The Hales Preview

Cute little family visiting their family here in KC, saw pictures I took of their family and urged me to take these photos the day before they left to go back home. They are a super sweet and obedient bunch of kids. I think the little girl is just breath-taking!

I said they were obedient because many of you who have sat through my children sessions before have met my trusted assistant - Pepe the Puppy Puppet. Well, usually I can't stop the laughs from my subjects as they watch Pepe kiss me and as I object in a silly (French) voice. Not this group. When I had Pepe try to kiss their mom, I didn't get the unusual shierks of delight. Instead, Pepe was warned to "stop kissing Mommy. It's not nice." Although I didn't get the usual laugher that makes for great kids photos, I was impressed at how the kids stood up for their mom and they obeyed her. Way to go Hales Kids! We got some cute pictures anyway :o) Poor Pepe! I need to take a picture of him someday for my friends and blog readers who are still wondering who Pepe is!
