Trip Strategy...Help

[Schubert001]

I am planning a trip for October 20-25 for me, husband, 3 yr. twin boys, my parents, 14 yr sister and friend. We are staying 5 nights, 6 days with 5 day park hopper pass in Wilderness Villas. Does this sound like a doable schedule or too packed, not packed enough:

Day one (we are arriving the night before and staying offsite)
MK
Dinner at chef Mickey
Return to MK

Day two
MGM
Afternoon parade
Dinner 50's Cafe
MGM till closing

Day three
8:30 breakfast with Donald at Animal Kingdom
Animal Kingdom till closing
Dinner at Whispering Canyon
Relax at hotel and watch water parade and fireworks

Day four
Epcot
Dinner at Coral Reefs
Propably leave afer dinner
Swim/relax at hotel

Day five
Magic Kingdom
I would most likely leave after lunchtime with the kids to return for naps back at the hotel.
Dinner at Liberty Tavern
Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party 6-12

Day Six
Hotel/Boardwalk/Go Home


Does this sound like enough time in the parks? I have never had to plan this trip for all these different ages, groups before and they have pretty much left it to me and say whatever you plan is fine... any input would be great. I figure, I can always leave with my boys if they get cranky and meet up with everyone later, but I don't want to miss the fun either.

The teenage girls might want to do their own things but they can still go to the same parks as the rest of the gang. Walkie talkies or specific meeting times can help with that. Otherwise, it sounds fine.
Take care

Why are you buying Park hoppers when you arent going to hop?
