The Drummer in the Band.

So yeah. Drummers. What is it about them? I mean, Lars Ulrich TOTALLY made Metallica. Then, the drummer from Bon Jovi, Guns 'N Roses, and then, HELLO, Nick Jonas. Yeah, the drummers totally make the band.

And there's something so...so...intriguing about drummers and the way they can make their arms and legs all do different things all at once. It's so freaky. Especially to my blonde mind that can't pat my head and rub my tummy at the same time.

Anyway. Drummers.

Saturday night, our church had a praise and worship mass, replete with a band. With a drummer. A 16 year old, adorable drummer. At one point, I glanced over at my sweet 11 year old daughter and noticed her captivated by the band and for a second, for just one fleeting, warp speed second, I saw my life flash before my eyes.

That drummer? (I honestly don't know if she was looking at him, or just taking in all of the talent up on that makeshift stage...) That drummer is about the same age difference from Belle as the Mr. is to me. *faint*

It was like all of a sudden, in blurred, psychedelic colors, my mind brought me forward 20 years to the drummer and Belle and marriage and grandkids and OH MY. I may have had a mini, second long panic attack, because just as quickly as those blues and greens and reds flashed through my mind, I was back in church, more closely scrutinizing just who Belle was looking at and *how* she was looking.

I'm happy to report, I didn't see anything but innocence...no googly eyes, no blushing, no dreamy look on her face, so I'm thinking, or at least choosing to believe, that she was just captivated by the talent in front of us.

I caught myself staring a little too...I mean, HOW do they thump that bass and rap on the snare and tap the cymbal ALL AT THE SAME TIME?! I can't wrap my mind around it.

Drummers. They're just kinda special.

  2. I think it's the action of the drummers - all that arm movement :) It's action without having to dance around an audience :) Keeps you looking at them :)

Come here looking for the tutorial? It can be found here:  Halo Braid Tutorial!  Let me know how it goes! I had something in mind to try on Baby Girl's hair the other day...my best bud, Dr. J, did something similar to it on Belle once, and I was trying to replicate it. Instead, I got this: Isn't it pretty?! It didn't take nearly as long as it looks and isn't nearly as intricate as it looks! Vlog tutorial coming soon...(for those of you waiting, I'm sorry it's taking me so long!)

Halo Braid Tutorial!

How appropriate, "halo braid", no?! ;) Finally, I have this ready for you...I apologize for the delay! This braid looks intricate, but is really quite easy and quick to pull off...the original video (prior to the warp speed braiding...watch the video to see what I mean) was just a bit over 8 minutes long...not too shabby! So, here you go...right in time for you to try it out on your little girl for Easter!
