Halloween Town

We went on our annual Halloween Disneyland trip and we had a blast! My parents and Will's "Aunt Dee" joined us too! We flew this time, which turned out to be pretty nice. We stayed at our usual spot at a nice hotel just kiddy corner to the park entrance.

He's not happy to be there at all, is he!? This was during one of the firework shows at night. He thought they were pretty cool.

We happened to pass a Mickey line that was super short, so we stopped and struck a pose. Kind of blurry, but we never get pictures with Mickey and we go all the time. So we just had to do it!

We were pretty horrible at taking group photos. But my parents did go with us and I think they had a good time. They lasted longer at the park than any of the rest of us. They were late night partiers! Here they are in front of the new Radiator Springs Race at Carsland in California Adventure. It is a pretty fun ride, but the wait is 2+ hours!

I took this picture on the Jungle Cruise... how stinkin cute are my boys? Disneyland should pay me for good advertising ;)

And William loved to hang out with his Aunt Dee. Here they are on the new(ish) Ariel ride. He looks so grown up- I can't even take it! His Aunt Dee is very good with him and they are good buddys. 

The park has done "Mickey's Halloween Party" for the last couple of years now, and we are fans. Everyone gets dressed up, the park closes early unless you have party tickets and you get to trick or treat all over the park, meet the Villains, have a special firework show and parade... it lots of fun. Here is Aunt Dee as a Cheetah, Will as Iron Man and Mommy- being lame and not dressing up.


Tony Stark and Iron Man... at the same time! I am one lucky girl!!!

 I am so glad that my family went with us this trip. I had a lot of fun and we all created some great memories. I am sad that our annual pass just expired... maybe we will renew in March. Oh Disneyland... how I will miss you.

PS- We newly discovered the Mint Julep bar at the French Market in New Orleans Square... can I say holy cow!? I've had mint juleps at Cafe Orleans before...but the bar blew those out of the park! And the beignets???? Delish!! I am sad that we didn't discover this place earlier.
