Well, al, you do look tall enough and slender enough to be able to make swishy movements in wizard robes but the rest of the clan seems a bit shortish in comparison. It is really only Mrs. al who we can see does not have hobbit feet--unless she, er, um, *cough* depilates them? She looks great in a very dishy dress though!

Did I mention that I stand nearly 10 feet tall? Them kids are near giants themselves...

alatar continues in his willful disbelief in regards to his children, though they do tend to eat as only hobbits can (and hence the reason he takes them to places were it snows food and rains drink, as they say).

Your children look adorable. Your eldest(?) daughter really takes after he mother doesn't she... the little ones look more like you.

She looks great in a very dishy dress though!
And that after FOUR children - if it weren't for the above mentioned strong likeness you'd swear she'd stolen them....

Girl in the Grass has just left Hobbiton.
I'm already on the photo page, as Mad Baggins, but I completely forgot my password so I had to make a new profile. Bummer.

Seeing as how that picture is about three or four years old, I'm definitely sending in a new one.

Whoa! How... *tries to think of a good word* ...stairy...

And speaking of that, I made sir Volo upgrade my picture with a more recent one (taken not even a week ago)... so you can look at it too when you are looking on Cobbler's one. (Er... already happened )

I love it when old members return. . .I often go through the photo page and look at the people who left the forum before I joined, I think they give this place a sence of mythical history.

I couldn't agree more. And tat "mythical history" is much longer for me- I joined over two years after you.

I edited the name. Ok?

And also changed Lhuna's photo.

Since I'm in a mood for commenting today

Lhuna's hair is adorable, Legate looks like a hobbit and Cabbie like a Greek statue.

Name edit is great. I assume we send in the pic via e-mail, as I am about to do...
