My Little Brothers First Tattoo!
WARNING: English/American translation needed!!
(before you read this blog, let me clear up... every time it says football, it means "soccer")
My little brother just turned 19 and gave me a call that I have recieved so many times from my other siblings.. "Hey, uh... I was thinking, it is my birthday and I really want to get a tattoo...." so I laugh and look at my calendar to find an open day that I could do it for him. We set up a date and he came over to get his first tattoo. Most people will get some small tattoo that is a stupid design in an out of the way place on their body that they will regret years later when they are trying to tie in all of their other tattoos to this stupid first one that they got. The interesting thing is that he went straight for the visible forearm tattoo. He chose the England Football Badge as his tattoo which of course I had a lot of fun doing, but the funny thing about that is that this paticular brother was the first out of two brothers to be born in the USA. I didn't give him too much crap about that though. He grew up with all of the English culture and he has been to England in his lifetime. He also loves to watch the England team play the world cup every four years, our whole family get together and do a lot of cheering and screaming. Anyone who says that football is a boring sport needs to come over and watch a game with my family.. Non-believers and nay-sayers have come before and walked away with a different point of view.
Anyway.. Here is the picture of my brothers tattoo, I suppose this is kind of the becoming a man in my family. And to remind everybody that although born in Utah.. This kid is English!
