Alternately, you could suggest that onlookers throw money into Alice’s hat, Petey. You could even get a cut of the take.

Wowza, that is some get-up. She got everything she wanted, didn’t she?

Well Alice, it kinda limits your exposure to a wider audience.

ladies and gentlemen, the queen of the fourth of july!!!

I was in a marching band. We did several town parades in the summertime.

Dill’s going to think she’s a Goddess.

Awww, how cute! This brings back memories growing up…we always decorated our bikes and paraded around! Fun!

Nice job dad!!! You even included the eagle!!

They should build a miniature revamp for her to jump over something (Dill?); she looks like a miniature Evel Knievel

And what parade is that for? It’s already DAYS AFTER THE 4th???

adorable.

Haha! Good one Petey! Way to keep up the big brother tradition.

Hmmm, the tight circles may be an issue. I’m imagining it throwing off the cadence of the marching band right behind her, and them bumping into one another and falling like dominoes. I mean, one can hope, right? Heh.

That’s one Cool, Tricked-out Trike! Well done, Daddy Peter! And Queen Alice’s costume is, well, impressive if nothing else. But, talk about “bucketheads”? Isn’t that the core of Alice’s royal crown?! —And a fine receptacle for deviled eggs tossed by admiring commoners it is!

Stability issue: is the Alice-trike stable turning constantly in tight circles? Or might it tip over?!

Looking sharp, Alice.

I love how good her parents are to her. Such loving parents.

I have a soft sculpture bald eagle like that.
