We did a mother/daughter thing:

The inspiration, Harry Potter, of course:

I am digging the placement she chose. It’s so sweet & unobtrusive.

I really need to have my h❤dges touched up, but my wrist was too tender to handle the loops. I did have my blackbird filled in though.

This little flight of fancy has been perched for 10years! The inspiration is a Nordstrom ad for the Spring 2009 collections.

We had a lovely experience. For any locals I would definitely recommend Empire Tattoo Parlor. Mandi did ours, but all the artists have great portfolios. I imagine I’ll be going back. I’ll have to have the touch up work eventually & I may be already thinking of my next addition.

Obviously, we didn’t go all the way to the ville without eating!

Lunch at Comfort & coffee across the street at River City!

Keeping those casual promises is proving very easy when they’re fun!
