Pool Tatts Are Cool Tatts

One of the highlights of the end of summer swim season finals is the creation of the fish tattoos on the kids' backs or shoulders.  This year, I spaced out and because The Boy was away at Flaming Gorge the week prior to the meet, I didn't contact our darling friend, Bill H, who has always drawn the killer fish tatts for us.

The Boy asked Friday afternoon if I'd contacted Bill about setting up a tattoo appointment.  DOH!  I forgot.  I called and left a really lame, and pathetic sounding, voice mail at his home.  I didn't expect to connect with him before we had to leave early the next morning for the swim meet.

But, bless his heart, he called me back at just after 6 AM Saturday morning.  He said he was getting up to go on a bike ride and could run down to the house for us if we still wanted.  Aw, man.  He is so good to us.  But when I couldn't get a hold of him the night before, The Girl took it upon herself to draw something mean and fishy on The Boy's back.

And so she did.  Not too bad for a tatt made from Sharpie pens?
