For Jeremey's birthday, I got him some new ink. :) He really wanted something representing our marriage...and I would not allow a portrait of me. You think I'm joking...I'm dead serious, he mentioned that as an option he was seriously considering. Yikes! We finally settled on this tat...which turned out beautiful. It's a pelican, for those of you living more in-land. When we got engaged, there were hundreds of pelicans ALL OVER THE PLACE...and this bird symbolizes both loyalty and self-sacrifice in many cultures. What better to represent our union.










Sterling was a pirate last Halloween. He and daddy both dressed up. It was ADORABLE!

In some Christian (Catholic) circles, the pelican represents Christ, because the mom will cut itself/shed its blood to feed its young if necessary. Or so I'm told. :)
