I'm so sad that I won't be doing a Halloween Time trip this year. The first time since 2006 that won't be going. I am really missing the giant Mickey pumpkin about now!! I keep seeing "Happy Halloween" messages on the Food Network and it's making me want to rush to DLR and revel in the pumpkin-ness of it all!! I thought for sure I was going to pull it off, but after DLR sent me a tempting PIN code offer for the hotels (which is only good in November and up to December 16th, but not good in October), I felt that was a sign to stick with a Christmas trip this year. Still, I am feeling the loss. I really do love Halloween Time.

However, it won't be long before Halloween Time 2011 rolls around (time will fly by, as it did this year), and I am not going to miss it. I'm getting an AP this year, which will still be valid then, and I want to do the MHP next year - wherever it ends up. I want to head to the Round-Up, eat pumpkin-shaped cookies - all of it.

So....I need to see more photos to ease my pain. We don't have nearly enough photos in this thread!! The season is coming to an end in one week - we need to go out with a bang! A picture bonanza!!

Wow, I just realized I never posted all of mine! They aren't too exciting and I don't have any MHP photos to share, but I've got some for sure. I should do that now while it's on my mind.

ETA: I'll be posting my photos with different categories in different posts. Makes it easier for me to remember

I've got lots of pictures from MHP, but they're mostly of us acting out scenes. There are a few of the cavalcade that I can post if anyone wants to see them. I'll try to get more when I go the 29th and 30th.

I finally got to try one of these apples! Although they were a lot for me to take in it once. I barely ate my half, but at least I had someone to share it with. Candy apples will one day be my downfall.

KBelle5 - Yes, post whatever you have!! I need to see lots and lot of photos!


Yay, Jazz finally posted more photos!! Woo hoo! I so love those Mickey pumpkin apples - even though I would not buy one to eat (I'm more tempted by the cupcakes), I love looking at them because they are so darn adorable! The designs they come up with for all the holiday apples (they even had a cute Easter apple) are really clever! I think that seeing those apples may be one of the things I miss most about Halloween Time this year!

I'm just now realizing that those pumpkin ears look slightly different than they did for the last couple of years. Maybe they looked like that last year and I didn't see it, but in 2007 and 2008 they looked...uh, 'cheaper,' maybe? They look a little better-made now, I think.

I have ones from last year, and they look exactly the same as the ones this year. I think the main difference between these and the first incarnation of Mickey pumpkin ears is that these have the glow in the dark swirlies on the ears and the glow in the dark face. The older ones didn't have that.

Just got back from our Halloween trip on Thursday and all my photos are finally uploaded. I will post a few of the characters' costumes today!

I will post some of my favorite pumpkins another time. Maybe later today if I get bored!

I think next time I'll go for the cupcakes. But all the treats are so cute that you don't want to eat them, huh?

It might be the glow in the dark part, but then again one photo is taken through a window and the other is a close up. It's strange how the same object can look different in two separate photos.

You're right - they most definitely did not have the swirlies in the past! I would have to see a photo of the pumpkin ears from 2007/2008, but it seems like I recall the pumpkin part of the ears looked a little cheaper, too. They didn't seem like the usual Disney standard of quality ears, but rather, ears they threw together in a pinch to have something for Halloween. I could be totally imagining it, though. It was a while ago! I think the glow-in-the-dark element of it actually improved the overall look of the ears, then!! I think it's good that the look seems to be better over the years, rather than heading in the opposite direction and looking worse.

BTW, I'll get all the new photo posts (mine inlcuded) into the ToC tonight before I go in to work.

Wait, I'm not looking forward to that ...

Donald in his pumpkin costume is like the cutest thing in the world. I wish they would have Daisy out in her Halloween finery too, but Daisy is pretty rare as it is.

 

[Diznygrl]

Well, I Googled and found a pic of ye olden pumpkin ears for comparison. I definitely like the current ones better.
