another kind of canvas

Ben getting his tattoo at Scapegoat
Very brave
It looked quite painful
It was fun to watch though....sorry babe!

Well, the day finally came. The day that Ben has been longing for for quite some time now. The tattoo has been something he's wanted since we were married. So here it is, 12 years later and he finally got it. If you are an adult and are reading this I am sure you can relate with the fact that there are lots of things we want and we get so close to getting whatever it is and then the money set aside is needed for something else. So for Christmas the deal was sealed. It took about 4 hours. I was able to go thanks to my parents watching the kids for us. Two of his friends also showed up to show some support. Thanks Peter and Benjie. I was pretty intrigued by the whole process and I am really glad that I was there to see it and be part of it. I think if he would have come home with it I would have freaked out a bit because it was quite a bit bigger than I was thinking. I love it though. Ryan did a great job. Sydney is excited for when daddy is going to get one with her name on it. It's going to be awhile however. My name......even longer.
