Benjamins 4th Birthday!

We finally make good on our threat - we gave Benjamin a drum set for his birthday! More on that later - The special day started with a kids party at the "House of Bounce" in Rochester - this place is a chiropractor's dream! It's a huge space filled large inflated bouncing things. While Grandma and Grandpa safely watched from the sidelines, Benjamin and his friends (and his parents) enjoyed some time on the "rides" and then shared cupcakes in the party room. Then it was back to the Schmitts for a small family BBQ with some yummy greek chicken, cupcakes and more gifts! For years we have been teasing Jessica and Mike about getting Benjamin a drum set, but to be honest, he has such a passion for music, we felt it was time to expand his talents into the percussion family. We scoured the internet for a suitable drum set, one that was more than a toy and could take the punishment of a 4 yr old as well as grow along with him. We found a fabulous one at Vintage Drums - a beautiful blue set (to match his eyes). Check out the pics and video - he's a natural - watch out Brad!!! There are more videos on our Flickr link...
