Happy Halloween Disney style

I'm the room parent in both kids' Halloween parties today... So I thought I'd share a Halloween story before I go to bed and rest up for our spooky day. I wanted to share a few more stories about the awesome Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party we attended last week.The fun started the moment we walked out of the elevator of our hotel. A man asked if he could post with Cameron because he thought his costume was so great.We headed to the park where we got our official party armband and I gave the kids HUGE Disney-themed Halloween trick or treat bags. Jordan was especially excited about that.We met up with one of our former students who is currently an intern with Disney Sports. She brought us gifts of super cool Mickey hats. I got a new Minnie Mouse hat, Jordan got a Tinkerbell, Cameron got a Woody from Toy Story Mickey hat and Randy got a Goofy Mickey hat. Super fun.We knew many of the kids attending MNSSHP (that's the shorter way to say the name of the party) wouldn't be using the big kid rides, so we headed to the Buzz Lightyear ride and all kinds of fun. Next stop: Space Mountain. But before we did that, we snagged a quick picture with Buzz Lightyear and trick or treated a little. Plus, we had to drop by a dance party in Tomorrowland. It was AWESOME. Cameron was totally into it. Jordan was a bit more hesitant. But they both enjoyed watching Stitch, Pluto and Goofy dance in space costumes.We loved the Halloween ride emptiness. Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad were practically empty for us to ride. We LOVE both roller coasters. Listening to Jordan scream "AWESOME" at the top of her lungs is a joy that only is explained by being there. She's a brave kid. I love it.We ended the night enjoying the fireworks by the castle and then made sure we had a great spot for the parade by sitting down along the street in front of the castle. While we waited, we got to watch a show performed by many of the well known Disney villans. When the parade started, we watched the headless horseman ride through the streets and then a really fun parade. It ended with Goofy and others handing out candy. Mickey Mouse lollipops? Yes please!We loved the party... Even though Jordan fell asleep on her dad's lap between the fireworks and parade. She made it through and we have SO many Halloween memories thanks to that fun night. I can't wait to see what kind of fun we can have tonight for the "real" Halloween!
