Battle Maraca!

Last night Colin and Gillian went on a limited tricks or treating outing. Gillian was a Penn State Cheerleader

and Colin... well, Colin was Originally going to be Joe Paterno as he has some khaki pants that are now a little sort, but I dropped the ball with respect to finding him a black baby wig. With his red hair, it was fairly apparent that he wasn't Joe Paterno, but our friend Ken had a good idea: Colin could be Mike McQueary. So that's who he was:

After getting dressed up, we headed out to visit Miss Amy (she watches Colin and Gillian while Lea works). We visited there for a while and then went over to the Miller's.

Julia was also destined to be a Penn State cheerleader for Halloween, and we had hoped to get some cute pictures of Gillian and Julia together in their outfits... alas, that was not to be. This is as close as we came:

We had also wanted to get a picture of all four kids together and that didn't happen either. It was like herding cats! Though our attempt at a group photo did yield this amusing series of photos in which Colin sees Gillian with some maracas, Colin decides that he wants to have them, they fight over the maracas, and Lea laughs as Julia has now wandered away from our photo area during the maraca battle.
