.: drum lesson numero uno…
Ryland has been able to pat, bang, clap, and move to the beat for quite some time now. In fact he breaks out in an adorable dance to anything resembling a beat. And… thanks to Mr. Michael Tull, he loves to bang on the Djembe and anything he can find that will make a similar sound. The rhythm has definately got him.
Recently he was watching the AM/SM Worship Team play and he fell in love with the trap set. After our practice he climbed on the stage and began to beat on one of the floor toms. It didn’t take long for Ryland to get Tyler Ringer to give him the sticks and assist him in playing. It was exciting to watch as Ryland “played” the drums. Of course he’s got a long way to go, but Chico definitley has a future in drumming (hahahahaha).
Thanks Tyler for taking the time to give Rylz his first drum lesson!

How cute!!! I am not suprised that he would “find” his calling in music. He really didn’t stand a chance with Mom & Dad’s love for music. I think it must be in the genes. Great job Rylz.
We miss you guys and love you!!!
