We stayed at Pixar Place for the second time and we really love this hotel!
 |
| when we walked in, it happened to be at the same time as Bing Bong's appearance in the hotel lobby - clearly a sign that it was going to be a good trip! |
 |
| we could see The Blue Umbrella from our room |
The fall/halloween decorations at Disneyland were so pretty even if the temperatures weren't fall-like at all! Despite it being much hotter than we would have preferred, I have no complaints about the weather because the days turned out to be sunny with beautiful skies (one morning was cloudy, but by the afternoon, the sun was shining)!
 |
| the cinema on Main Street had a charming show about the wonderful Sherman Brothers |
 |
| we watched the fireworks back in Galaxy's Edge and I highly recommend doing so... no crowds, a cool perspective, and Star Wars music! |
 |
| we were able to see Paint the Night a few times because it was on twice each evening! |
 |
| my favorite parade float of all time! |
 |
| we watched a great projection show on the spires of Batuu |
 |
| one of the very best things about Disneyland in the fall is the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay at Haunted Mansion! |
 |
| while I'm not the biggest fan of the movie as a whole, I absolutely love Zero! |
 |
| even though Figment is most decidedly an Epcot character, I spotted his silhouette at the Sherman Brothers tribute on Main Street |
 |
| I am obsessed with this cold brew! |
The decorations over at Disney's California Adventure were equally amazing...particularly in Cars Land!
 |
| these are memories of loved ones shared by guests |
 |
| I wrote one for my mom |
I'll wrap it up with a few random pics of decorations from Downtown Disney, the Disneyland Hotel, and the Grand Californian. If you're thinking about taking a trip to Disneyland at some point, fall is a perfect time to go!
We took a red-eye flight home, landing just after 6 am, which was in plenty of time for me to get to school! I know these quick weekend trips aren't everyone's idea of a good time, but we love them! Over the course of six weekends, we were away for four of them (San Francisco, WDW, Tampa, and Disneyland) and we'd do it again (and probably will!)!
Avalanche is happy we're home and that the next couple of weekend trips involve him because he loves nothing more than long car rides! Huge thanks to my best friend for being on duty as his emergency contact while we travel!
 |
| a beautiful sunrise welcomed us home! |
Happy Tails to you!
