The King and his retinue
Right before the picture was taken Caroline tried to pull my hat off. More pictures later.
That's a snazzy photo, Mr. David, but remember this: strange women, lying in ponds, distributing swords, is no means of government. Supreme authority must come by a mandate from the masses. Of course I'm paraphrasing here.
Best,

Peter, KINGS do NOT have "hats". They have crowns.

P.S. Besides, I'm sure the fair Princess Caroline (ooh, that could be trouble) merely wanted a crown for her queen/mum.
Is it just me, or does PAD remind anyone of King Tut from the old Batman TV show?
Ah! Baby... too... cute. Can't... resist... cuteness.
eclark,
Damn! yeah, PAD would make an awesome King Tut. There's a picture of Victor Buono at http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/7537/tut.htm for those who don't know. (Looks like Victor outweighed PAD by quite a bit though).
If the campy Batman were still being made wouldn't Kelsey Grammer be a good choice? And the guy who played Niles could be The Bookworm.
Excuse me, I'm having a "You've wasted your life" moment.
Forgot to add--that is one majorly cute kid!

Ahh, but the post isn't signed by Peter. So it wasn't his crown Caroline tried to remove.
PAD,
Caroline is one major league cute child. And this is coming from a dad with two cute young daughters. You must be very proud.
Regards,
Dennis
looking good there, your majesty
sounds like your family had a fun weekend
Now that's a cute little girl!
And a pretty darned impressive royal set of parents too.
I hope you were accorded full royal honors at the Renfaire!
Thank you everyone for your kind comments. She is our cutie. She liked riding in the backpack because it gave her a preview of her potential height.
Caroline tried to pull off MY hat before the picture was taken. You can see it perched on top of my head rather than in place.
I am going to continue to improve the costumes for next year.
By golly, she really was folling him around with coconuts!
My costume would have been more ostentatious, cause I'm like... sort of just sick that way. I would have been pushing a cart around, loaded with dummies that appeared dead. I would have kept shouting, "Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!" Ocassionally one of the dummies would rise up and I'd pick up a large rock and throw it at it to "kill" it !
Great picture Peter, but where are the the three-headed knights who say "Ni--! ???

PAD looks like he's enjoying that king role much. :)
But what is the windspeed velocity of an African swallow?
Damn, that's a keeper! Ohhhhhhhhh, should I use that as my new desktop wallpaper? I love it!
Awesome picture! I don't think I've ever seen a picture of PAD without glasses.
Fantastic costumes, Kathleen! Next time you guys need to bring a video camera. The site could definitely use some galloping vids.
on second thought, Let's not go to Camelot, it's a silly place!
