The 4 amigos in costume!

I can't even begin to describe how character revealing this shot is... seriously, still chuckling about it, in a good way, not in a mean way ;) Maria is posing like the little princess she is, always ready, always cute and sweet. Diana is in her Alice in Wonderland costume, all the while acting as 2nd mommy to baby who was trying to squeeze his way out of the frame. She has him pinned between her feet. Little Tak makes a cute Nemo...but not so much when he's half-asleep...a bit grumpy and tired. Little Dashi tries to escape, but his sister's blockade frustrates him. He likes to play with the rocks and tastes them in hopes of finding a snack. Ah, good times! Oh, yes, and this was before the great Halloween downpour of 2010. It's diehards with umbrellas (like us) that ventured out to trick-or-treat!
