On her proper right is a boy just slightly shorter than the girl. He faces the girl and also has his arms outstretched. Behind him stands a younger boy holding the same position. Behind the younger boy is a small girl. Her proper right arm is raised high. Behind her is the smallest figure, a young boy. A dog stands to the proper right of the youngest boy. The dog is carrying a frisbee in its mouth. The sculptures stand directly on the ground on circular self-bases.
