A 6 year old with a love for music!

During Mike's remote tour to Korea, he had sent home some chopsticks for the kids to eat their Ramen noodles. Well...instead of eating food, Dallin used them as drumsticks and banged on every thing and anything. Mike recognized this little infatuation with Dallin and his drumming and decided to buy him a drumset. We had priced them out but were leary of buying a $300-$500 drumset for the little dude not knowing if he would even enjoy them. A few months ago Mike and I were walking through the BX and found a little set for around $100. He HAD to get it for him. So, we brought it home, Mike set it up and showed Dallin how to keep a simple beat. From that night on, Dallin just beat on the drums randomley until just a few weeks ago. We noticed that he was actually keeping beat and making up new little jam sessions here and there. O.k...enough from me and check out our little drummer dude!

I am impressed! Caleb giggled when I showed it to him and said..."he's gonna be an awesome drummer."
Way to go Dallin.

Put Mike on his bass and your girls now have a rhythm section. The possibilities are endless . . .
