If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them. ~Henry David Thoreau

A Part of the Family Now
As of yesterday, I am no longer a Cates girl. I am now a Tibbs girl. Traditionally, most gals change their last name within weeks of marrying their true love, but I didn't do that. Matt and I have been married almost five years and I am just not adopting his last name.
Here are some interesting facts about the Tibbs name:
* The Tibbs name is an important part of history in the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain
* Tibbs is derived from the baptismal name, Theobald.
* Most people acquire the name Tibbs with the 1970's movie, They Call Me Mister Tibbs, starring Sidney Poitier.
* A lot of people name their animals Mr. Tibbs.
Here are a few other Tibbs out there:Above: Andrew, Matt & Beth... I am very fortunate to have such great family members!
Above: Matt... the husband. Pretty crazy guy, huh?
Above: Beth & Matt... being silly. Love that.
