We came up with a great evil plan. Gabe drew his tattoo and took a picture of it with his camera.&nbsp;&nbsp; He left me this note by the back door when I came in. <\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/apr0108\/mar3108074.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">I got the camera and started drawing the same thing on my left leg&#8230; Same colors, same letters&#8230;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/apr0108\/mar3108069.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/apr0108\/mar3108072.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">This morning both Gabe and I came down this morning super sleepy..

You know you married the right women when she doesn&rsquo;t even point out such a goofy mix-up !<\/p>\n<p>I took Gabe in to school and noticed that the temperature outside was 55 at 7:30.. that&rsquo;s amazing..
