And we will be taking a week in Greece visiting friends. I will have lots to write about then. :)
