This year, hubby and I decided to be characters from the movie Despicable Me 2, Gru and his purple evil minion. He bought the mask and scarf online and improvised on his jacket. I bought my tutu online as well since work got in the way of being crafty but did the minion shirt myself. I bought a purple shirt from Uniqlo and used felt cloth from a 100 yen shop and got creative!
The Hendricks, who we consider as our extended family here in Okinawa, were also having fun with their characters. Steve was a redneck, his wife Yuko was a hippie, and their son Takumi was a riddler. Steve Jr, came in his ROTC uniform (not in the photo).
The hosts, Christa and Chris, were excellent. The small craft details around their house for Halloween was really impressive. We are very certain we had so much fun. Happy Halloween 2013!

i am uniquely and wonderfully made. 
Those costumes are great!!
Thank you :)
Sooooooo sweet.
Thank you Yuko :) You look awesome in the photos :)
Did you make everything yourself?
The tutu was from Etsy. All I did was the design on the shirt :)
I just bought the shirt and designed it. My tutu is bought as well, there was no time to make one. If you plan to make your own tutu, there are video tutorials on youtube. I watched it a lot of times for reference.
