Knights Parade

A client and good friend invited me to march with his Santa Margarita Krewe in the Knight Parade. What a hoot. Had to buy a case of beads and rent a pirate costume. Here I am in my best Cap'n Morgan pose, at my office, before I headed to the parade.

Boys at Gasparilla

I took the boys to Tampa's Gasparilla Parade a few weeks ago. They were pretty wiped out by the time we decided to leave. They actually had a lot more fun than this photo shows.

Packing Heat, a/k/a Christmas in Kansas

I took my boys back to Kansas the weekend before Christmas, for the Stayton family celebration. As a joke, one morning we came up with the idea of all of us packing guns while we waited for family to arrive from Wichita. I don't think you can see all of the guns in this picture, but everyone in it has something. Even Parker, the baby, has a little pocket .22 derringer clipped to his overalls.

They didn't think it was as funny as I did.
