Thanks to Happy Valley Tattoo!

So, Preston finally did it! He has always wanted a tattoo. He was originally going to get his kids' names, but decided he'd start out with this one first. Looks pretty good!

While the phrase "April fool" started out as a way to ridicule those who refused to change with the times (back in the 1500's) it's now a way to share our humorous side with family, friends and colleagues. This year, make a promise to yourself to play at least one April Fool's joke and to be a good sport when you're the butt of one. After all, the ability to laugh at one's self is a sure sign that you're not really a fool,regardless of what day or month it is.



I have great faith in fools - self-confidence, my friends call it.

~Edgar Allan Poe

Real friends are those who, when you feel you've made a fool of yourself, don't feel you've done a permanent job.

~Author Unknown

You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.

~Abraham Lincoln

We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance.

~Japanese Proverb

DID I FOOL YA? EVEN FOR A SECOND??
BE CAREFUL TODAY! :)

Ummm, HELLO! That looks nothing like Preston's back. It's actually his cousins. I took this picture last summer while at a family reunion. Did I ever mention I take pictures of strange things??

I love it! Nice job. Mike sent out an email to his family saying we had had the baby and attached a picture of a baby monkey. April Fool's day is so fun!

You didn't fool me for a second, Preston has WAY too many freckles on his back...and much less hair on his head :)
But I am curious, which of my cousin's is sporting this tat? I need to go to more family events :)

Carrie said...

Hey JaNae, It's Nick. He's got three...I think. (???) He has one on his peck that says Rex. We teased him about that, I can't remember the other one? So true, Preston's freckles do give it away, oh ya, and the bald thing!

Oh man, I was really excited. I wanted there to be one more person in the family, so I don't have to take to all, :-( j/k )-:

JaNae said...

LOL! Nick has Rex's name on his peck....isn't that supposed to be a spot for your wife or girlfriends name, whatever to each their own I say! But that's kinda weird if you ask me... Then again, maybe I'll get "Rosie" put on my bum...kidding :)
