Family pictures!
Our trip to the "Medieval Times" dinner theatre show.
If there's a Medieval Times show in your city, I recommend it. It's not cheap but it's a lot of fun and they really put on a good show.
And this is us at the Fort Malden Heritage show:

And this is Matthew, demonstrating that you can still intimidate people even when you're small, as long as you have a huge fucking gun:
And this is a shot from the Abingdon Renaissance Faire at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington, Ontario:
I recommend the Renaissance Faire; it's a lot of fun. More info at http://www.ontariorenaissancefaire.ca/

If your kids are anything like I was at their age, my guess is the Ren Fest must've been a pretty big draw on your checking account...

*Snip pic of Mike dressed all medieval and stuff*
That image cracks me up. I must find a use for it via photoshop...
And alas, I have no pictures of my own kids for various reasons too numberable and obvious to detail. Closest I can do is my Transformers collection, but that'd just be weird.

Medieval Times is quite entertaining. We had a school field trip there sometime when I was in high school (might have been a senior class trip...my memory's kinda fuzzy about field trips). Haven't made it to a renfaire yet (although my cousin keeps trying...timing just hasn't worked out). I have made it to a 19th-century campground, though. Blackpowder arms are definitely intimidating, with the large bore they tend to have.
And I'm tempted to make a joke about Vikings not needing long pants, but at 2:30 am I can't think of a punchline...

Your eldest son is going through his growing spurt I see ... I forgot how 'stretched' young kids tend to look when they start grwoing so quickly.
Looks like you all had a good time.

That looks like a whole lot of fun. Though aren't you afraid some "folks" would have "fun" "modifying" that pic of you with that big axe?
Did you rent the medieval gear, and the big axe, or are they yours? If it's the latter, then that'd be very frickin' cool.

I'd assume that as they were at a medieval event, that they would have plenty of stuf for people to try out
