Mister Maestro

A few weeks ago we took a trip up to Wisconsin to visit my family. As always, we took plenty of pictures.

In addition to just seeing family, we stopped into a friend's house too. There, we met Cailin's new little girl, Amalia. It's quite a realization to see a newborn and remember what is was like and how things change so very much in only one year.

We also went to the Vilas Park zoo. Madison has kept the park small and can then keep admission free. I like the zoo and though it doesn't have much, they have been able to modernize in stages to have some very neat exhibits like the otter cage.

Finn got to play on his great-grandparents' piano. He really seems to like it. I've stitched together the videos we took so you can see his entire repertoire. He plays one handed so he can hold his practice golfball at all times.

Man, this is a great Rowan nail-cutting video – he sits still through the whole thing. I'm sure that's why you posted it...

Every time grandma says "Yay!" halfway through, I think it's Beach. Maybe because they're related?

Good job on the piano, Finn!

Using videos as a distraction for nail cutting? Genius. I've been relying on the "Where is Thumbkin?" song. Doesn't work so well, which is why Finn usually has only one hand's nails at the correct length.
