I own nothing fro DWP I just borrowed the characters for inspiration.
Just a short add on.
Saturday morning the twins were up bright and early to go to the street fair to shop for Miranda's Christmas present. Miranda raised an eyebrow as the girls descended the back steps showered and dressed.
"We are just going to get out of your hair Babe so you can work on January's issue." Andrea winked at Miranda.
Miranda smiled and gave each of her girls a kiss. "Have fun."
The three girls walked up and down the booths but nothing jumped out at them.
The girls were getting more and more disappointed. "We are never going to find anything Andy." Whined Cassidy.
"We are not done yet. Just give it a chance." Frankly Andy was getting worried herself that nothing would catch their eyes.
Just then they walked by a cartoonist. Now they had passed many cartoonist along their way but there was something about this one. He was unique were the others all looked the same. Somehow this one was able to pull the soul out of a person and put it in the picture. The eyes showed emotion while the faces entertained you with silliness.
Cassidy stopped. "This is it."
"Seriously Cassidy?" Caroline laughed.
"Yes, look how good they look, and it would make Mom laugh. I think we should have all three of us in it." Cassidy said.
Caroline peered at the pictures posted. Some were of famous people. She thought long and hard.
"We can have it done. If you two find something else you like better you can save this for another time." Andy commented.
Caroline looked up at Andy. "Really we can do that?"
Andy shrugged. "Of course."
The three sat and posed while the artist went to work. People would pass and laugh, making the twins very nervous. Others would pass and smile. Finally the artist was done.
The girls jumped up and looked at the finished product. "Wow!" Exclaimed Cassidy
"Yea, wow." Mused Caroline.
Andy looked. "Cassidy this was a great idea. Your Mother is really going to like this."
Caroline was laughing too hard to respond. Their next stop was a shop that would mat and frame the caricature. They had the entire store laughing with the picture. Cassidy was proud of herself for picking out the artist. The framed art work would be ready for pickup in a week.
After picking out the mat and frame the three walked around looking at the framed art available. Andy stopped in front of a rather large painting.
"Wow that looks like Scotland." Cassidy exclaimed.
"Yea." Came Caroline. "It could be from Grandmas back yard with the swing and picnic table."
Andy nodded. She looked at the name of the artist but did not recognize it. She went to the counter and inquired about the artist. Back at the picture she could not take her eyes off of it. It was perfect.
"Come on Andy we're board looking around here." Cassidy grabbed for Andy's hand.
"One second girls I will be right back." Andy went to the counter and talked with the clerk. Walking back to the girls she announced. "O.K. girls how about we have lunch before going back to the townhome? You get to pick the place."
"Yea!" They shouted.
