The Christmas season is coming to an end and I could not help putting up more Christmas pictures. Here is my brother David one Christmas morning holding his stocking.
I assume it is Christmas day because of the "Christmas mess" that is all over the floor. If I am right, then when this picture was taken, David will be celebrating his birthday in 5 days.
This picture is prophetic, because David (in the center) grew up a drummer. Glory and Mom were clarinetist and I a flutist. None of us are practicing musicians, but with David I ALWAYS think of him as a drummer. Drumming WIPE OUT in the garage on 11th street until the police (prompted by the neighbors) told him to stop. Drumming in the living room on his trap set. Drumming on glasses, chair arms, me, or anything that made a noise. His favorite noise is the sound cymbals make.
Later (much later) he was a drummer in church (I played the flute). That's when he became the founding member of The David Hanna Band (think Spinal Tap). The David Hanna band has never cut an album, or even made demo for that matter, but it is my favorite band because of David.
Happy Birthday Baby David.

Happy Birthday, drummer boy. I will always remember your bass tub and all of the other inovations you invented before the advent of genuine drums in your life. How I miss listening to you praise the Lord in church. Why do we all have to grow up and get so busy. I love you Baby Dabid. Happy Birthday from MOM
Happy Birthday, David. That was a nice trip down memory lane. The David Hanna band was awesome back in the BOF days!! Hope you are celebrating your life this season.
Catherine, when you send pictures, you must look at everyone..not just yourself. I liked the DH butt shot you posted :-)
I couldn't help but notice that tree behind him. It's pitiful. It looks like something out of A Charlie Brown Christmas. Back to David. David is a precious boy. He has a sweet nature. I never could understand why he was always in trouble. Look at that face!
Love you, David
