Spooktacular

We LOVE Halloween at our house, so when we planned our trip to California we knew we had to hit Disneyland for Halloween time. It was SO much fun!! We have experienced it at Christmas and that is fun too, but it is so different at Halloween time. Such a fun energy. We were originally planning on going on Tuesday but the biggest rain storm of the year rolled in so we post-poned it until Thursday. It was perfect weather, partly cloudy in the morning and then sunshine and high 70's the rest of the day. Tommy's parents, his brother Kyle and his friend JJ joined us. We were able to get right on to any ride which made it so nice with having the kids. We got in so many rides this time around. The kids LOVED it! They both really were into it this year, Bailey more than I thought. She would YELL out ever character that she saw and would get so excited about everything.

Disneyland does such a good job of decorating the park for Halloween. There are pumpkin EVERYWHERE!! Lots of characters dressed up in costumes, they were so cute!! Lots of villains out and about; Jafar, Cruella Da Ville, Witch from Snow White. And our FAVORITE character Jack Skellington and Sally. Caleb was thrilled to see him walking around. They had some fun themed rides as well that we were able to go on while the kids were napping. Space Mountain was turned into a spooky ride, totally cool. And of course, we had to experience the Haunted Mansion featuring Jack.

We also watched the Celebration Parade. Bailey was so excited to finally see Daisy featured in the parade. Yippee!!!

And what is a trip to Disneyland without a Churro......ohhh so good!

After a very long and exhausting day we headed to our hotel, we were all so tired!!!! The kids helped make it so magically, another AMAZING and MEMORABLE family trip to Disneyland!!!!

I love Bailey and Caleb peeking out of the jack-o-lantern and how Bailey is totally in the Nemo porthole and Caleb's bright smile driving "Bumblebee". Disney rocks!
