For whatever reason I thought I had already shared with you all what my husband suprised me with this past christmas?!!?! He got me an upright bass!! It is gorgeous! I have wanted one for aVERY long time.... At first, some 10 years ago, I told him they are a gorgeous instrument, I'd love to have it in the corner of a room as a piece of ART!!! of course that's not realistic.....so, ya know, we didn't get one!
Last may, 2009...we went to a bluegrass festival with his family, and His uncle and I were just chatting away and My husband started to play a tune and his uncle joined in, I said, ok, someone tell me what to do on the Bass, and I'll play this one....I LOVED IT INSTANTLY!!...Apparently my husband was so impressed at how fast I picked it up, he purchased this bass the weekend we got home!!! So on christmas morning, I WAS IN SHOCK!!!!!!!!!!!! It is such a cool thing that he thought so much of how well I did. Makes it such a special gift....one that brings us even closer than we are. We play music together, practice together, and enjoy it so much!!!
The other night, we had some friends over and before we went out, we decided to play a few tunes, my first time playing in front of people besides him, and my father in law, who also teaches me when we are together....I HAD A BLAST!!!!!!! So, the pic you see above, that is my first pic playing! I'M SO PROUD!!! Ok....more to come, tomorow! I'm a bloggin' fool tonight!!!
Good night! FOR REAL!
