october + new ink

we are now officially 3/4 of the way through 2011! so weird!

and even though i got it done yesterday, i'm starting october off with a new tattoo!

this one's for my grandparents, because i love them sosososo much!

my grandma collects all things chickens (even though this is a rooster, sorry grandma!). the poppies are for my grandpa, who is called 'poppy' by all his grandchildren. i've got at least one more session to go for the flowers (that's why there's just blood lines - those babies need color!) and to add some writing that reminds me of my grandma (you'll see later)..

even though my grandparents live in oregon & i was born and raised in california, i spent a lot of time with them growing up, and they have had (and still continue to have) a big impact on my life!

wishing you all a wicked&wonderful october!
