Dance to the beat ...

Our grand-daughter playing the drums.

This is not the best of photographs, it was taken on a mobile phone, but I just had to share it. So much fun, so much enjoyment ... although I think her Dad was keeping a close eye just in case, she damaged his drum kit! LOL!

Music runs in the family. Her Great-Grandad played drums in a marching band. Her Grandad (Eddie) played drums in bands for many years. Her Grandma (me) played drums in a marching band. Her Dad plays drums in a band.

Come on Grandma - sing along as I play. Now drumming is one thing, but singing and me is not a good mix, but she always tells me I sound good! I love her to bits ...

Earplugs anybody?

All the best Jan

Awww, what a beautiful smile. Music is a wonderful thing for children to get involved in and as it seems to run in your family, I'm sure the grandchildren will follow suit.

I play piano, but I've always had a yen to play drums. What a cutie your granddaughter is.

How sweet! It's great to see adults encouraging the young ones with music. They need to experiment with sound to find their own voice. It's part of who they are.

Alicia said...

So cute! Glad she has the love of music and obviously drums. I wish I could play. I took piano lessons but never could learn to read music.

I was never one for learning how to play music, but some are born for it

So cute and happy Jan.
I've also got a very musical family although I don't play any instruments, but I enjoy singing along...

I was never in the bands, I was always in the choir. From 8th grade through 12, I was in the school choir. It was fun. She is adorable.

Aww, what a cutie pie! She looks like she is really enjoying herself. Music does run in the blood- maybe she will be a drummer also.

Adorable! Look at that smile of joy. Hugs to her and to you from CO.
