It's a frame-up

There were exactly two things I really wanted to accomplish when I boarded the airplane to go to Hawaii.  I wanted to try my hand at surfing and I wanted to get some new photos of my nephews.  I have a three-paneled frame on my kitchen wall with their lovely faces in it.  The pictures that were in the frame were several years old.  I said that they featured the boys when they had little kid faces.  Now, the boys have pretty grown-up faces.  I wanted my wall to reflect that.

Alex wanted to get a haircut first.  Jack did not want to show his teeth in his smile (we had to coax, beg and tickle), but Andrew really didn't care one way or another.  He stood where I asked, smiled on command and went back to whatever he was doing when we were all done.

I know they probably don't care- I mean they're 12, 15 and 15- why would they?  But I am very happy to have the new photos on my wall.  My brother has some pretty good looking kids.
