"That is wonderful news, Evie!" Lisa exclaimed.
The next day at the music store, Evie picked out a beautiful cherry wood violin.
"I'm going to be a fiddler," Evie announced. "just like Jason and Matt!"
Risa was more than a bit confused.
"I thought Matt played the bass like me." Risa said to Evie.
"He does," Evie answered Risa. "but he can also play the fiddle, Jason also likes bluegrass music, so, he's also a fiddler and banjo player."
