And evening Halloween celebration at Disneyland!

We  spotted Jesse on our way out of the park so we got a picture with her.  A perfect ending to a fabulous Halloween celebration at Disneyland!
This year we met up with Kelly, Ryan, Kari, and Steve and all their kiddies for a Halloween evening celebration at Disneyland.  They close the park to everyone except those who buy tickets to Mickey's Halloween party so as the night went on the lines got shorter and shorter and the crowd thinned out.  There were dance parties all over the park where the characters would dance with th kids.  Phia just loved this and while Presto loves music and loves to dance...he was pretty freaked out(however he insisted on standing in the thick of it all!).  The kids favorite ride was Winnie the Pooh and of course the trick or treating stations throughout the park was a HUGE hit!! Such a fun night...can't wait to go back next year!!
Princess Jasmine and Woody are ready to hit Disney!!


She was even excited on the tram ride over!!

Mama and cowboy Woody

Right when we walked in the park the Main Street parade was starting(this just so happens to be the kids most favorite parade) so we got a prime seat and enjoyed!


We've realized that while Presto is VERY outgoing, he gets very overwhelmed in crowds and apparently during parades.  He just had this blank stare poor guy!


Mama loved the parade...Presto said he did too but seemed a wee bit overwhemled 
Toon Town!


Daddy carried Phia through the casle on his shoulders


This is how Phia rode Pirates of the Caribbean



Trick or Treat time!
Presto got the hang of it right away!

"Trick or Treat"


Uh oh I feel a sugar high coming on...

Yup...the kids are wound up and real excited about their candy!
Just about the cutest picture ever!!


Even Woody gets candy stuck in his teeth:)



Presto loved Winnie the Pooh

Phia completely rockin out at the dance party!!! She jumped right in!


Phia trying to get Presto to join in.  He wanted to be in the mix but just couldn't move...
Not for this one though!!

awwww...music was way too loud for this guy


Most of the group...auntie Kelly and Jack got chopped out.

Oh these two LOVED the tea cups


The lines were so short we went on twice!!

Daddy and Presto having a BLAST!!


Bentley bear turns 1!

This year we had Bentley's birthday at Underwood Farms and thankfully the weather cooperated with us and it ended up being a PERFECT day! An extra added bonus to having a party there in October is they have their harvest/pumkin festival going on at the same time so we got to enjoy all those festivities as well.  We gave out ice cream cones to the kids so they could fill them up with food to feed the animals with.  The kids got unlimited use of all the rides on the farm during the party(the tractors were a big hit).  Our bear had a blast and we have a feeling he'll enjoy it even more next year when he can ride on some of the rides!! There's so much to do that we couldn't do it all in 2.5 hours so some of us stayed after to enjoy more of the farm:) Best birthday party venue:)
Our precious bear had his own parking space:)



We gave away sugar baby pumkins as favors:)
I had the cutest cake pops made! We had chickens, cows, and piggies:)
