Sherry, Happy Birthday from two of your favorite people and me too!

Thank you, Rita!! I love that photo of M&M in their Halloween garb!!

Happy Birthday Sherry! I hope that you bring us good luck today, and we get some HalloweenTime info.

I have a question about the Happy Haunts tour. Is it worth it if you can't ride most of the rides?

Thank you, VictoriaAndMatt! I see my birthday and the related Birthday Boogie-ing has not yielded any results for us on the HalloweenTime front.

Well, does anyone else have a birthday coming up in the next couple of days that we can use to channel the mighty HalloweenTime forces for the purpose of info?

I'll still probably lurk a little, but it looks like we will reschedule our Halloween trip to Christmas time. My third child is now 3 and the added cost of the party isn't flying with me anymore. I just can't imagine going for the season and not hitting the party and seeing the fireworks....

Oh, so no Halloween trip this year? Well, at least you are giving it up to go at Christmastime, so that'll be great too. It is very expensive any way you slice it, this is true.

But even though you're not going for HalloweenTime this year, you still have info to contribute here from your past experiences, so don't leave us completely!!

Not unless my Dad decides to throw around some $$ for me and my kiddos (he is paying DSis and DNephew's ways since he promised to take them and then flaked and would rather NOT GO!!)

I can't stay away. I love Halloween, but would rather miss out entirely than not be able to do everything I want this trip. Luckily (at least for now) all the Disney Xmas magic is included with park admission. It'll be a really special "first trip" for my nephew.

Woohoooooo! Got my party tix in the mail today I am disappointed that they're not even halloween looking, but oh well.

Thanks for the info I'm Mikey.

 

[iKristin]

I want info!!!!!!

 

[Belle Ella]

Aw, I was hoping Sherry would get a special birthday treat today!

ETA: Hey!! When did I get to 4,000 posts!!

 

[AmyPond]

I'm hoping they get stuff up this weekend since they should have the park hours listed on their website for the first weekend of HalloweenTime. I'd think they'd have the info up to go along with the hours.

I've been wondering if maybe that's what they were waiting for. For it to go up on the calendar at the same time.

Thanks for that!

Disney's official site still says that kids 12 and under can wear costumes for Halloween Time. (Interestingly, it now says "Also, Guests dressed as Disney Characters are advised to not pose for pictures or sign autographs for other Guests." That sounds different from outright saying that they can't....)

[tinksdreamwishes]

soo what kind of costume are you going to wear?

 

[srauchbauer]

soo what kind of costume are you going to wear?

since we can wear customes during the pre-party (that's what we call we) I think we might go as a clown family. If I get my act together and start sewing.

It's beginning to look a lot like Halloween: went into the party store last night and they were putting out halloween stuff.

 

[srauchbauer]

It's official airfare was purchased this morning. Time to start planning (okay continue planning)

 

[BELLEDOZER]

I originally wasn't going to wear a costume, until the local Liquidation World decided to go out of business, and scored a Canucks hockey jersey really cheap, and a Canucks hat. I found matching earrings, so am going as a Canadian Hockey Fan, or a Canuckle Head (as we call the team). Comfortable, but still in costume so to speak. Intend to poke some good natured fun at us Canadians while I'm down (everyone else does anyway), and have a bit of fun with it.

 

[GrandBob]

ETA: Hey!! When did I get to 4,000 posts!!

CONGRATULATIONS!

 

[Belle Ella]

CONGRATULATIONS!

Aww, shtank you!!

OK, so Halloweentime is getting closer! I officially get to make my first PS tomorrow. That makes everything seem more real. Now I just wish I could buckle down and decide on what I want to do.

 

[Arizona Rita]

I will be wearing the same thing I wore 2 years ago, the closest I can get to an Indiana Jones, or as the scarecrow called me, "Indiana Joan" costume.
Will post photo later.
Have no idea what the kids are doing yet.

Not the greatest of photos and I still need the whip! But you get the idea so if you see me say hi!

 

[iKristin]

I don't think I'm gonna do a costume, makes it hard for rides. Maybe I'll just wear a POTC shirt and the Mickey pirate ears with maybe an eye patch haha. Simple costume

I like that idea. Defintiely show a photo!

Man, makes me think of the Disney inspired costume a friend of mine did I think last year. A couple of years before she made this incredible Optimus Prime costume out of cardboard and then last year (or the year before) she and her friend made Woody & Buzz costumes for Halloween. I have to go find the picture I have of them. It was just awesome.

I agree... I'll get a cute tee and wear some ears!! DD will be dressed up... not sure whether it will be a princess or fairy. Last year she really wanted to be Fawn but only the Uk had really cool Fawn costumes... maybe it'll come here this year.
