Skipping Christmas

Well, not really. But I haven’t even taken those photos off my camera yet, and I have more exciting news to share with you! Jeff and I went to get tattoos yesterday. It was Jeff’s first, and my second. It was cool to go together. It still hurt BAD. For me at least. My new tattoo is much bigger than my first one. Jeff designed it for me, and I love it. It took about 2 1/2 hours, and Mike did a fantastic job. Thanks Mike!!

Jeff said the pain factor was about what he expected. It hurt more in some places than others, but overall it didn’t bother him as much as it does me. I do NOT have any tolerance for pain. Jeff’s tattoo was super ambitious for his first one. He went to Mike with some print outs of things he likes, and a general shape he was looking for, and Mike took it from there. Jeff sat for 3 1/2 hours today, and probably has about 8-9 hours left to go. I have to say, Jeff’s isn’t done, he has two more sittings to go, but when it’s finished – it is going to be awesome.

I can’t wait to post more when Jeff goes for his next sitting. Stay Tuned!

Signs of Spring

With a little warm up in the temperature, we have many signs of life around the Baxa house!

Our first flowers have bloomed

And there are more ready to pop out

We also have lots of kids playing outside. Even though Quinn has a bike, and a big wheel, and a scooter, his favorite by far is still the good old Cozy Coupe.

He found his keys the other day, and couldn’t wait to get out there and drive the car!

The other two, are having fun just hanging around the backyard! Quinn enjoys that too – but not nearly as much as making car noises in the driveway.

Today it is quite chilly, and very windy. Seems a little bit more like fall than spring. But, I have faith our warmer temps will be back soon!
