Photo of the Week 2013 #38
Yesterday was Halloween in the US and our tradition for the last 6 years has been to have a fancy photo shoot with Audrey and her costume for the year. This year Sophie thought with Audrey's short haircut it would look adorable for her to dress us in a flapper dress circa 1920. We had …
