Halloween

It is still a few days until Halloween is officially here but the celebrations are well underway. Monday we went to Little Monsters at Disneyland. It's a scaled down version of Mickey's Halloween Party just for Cast Members and their families. There were 18 treat stations set up throughout the park and just a handful of rides open. We went on Haunted Mansion (duh it's Halloween!) and Space Mountain. It gets dressed up as Ghost Galaxy in October. I'd never seen it changed over since the line is usually so horrendous. At the party it was only 10 minutes! Yay! It was silly scary and kind of fun but I still prefer the usual version. By the time we had hit all the stations and the 2 rides the event was over. Quick but fun! Amazingly Claire even got recognized in her costume. She's a character from a relatively obscure cartoon series that she is hooked on right now. One of the girls working a treat station just happens to be dressing up as Katara as well and knew Claire right away. She was thrilled to be noticed and I was happy that I had been able to put something together that was recognizable to someone who knew what they were looking at.

Tonight we went to visit Greatmother and Greatdaddy at their place. The residents were hosting trick or treat stations and had done tons of decorating around the different halls. We had fun walking through and admiring all the work that had been done.
