Sunday Best

Some good friends of ours throw a Halloween party every year and every year it gets better and better! This year was no exception. The kids had a blast and it was fun being with friends. It's also when I take the opportunity to take our family Halloween picture. Usually by the time we get to it ON halloween....it's too dark for a good picture. Little ones were cranky, and scared of mom...and the 3 year old was afraid of the fly buggin' us, but we got the picture nonetheless!



As you can see (hopefully) we were dressed as the characters from Despicable me. I was Dr. Nefario, Duck was supposed to be Gru although he decided to not be festive and dress all the way up, Maliyah, Savannah, and Emma were dressed as the three orphan girls Margo, Edith and Agnes, Kyson was a minion and Jayden was of course Vector!

Somehow with Emma as Agnes I had to create some hair with a big ol' sticky out pony tail. It wasn't easy, but I feel I succeeded!



Jayden makes the best Vector. He already loved him from the movie and did a great 'oh yeah' not to mention his favorite scene about him wearing pajamas!

   

Maliyah totally looked the part of Margo and LOVED that I didn't have to do much to her hair. She always wants to have her hair in JUSt a ponytail and for one weekend actually got to!



Kyson was at first super excited about being a minion, but then later got a little self conscious about it. Winning the best costume at the ward activity though helped boost his confidence!



The party was a blast and I took a bazillion pictures but the last one I had to share was of our friends little girl. I went out back to take some of their two kids, and this little gal was just too cute!!








Every SUnday when my kids are in their Sunday best I want to take their picture. But inevitably we are always in a hurry and running late and it doesn't happen. BUT Halloween Sunday Best only happens once a year...if that so late or not. We were taking a picture.

I LOVE your costumes so much!! I especially love Emmas hair!! How fun! Being so prego this year, I just bough Olivia an Ariel costume and made Ayden a Lego Robin costume.
