We Got Inked!

Ryan and I had a date day yesterday.  Just the two of us from noon till 10.  It was perfect... and slightly painful.


Ryan has wanted a few tattoos since I have known him and we decided that we might as well just do it!


He took it like a man the entire time.  I think he only made a face like twice.  He made it look so easy!


It took about 3 hours from start to finish.


He got the Alpha Omega sign over a cross over a "V" which symbolizes a dove.


His idea was to have the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit all in one tattoo.


I think he pulled it off great!


I got the inspiration for my design from the one Heidi Klum has of her husband's name.  My friend Austin drew it up for me over a year ago and I'm happy to finally have it on my arm.


I wasn't expecting it to hurt that bad after watching Ryan get his done and being as cool as a cucumber the entire time.


Let me just tell you, even after having 2 kids... this hurt.  Badly.


But it was over in less than 5 minutes... so it wasn't so bad :)


I love the way that they both turned out!  And I love the fun adventure that we got to have together!


Thank you to Jesse from Beloved Studios for making us super cool parents with tats :)


Do you have any tattoos?  Any regrets?  Any think you maybe think you want... but aren't sure yet?  I'd love to hear your tattoo stories!
