Riley at the Piano
The family went to a ward Eagle Court of Honor for a neighbor, Scott Libutti. It was a great court of honor for him. Riley and a couple of scouts were able to do the flag ceremony. After the 40 minute presentation, then the refreshments. Riley decided that since nobody was at the piano any more that he would play his rendition of the "Pink Panther Theme." All the younger boys flocked to the piano and watched and laughed while he played. He also has the "Ukranian Bell" christmas song memorized, so he played that too. Riley has been in the Choir class at Dixon and they have Talent Days at school. He decided that he wanted to play the "Pink Panther Theme" for the class. We thought that was great, but he didn't know how to play it. The day before he was to perform the piece, he learned it and memorized it. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES WE HAVE HEARD IT AT HOME???? Some of the parents of the boys were praising him for his piano playing. They told me, "the piano lessons paid off." He isn't taking piano lessons anymore. He only know the two songs. Anyway, the boys thought it was great and they all came and joined him by the piano.
