A few weeks ago, I decided it was time to take the plunge and get the tattoo I've been planning for two years. I knew I wanted it to be for our family, and have Jesus Fish in it. My lovely friend Sarah drew it for me.
I decided I wanted to be able to see it all of the time, so I chose my wrist. Here is my wrist about 8 pm this evening...
And here is my wrist with it's new decoration.
There is a fish there for John and I, and for Ava, Jace, Eli, and Seth. Eli's fish is a slightly different color, which should show up more at the tattoo heals.
And here is me in the middle of it all:
Thanks SO much to Phil Holt at Red Letter 1 in Tampa. He did an awesome job and made it a relatively pain free experience for me!
More details later...I am beat!

I love that design! I am a sign language interpreter so I can't have any tattoos on my hands or wrists, but believe me, I wish I could......so I try to make up for it with the rest of my skin even though to date I only have two.....anyways...awesome design!
Love it El! I lived in Tampa for a while after college, let's see... 2000-2001. Worked at St. Joseph's Baptist, personal trained at Gold's Gym, and lived in Temple Terrace. Next time I come to disney I am calling you :)
