Piano Lessons-
I really didn't want to do piano with the kids if it was going to be a battle everyday. I've met countless adults who HATED piano lessons and most of them quit before they ever enjoyed it. My friend Kim Ellsworth and her mom own this great music and dance studio- La Musique. My kids love piano! They go for a hour and spent time on the piano, time composing, listening to classical music and music theory. Trake and Brynly are both in the same class too, making it even easier on me. They have a young guy teaching them, Brynly has a little crush and Trake thinks hes cool. We're going to try and get the kids a digital piano for Christmas but they are about $1200. So grandpa and grandmas if you send $ we'll put it towards this! No I can't play the piano but the kids are teaching me. Eric just plays by ear. It's fun for all of us though. I'm putting a link to the schools website, if you sign up, put me as a referral! Pianos are expensive and I can use all the free months I can get!
Lets see can I advertise for anyone else.....Treehouse Montessori preschool, they teach your kids to read AND cook AND clean , a bunch of other things too, but those are my favorite.
Mountainside Fitness, my employer but it really is the best gym around. I've worked at a TON of gyms and resorts and they pay me the best and have the best childcare around.
Garn ~and ~Mason ~Orthodontics- Poor Trake is hating his headgear so much but the drs. are great and are putting him the quickest route they can to straight teeth. My pediatric dentist said he'd only recommend 2 orthos in the whole valley and Mason was one of them. Especially for a eight year old. (I think we get movie tickets if we're a referral, better than nothing)
If you read through my blog I've got details on more like Pied Piper Photography and Desert Dolphins Synchro. OK I'm done.

How much are your piano lessons a month for each kid? I looked at their website but couldn't find prices anywhere.

They figure it out for the whole year.
So when there are holidays they won't charge you, etc. So I'm paying $132 for both kids one hour a week. I didn't get a discount for 2 so split that in half. They go for a hour and they have one sat class a month. I figured it was about the same as half hour private lessons would run($20?) and they are getting more.
