Mickey's Halloween Party

This is a picture of our hotel courtyard. The hotel has about 4 courtyards, all with different movie themes. We were lucky enough to score a room in the "Toy Story" section.

T LOVED it!

Dot and I loved it too, b/c it was conveniently close to the restaurant/lobby. What's neat is that there is also a tot lot nearby, that T enjoyed playing in when we were spending time at the hotel. The first night, she inserted herself into another family's fun. It was another chinese adoptive family, who had a little girl named Jordan. T loved playing with her, and Jordan's older brothers and sisters. I'm always a little surprised to see all of the adoptive families at disney. There are always loads. I love it.

By Tuesday night, it was warming up enough that we didn't need our jean jackets, yet it was still cool. Like disney was air conditioned.

T is particularly thrilled with her costume, after learning that Sophie Perikles has the same one for halloween. They'll be trick or treating together, and T is so excited that she can't stand it.
Once we entered the park, we made a bee-line to toon town to touch up T's face paint, then we were off to fanstasy land again. T enjoyed playing in the Pooh area, and was thrilled to have a little one-on-one quality time with her idol Ariel. We also were able to get a few rounds in on Its a small world, before heading off to dinner.

In honor of the big event, I wore a bat headband. Tried to con Dot into wearing the princess-bride mickey ears that we bought T, but she refused. We were getting enough odd looks from people, when T would yell "Doddy", and hug my sissy. God knows the looks we'd get if she had the bride ears on...like all the honeymooning couples. We just have to laugh.

I really enjoyed the pictures and "my" trip to Disney. Glad you're home -safe and sound. Luv Ya!!!

A marvelous plan was made in the stars,
to create a miracle across the ocean so far....
Then entwine and weave all the hopes and labor,
it would take to bring us this joy called "Taylor"....
Now three lives are blessed and somewhere in the stars,
the planners are smiling, as we all are.
