Today is November 18th. It’s a special day for the Disney family, and it’s extra special for this Disney-obsessed family. Our Special Day My middle son joined our family through adoption. We always celebrate his “Gotcha Day” (the day we “got” him). To celebrate we let him choose a family activity that we can all enjoy with him to commemorate his special day. Surprise! One year, he chose a trip to Walt Disney World and this Disney nut mom couldn’t refuse. So years ago, on November 18th, he proudly wore his “I’m Celebrating” button. In fact, we all wore buttons!

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is a must-do for any Disney fan. Believe it or not, I had to be convinced. You see, Christmas is my favorite holiday – and favorite time to visit. So I always pushed for November-December visits. But Halloween is one of my husband’s favorite holidays. And when he recommended we visit in October one year, how could I say no? Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is a fun way to experience Magic Kingdom. The decorations. The special shows. The treats. But it’s only offered for a short time each year and you don’t Continue reading Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party Bucket List→

You’ve paid a lot of money for your ticket. It’s a short amount of time to cram everything in. You want to get the most out of Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is a hard ticket event held through mid August until October 31st. Typically the first day of the party and the last few days (especially Halloween night!) sell out. In between, the closer you get to Halloween night, the more expensive the tickets become. We love to attend in September when usual crowd levels are lower, it’s starting to feel like Continue reading Get The Most Out Of Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party→

It’s Always A Great Idea To Visit Walt Disney World During The Holidays

Posted on by — 2 Comments ↓

It’s not too late! There are still rooms available during the Christmas Holiday Season (early November – first week of January) at Walt Disney World. Should you go? Yes! Abso-Mickey-lutely! Without a doubt, the holiday season is my favorite time at the World. The Christmas decorations are up. The weather is dryer. And the crowds can be at a minimum. My birthday happens to fall in the first week of December, so for my 40th my husband suggested we go. We had been at various other times of the year, but never for my birthday. We were homeschooling our daughter, Continue reading It’s Always A Great Idea To Visit Walt Disney World During The Holidays→

With Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party in full swing (there’s one tomorrow night! Get schedule here!) I thought you all might be looking for ways to get the most out of this hard ticket event. Ticket’s start at $74 and go up, depending on the night. We have attended many, many times with children of all ages. It’s my daughter’s favorite Disney party. She had her first trick-or-treat experience at the party and now, at 24, it’s still her preferred way to usher in the fall season.

Don’t Miss Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Parade!

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

One of the biggest reasons that we pay extra for Disney’s special parties is the “unlimited FastPass” atmosphere. No, FastPasses are NOT available during the party but the lines sure seem like they’re FastPass lines. And our ride-junkie family loves walking right on to our favorite attractions. So, we typically skip the parade and shows to take full advantage of even shorter lines. But not when it comes to the Halloween party! Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Parade is a MUST for the Mouseterplanner family! This is a hard ticket event and popular nights sell out quickly. Get your tickets Continue reading Don’t Miss Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Parade!→
