absolutely the best...

the best photo shoot ever

that is

~~

the little boy

was so sweet

and

somehow managed to keep a smile on his face the entire afternoon

and

gosh

was he ever great at winking

the mom

oh

she was a fancy mom

a bit stiff

but fancy

~

the gloves

the jewelry

the attitude

and

wow

she worked the camera like a pro

the dad

was very quiet

hardly moving at all during the shoot

and

lacking a bit in the smile department

but

he hung in there

~

at first

I thought he was a bit overdressed

but

quickly decided

the top hat

the bow tie

and

the umbrella

were all part of his icy charm

right before the end of our shoot

while the little boy was busy waving at the birds

dad loosened up a bit

mom joined in

and

together they showed me some of the moves they recently learned

while watching

~so you think you can dance~

seriously

this family was so much fun

they made me smile

more than I made them smile

~~

now that's a special family
