On the Twelfth Day of Christmas My Family Gave to Me…

Instruments!

Were a family band, and a rather big family, so we already own: a piano, a cocktail drum set, three trombones, three or four trumpets, two alto saxophones, a tenor saxophone, three clarinets, multiple woodblocks, a glockenspiel (great name, huh?), harmonicas galore, a coronet, and an upright bass.  Despite the vastness of our instrument collection, the presents we opened today were all different and all instruments we didn’t already own!

From left to right: ukulele, thunder tube, double mijwiz, pan flute, thumb piano, bird whistle, frog tone block, ocarina, slide whistle, and xylophone.

Truly an impressive feat.  The instruments were received with much excitement and rambunctious noise.  The instruments don’t really belong to any member of the family, instead, they all belong to everyone.
