Celebrating Halloween at Disneyland!!!

We had heard about "Mickey's Halloween Party" for years and always thought it would be so fun. So, this is the year we finally decided to spend Halloween at Disneyland! It truly was our funnest Halloween yet! I highly recommend it and can't wait to come and do it again!
 We invited both of my sister's and their families to come with us, but Ju and Jaxey were the only ones that could join us. Next time, I hope that we can all go together, but we had an absolute blast with Ju and Jax!
 Here are some hotel pics right before we headed out to Disneyland. Ju is Mrs. Jack Sparrow and I am Vanellope von Schweetz from Wreck-It Ralph:)
 Jax is Iron Man!
 We were sooo excited the entire walk! We couldn't wait to get to this much anticipated event! 





Putting the vibe out;)

 Since, "Mickey's Halloween Party" is a special event, we had to have special tickets and couldn't enter the park until 3pm. We were worried that we wouldn't get our money's worth because we couldn't be there all day, but we were pleasantly surprised! We were able to walk on to every ride!!! It was AMAZING!!! The best experience I have ever had at Disneyland! We rode more rides that night than we normally could do in two days! Not only that, but they had trick-or-treating stations all over the park and the funnest Halloween dance party EVER!!! All of the boys and us adults LOVED dancing at the party! One of the funnest and most memorable nights I have experienced with my family for sure!!! As cheesy as it sounds, it was a magical night at the happiest place on earth! 
 It was SO fun to be dressed up! Everyone was, which made it that much more fun! I surprisingly had a lot of people ask if they could take their picture with me like I was a "Vanellope" character that works there at Disneyland! There was this one boy that kept following me around yelling out, "oh my gosh, it is Vanellope!" like he was star struck or something! Sooo crazy, but so fun to just dress up like a kid again and just have complete and utter fun! We loved it so much and so did my kids! We were all in heaven! Such an amazing Halloween!!! One we will remember forever:)
Jax (Iron Man), Dane (Wreck-It Ralph), Logi (Pirate), and Beau (Fix-It Felix)
Love my three pirates!
 Everyone thought Ju was married to Benny since she fit nicely in the pirate family:) 

 This is how the kids looked the entire night!!!


 Disneyland Day Two was not as magical as the Halloween party and was surprisingly crazy busy! However, we still had a blast! 
Beau was in a mood, but he still had fun!
Such a cute little bug even when he is sooo grumpy!
 We spent most of the day at California Adventure. Logi is getting so big!!!
Love Dane's scrunched up nose smile:)
 Beau Beau would not look!!!
 This was the best shot we could get!
 Jaxey kept saying to Dane, "You're my cousin and my friend!" 
 LOVE how they are holding hands!!! Sweetest thing ever!!!
Cute little stinkers!



 Right before we dropped on "The Tower of Terror"
 Hands down, my most favorite ride! Love how Logan is being Mr. Cool Guy with his hands behind his head:)
 Daner's look of terror and how he is death gripping the sides is so classic!!! Poor guy was terrified on "Splash Mountain"
 Tea Cups!
 Beau was pretty much done at this point

 We LOVE Disneyland and had an incredible time! It was so fun to have Ju and Jax with us! Next time, we hope that the Ropers and Chris will come too! So fun! 
Reidy was a dream baby the whole time as per usual:) How did we get so lucky! He loved his first trip to Disneyland and his first Halloween! Such a sweet little love bug! Can't believe he is 3 months old already!?!?!
