They were great :)<br /><br />Regarding the link up, I obviously have the same problem. I usually manage to post my link when I get up for work on Thursday at 6:20am, but there are always lots on by then. Never mind though. I don't mind being well down the list. When I'm reading, I often start from the bottom and work my way up. I figure that the later links probably get less comments, so I'll start with them first. :)Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13357761230206692089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945084178682640148.post-15776414866159090392010-07-03T20:11:38.349+01:002010-07-03T20:11:38.349+01:00I think the xylophone is a child's toy that wi...I think the xylophone is a child's toy that will never go out of favor.

They always take me back to when my kids were small and now to when the Grands were small enough to play with them.<br /><br />I still have the same little Fisher Price one from many years ago and it always makes my heart smile when I hear someone plunking away on it!<br /><br />Thanks for the such a sweet post!<br /><br />It's always wonderful to see you here!<br /><br />A+Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462124067637610359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945084178682640148.post-836819703029463572010-07-01T22:33:38.464+01:002010-07-01T22:33:38.464+01:00I'll leave this message on Anna's, too. ...I'll leave this message on Anna's, too. Send me your link before you go to bed. I will post it for you when I make it live. I usually do it between 5 and 6 on Wednesday night. I am in Phoenix, AZ so right now we are on US MST time. We never change our times over.<br /><br />I am totally happy to do this for any out of country folks!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462124067637610359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945084178682640148.post-9726457584528582732010-07-01T22:23:07.230+01:002010-07-01T22:23:07.230+01:00I'm so glad that you chose the musical instrum...I'm so glad that you chose the musical instrument Xylophone as your X-word. Silly me, that I did not even think of it! My daughter Elisabet has a little xylophone that she just loves. I could have taken a picture of her playing it. (I think she has a genuine interest in music.)<br /><br />As to your comment about when exactly Mrs. Matlock 'opens the gate' for links on Thursdays, I have a similar problem. There is only a one-hour time-difference between UK-time and Central European time where I live here in Sweden.<br />I tried to link my post on Wednesday evening, only to find that it is not open under early Thursday morning, and when I woke up at 8 a.m. there were already 37 sites ahead of me! <br /><br />The time that Jenny gives as her opening time, 6:00 PM MST (which means 'Mountain Standard time' in Arizona) on Wednesday evening is GMT minus 7 hours, which means that it is one a.m. Thursday morning in the UK and two a.m. in Sweden where I live. If I sleep late on Thursday morning, I am one of the last to link up!<br /><br />Set your alarm-clock to one a.m. Thursday morning and then go back to bed after you have linked up! It will be two a.m. for me!<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Anna<br /><br /><a href="http://annasadornments.blogspot.com/2010/06/x-is-for-x-ray-and-x-marks-spot.html" rel="nofollow">Anna's X-words</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926688000745346961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945084178682640148.post-62436214516938763372010-07-01T21:58:06.040+01:002010-07-01T21:58:06.040+01:00I had a xylophone when I was small, it was red woo...I had a xylophone when I was small, it was red wood and metal.
