Throwback Thursday

A long time ago I found that my Grandmother was related to the Underwood family. And of course, I did find that they had a Motto. 

Noli irritare leonem (Irritate not the lion)

That is awesome....So I adopted it and have collected lions ever since.  Here are a couple of my collection.

Here is the Underwood Family Crest..  There is a book around somewhere but actually right now I am reading Leonardo Da Vinci by Walter Isaacson and that is more interesting now..

Well,  now I am interested so here they are...
