The last 2 days have been crazy busy with Halle's Wal-Mart job. She had a great time shooting Christmas in June! She even got to have a "fake" mom one day. She said having a fake mom was fun but she doesn't want a fake dad- that would be weird. Not exactly sure what that says about me, but I'm trying not to overthink it! She bonded with the photographer over their shared love for dachshunds. They exchanged pics of our little boys and his litle girls.(Any opportunity to talk about Charlie!) He gave us a lot of positive feedback at the end of the shoot- I don't know if that's a credit to Halle or the dachshunds! We also met with J Crew's tailor today to fit the clothes for the shoot on Friday. And guess what Halle gets to wear? Dachshund pants! I'm telling you, we are just dachshund people- they follow us everywhere! I will post pics from the shoots Friday night.

We did some more sight seeing this past week. My parents came to visit and I think we took the kids on about 10 hours of bus tours- they now know everything there is to know about NYC! We took a trip to the MET and realized it would take forever to see everyting there. Brandt did a shoot for a local sporting goods store and Kenzie did a FIT for Roxy and Calvin Klein. Everyone's having a good time even though they miss the dogs a lot! I've seen the kids show such a tender heart and compassion for the people they see on the streets who are homeless. It is definitely a different world up here and they are seeing the good and the bad. This coming week will be busy with more auditions and a Wal-Mart shoot for Halle. I will post some pics of Halle's shoot towards the end of the week. I put a new slide show below with shots from the past week or so.
