Halloween






Every year for Halloween we have a Fleming Family Party, and this year Alan's dad was in charge of it and he assigned Alan and his brother to put it together. So were able to make it pretty successful. This year we had it on friday, Oct. 30. It was at Alan's brother's house and we had food, games, face painting, and a pinata. Everyone usually dresses up and we have contest as to who has the best costume, most original, cutest and scariest. Overall, we had a really fun time! For our costume we were the rubix cube. Alan's brother teases me about doing the rubix cube so we made costumes for fun. I took a box and painted Alan's to be the one that was all jumbled up and mine was the finished product. It was pretty funny!









Then on Halloween Alan and I went with my father and mother in law and Alan's brother and wife and their son to Cheesecake Factory and then back to my in laws house for some trick or treating. My niece and nephews were able to go to some house to get candy. It was fun to see them enjoy walking to houses and get candy!

Disneyland

First we had breakfast with Chip N' Dale



Then we went to Disneyland....


When we first got into disneyland we saw Pinocchio so we had to get a picture with him. We were told after we took a picture with him that it was really rare to see him out taking pictures, and signing autographs with people. So that was pretty cool to see.

After taking a picture with Pinocchio we went and rode some rides. The first ride we went on was Dumbo.My niece and I rode together on the dumbo ride, and she really seemed to enjoye the ride..



After Dumbo we went on Mr. Toad's ride, and my ALL time favorite ride Peter Pan! After Those two rides we went over and rode the New Finiding Nemo ride. It was really cool. You went down into a submarine and saw and heard a little bit of the nemo movie. The ride was a little to long, but it was cute.


After the "Finding Nemo" ride then a few of us went and rode the go-cart ride. The kids really enjoyed that ride beacuse they give them fake Drivers licences.


Then after riding the go-carts we thought it would be fun to take the kids over to watch the 3-d movie "Honey I shrunk the Audience." The kids got scared but the adults loved it! :)



After watching the movie we headed over to Mickey's house to say "hello!"


By this time we were all getting tired and wanted to say our energy for the next day so we went on the tea cups and then headed to the Hotel.

When we got to the hotel we took a nap, and then Berne and Cindy offered to take the kids so we could go ride the adult rides and have some fun on our own. We rode space mountain (my 2nd favorite ride at disneyland), star tours, and Indiana Jones. We waited for space mountain for 90 mins!! I had never been on Star tours before it was actually a cool ride. Then we when we got back to the hotel we went to bed!!
The next morning we woke up and went back to disneyland


The first thing we did was head over to where you meet the princesses. The princesses are very kind to the little kids and actually spent time talking to them. My niece brought Cinderella back her wond because she left it at her house when she came to her birthday party :) It was really cute!

Then we saw more Characters......



That night was a parade and fireworks so between the parade and fireworks we rode the buzz light year ride.





The next morning, Alan and I woke up early to go the Disneyland before it even opened. We were able to enter the park 1 hour before everyone else. We were able to ride space mountain, the manahorn, snow white, and Pinocchio, and the manahorn again because the park even opened.
Then when the park opened we wrote Pirates of the Carribean! Then we went over to california adventures and rode screaming, and soaring over California. OH my goodness if you get the chance to do Screamin' oh man .... do it! It was sooo scary but an amazing roller coaster.
Then we were done for the day. I was done being at disneyland, and so we went back to the hotel room took naps, and then went out to eat and then went to bed for the night :)
The next morning we woke up and had breakfast and headed home. We really had a fun time. I thought with there being 17 of us and Yes, we did stay together most of the time we did do a lot and saw a lot.
