Halloween at Disneyland with Family

We had a wonderful opportunity to go to Disneyland a week ago! We met met up with lots of family which made this trip SO fun!

We met Tami, Meili, Eliah, and Ana at the park for our first day. We had such a fun time with them on this day! We partied the day away!

Here we are in front of Space Mountain. They changed it this year for Halloween which was really fun!



We headed over to California Adventure in the afternoon to do some rides there. They had never done Toy Story or Tower of Terror. They loved them both!

Can't have a trip without seeing the boss!

Toward the evening we headed back to Disneyland to see Fantasmic! Tami, Ana, and I waited for three hours for the show at the Riverbelle Terrace Restaurant! (The best place to see the show)

Right before the show began, we were joined by Dave, Katie, Lincoln, and Scout! We all watched the show and it was so fun watching it with the kids who haven't seen it before! Here is Lincoln watching the pirates on Captain Hook's ship.

After the show we headed for the rides! Here is the crew on the Small World boat.

Then we headed back to Space Mountain so Katie and Dave could have an opportunity to ride. The park was pretty busy considering it was supposed to be the off season. They have introduced so much for Halloween that everyone decided to come!

Our second day at the park was all about the kids! We started our day in Bug's Land with the Chase family.


Then we ran into Sully! This is probably the cutest picture we got on the trip! It was so cute watching Lincoln run up to him and Sully just turned around and buried Lincoln in his fur! What a great memory!

We then took Meili and Eliah for a while to enjoy the big rides!


We then met up with everyone again to ride the Nemo subs and head out for the night. We met Natalie and Abbie for dinner at Denny's and dessert at Cold Stone and headed in for the night.


The next morning we headed back into the park with Eliah. We met up with Abbie and Meili and spent the morning with them.


We met up with the rest of the group and spent the majority of the afternoon with everyone.

Here is the whole group (Minus Abbie and Meili who were out hitting on boys!)

We went to the Tiki Room and met Aladdin and Jasmin (which felt like the longest line in the park.)


A group of us headed to the Matterhorn (since Scout was tall enough for that.) She was such a good sport for every ride that she was not tall enough for. It was fun to see her on a real roller coaster.




Then to the Autopia. This was also a blast with the younger kids.

Debbie and I bought glow sticks and lollipops at the Dollar Store before we left for this trip. We gave them to the kids after we finished dinner on the last night.


As we left for our last day in the park we got some final pictures to remember this great trip.

What a magical place!

It was such a wonderful trip with lots of great memories! We wish the whole family could have been there! Thanks to everyone for such a great time!

These pictures just made my day!!! I wish I could have been there with ALL of you! Disneyland with the Walters! Tami and I went together with the choir back in 7th/8th grade. Your Mom was a chaperone. I think I still have pictures somewhere of Tami and her "sponge" hair rollers she was wearing on the Greyhound we rode down. My kids and I have wanted to go during Halloween for the longest time. (Halloween is our 2nd favorite holiday!) I'm going to really try and wait until October for our 2010 Disney trip, instead of in April when we usually go. (kids' bday is in April). Thanks for posting all of these wonderful memories!!!

Wait a minute?! Didn't you and Debbie just go to Disneyland a few months ago?! That's just not fair! (as my children would say!)
