So, how was your Christmas? Did you get any new ukuleles or give them out as presents?
I don't want to be spoiling anything so I'll just say that with the assistance of my dear friend the Estonian uke elf Marihhen, I managed to send out two new Dolphins to a couple of beginners between ages 7 and 9. The seven-year-old has been too busy with all the electronic stuff he got this year to really get into ukeing but I did get to try out the new uke a couple of days ago when I visited and it was so fun to see literally everyone's faces light up when I strummed a little. The nine-year-old hasn't received Santa's delivery yet since she was away from home at grandma's this year but I'll report back to you what she thought of her present when she gets it.
No new ukes for me or hubby this Christmas. I've managed to drive my UAS away for a while after acquiring three ukes in six months but you never know... We've both been playing actively pretty much every day (not so many Xmas songs though) and I know next time it is husband's turn to get a new one.
Hope you've all had a great Christmas and wishing you all a Happy New Year 2012!!
