Here are the matching tattoos!

Becky’s parents, who hadn’t previously been, um, introduced to Becky’s tattoo (though they knew she was planning to get one eventually), apparently just discovered the pictures on the website. :)

Here’s an explanation of what the “Tan Fire” — which the tattoos are a variation of — means.

Oh, and I’ve created a separate blog category for the 17 entries (and counting) that I’ve posted about Becky and Shannon’s tattoos.

Here is Becky’s tattoo, newly uncovered.

Here it is! This is Shannon’s tattoo, just finished.

Now it’s Shannon’s turn. (In this pic you can see one of her prior tattoos.)

Becky makes a face as her tattoo is shaded. Remember the slogan of this place: “Hell yeah it hurts!” Heh.

Shannon and Vikki, seen in the mirror, talk to Becky as Jim does Becky’s tattoo. You can see me, too, holding the camera-phone up to take the picture. :)

Becky’s tattoo is in progress.

The “before” shot.

Shannon and the tattoo artist, Jim, discuss the design.

We`re driving to the tattoo place now. Becky and Shannon are considering altering the design somewhat. I`ll keep you posted.

News flash: Becky and Shannon have decided to get their tattoos on their right calves (not their foreheads, this photo notwithstanding :)
