As we toured the streets of Keystone, we were enticed into Professor Samuel's Portrait Emporium. Eight kids donned costumes from the ol' West. The boys (Kade, Jadin, and Jagur) were thrilled with their Western attire and spent a long time searching for the right gun. Grinning from ear to ear they accommodated the requests and played quietly as they waited their turn. The girls sought out the perfect accessories to their floozy costumes. My little two-year-old niece, Jaela, was darling in her little red dress and hat. She was so charming and accommodating...until the photographer stepped behind the camera. Then she was done. No amount of bribery could change her mind. Sadly, the photo shot went on without her.
Playing dress-up is fun forever. I suspect these memories will last a lifetime. Just watching the kids enthusiastically embrace the experience had all the adults smiling!
