So, I did a thing back on December 22nd, I got my first tattoo and surprised my wife and sons with it as the last Christmas present.
It was kind of difficult hiding the tattoo while doing the normal post tattoo care, but luckily nobody caught on.
The look on their faces below was priceless!
Here’s the audio from the surprise:
Here are a few more pics of the process:

Thanks to Greg Marsden at Rustic Tattoos a small business on Sackville Street in Halifax for his excellent work and for being gentle on this rookie!
I told Greg I’ll be back when the Toronto Maple Leafs win the Stanley Cup!
Greg, a Montreal Canadiens fan said: “Well I guess I won’t see ya for a while then…”
Go Moose Go!
