"A costume is just the everyday clothing of your superhero alterego." - famous Monkee proverbhaahahaha well now I'm just having fun coming up with ridiculous quotes. Today we started piecing together our costumes. Every summer for 15 years I became a new character when I taught children for our church's VBS program. And I had A BLAST!!!
Here were just some of examples from those years!
At first, I was solo. My kids were IN the program - so they were too young to be my assistants. Here, my mom and I took an idea for a warrior princess (from a movie - any guesses where this costume idea came from??? If anyone can guess FIRST - i'll give them 5 steem!!! and no @bluefinstudios - not you. you already know LOL)
My baby girl (and one of her brothers, not pictured!) couldn't wait until they were old enough to work/play alongside me!!!
One more year going it solo - before they made their debut!
And there she is! Still a baby (this was 5 years ago?) but so ready to jump in there and have fun!!! (my son was actually on the other side of me - but we'll leave him low-key for now hehe)
The serious picture of us as special agents... and then of course -the silly picture! because that's the way it should ALWAYS be. LOL
Someone asked me the other day if Sydney was my biological daughter. (I don't blame them LOLOL- she looks exactly like my hubby who is 6'8", blond and blue-eyed!) but YES... she is!! 25 hours of labor and all! But maybe she looks a LITTLE bit more like me as a brunette??? What do you think @jamerussell? hehehe
This one was.. almost 3 years ago now! Not taller than her mom here - (but you know she is now! hehehe) Climbing mountains here and still battling to get to the top of those peaks!
AS YOU CAN SEE...
If anyone could make a career out of dressing up and having fun with kids - I think you can see we'd make pretty awesome candidates! hahaha You'll see the BEGINNING of our costume-making here. It always starts rather basic, and then builds and builds as we have fun embellishing with all the fun little things that make it AWESOME!
