This is how my Mother's Day went...
Kate making sure there is NO peeking going on...
Then.... SURPRISE!! Holy Cow, are you serious?
Let me take a closer look at this gem.
Definately a keeper!
Complete with amp, mic, and music stand, it will no longer be Angie "Unplugged"! How did I get so lucky?
And since stew tastes even better the second day....
I had a surprise visit from my Grandma and Grandpa Herbst today! I can't tell you how excited I was to open the door and see those two standing there.
My Grandpa is a master guitar player. I remember sitting for hours when I was a kid listening to he and my dad play together. When I was about 15 I decided I wanted to learn to play like that and so it began. I wasn't the only one with a desire to learn to play. I also have a dad, a brother, 3 cousins and an aunt that all play as well. All because of this guy. What a legacy my grandpa has left! I am nowhere near as good a player as he is, but I hope someday I will be. It was such a treat today to be able to sit and watch him strum away on my new Mother's Day present. Then I got my old trusty out and we had a little jam session. So now, for your viewing pleasure, (well, at least mine) is my grandpa and I playing a song that has been sung in my family ever since I can remember. It's called "Pearly Shells". (this is my first time uploading my own videos, so I hope it works)

Hi Angie! I watched this video with tears in my eyes. That is a song I have sung with Dad for years. Now to see the next generation singin it with him is so cool. He has made a legacy for us to follow. Loved it. You made my day.
