Hey Gramma and Grampa... look what Grandson did!

Tyler turned 18 in the middle of December and wanted to get a tattoo for his birthday.  I have seen him many times on the computer getting ideas and putting stuff together.  He has even asked me to help him out.. Anyhow... I'm getting ahead of myself a bit. ... Let's start abit at the beginning shall we.....

As an early christmas gift, we all went and got our hair done. Here are a few pics of the new do's....  Brianna with lowlites and highlights....

yes Tyler wanted purple hair.

In one sitting, after 2 bleach jobs, an ash toner, and then colour, this is what it looked like. Unfortunately, his hair went ASH GREY/ WHITE / GREEN and Pink after 5 days. He had to put his hair back to his "natural" colour yesterday.

So the next week, Brianna then celebrates her Sweet 16 at the lonestar in high fashion!!!

Yup, let's embarrass a 16 year old, have the waiters, waitresses sing with cowbells and all... and make her stand on a chair with the big hat!

 mmmmmm  icecream! humiliation ain't that bad.

Good to the last drop!

Yum...... Nachos!!!!!

So today..... is the big day for tyler... the story as you have patiently waited for......

OFF to Ventura Blvd.... to see cousin' Richard for Tyler's first tatoo...

Tyler, being 18, has to fill out the permission/release form and sign it!
