Despicable Me 3 in Theaters Friday and a Despicable Me Talking Minion Toy/iTunes Giveaway!

**This post is in partnership with Universal Pictures. All my opinions are my own and not swayed by outside sources.**

My family and I LOVED Despicable 1, Despicable 2, and Minions! Now we are so excited for Despicable 3 which opens this Friday, June 30th! This franchise is one my entire family loves! While my kids find the minions hysterical, my husband and I also get a kick out of these movies. We even watch the first and second one sans kids sometimes!Despicable 3
