October 2010

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 looks SoOOOOO much like Jeremey as a child in these next two pics.
We went to an "Art-tober Fest" with Uncle Jared. We thought it was an October fest, but realized our error when we got there...no beer, no music, no German anything. Oh well. We still had fun. Sterling really liked going down this giant inflatable slide with us.
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. :)
