I was listening to Lucie Silvas on the way home from work today, the windows open as I was driving...the spring air is so amazing!!

This is one of Lucie's songs that I hadn't heard before until I looked her up on YouTube, but it's now one of my favorites. She's got an amazing voice and mixed with Reamonn, it's even better. The video is a bit weird, but the song is great. Enjoy!

Our family is very musical. I, unfortunately, thought I was "too cool" for piano lessons at the age of 13 and decided against them. Despite my bad example, three of my siblings have started or continued to take lessons and are constantly blowing me away with their talent. One of them, my 13 year old sister, wrote a song last year that she (unwillingly) played for me. She's shy and doesn't like to be the center of attention. As she started to play her song I started to cry. She honestly has a talent beyond her 13 years, beauty of the song was amazing. Of course she was embarrassed by my tears but I didn't care, I was so proud of her!

Here are some other amazing bits of talent from Etsy. Each one of them captures the beauty and strength of the instrument. Enjoy!
