You just made me buy all sorts of new stuff!!!! :rotfl::rotfl:
 
Okay, so I told myself I wasn’t going to do this… That we would take the party as it came and not have a true plan. But… the closer I get, I want to make sure that we are getting in everything that we want to...

So far, the kids (DD – 12 & DS – 5) haven’t shown any interest in meeting the characters, so I haven’t added them in, but that might change in the next 37 days!

My top priorities are getting some magic shots, riding the party specific rides and the Haunted Mansion, Hallowishes, Boo To You, and doing some ToT…

I looked through some of the other itineraries and made one for us… What do you guys think? Anything glaringly ridiculous? I know that there is a lot of back and forth before the party starts, but I want to get DS on the peoplemover early to see what he thinks on the part through Space Mountain. If he doesn’t freak out then, we will all ride it later during the party… If he does, we will do some tag teaming. Also, we are taking it easy at the resort before the party, so hopefully we will be all rested up to make it to the end of the party!

When: Tuesday, September 11 / Who: DH, DD (12), DS (6) and me

3:30-4:10 Arrive at MK, go through bypass & get wristbands, hit some photopass spots if the lines aren’t too long
4:10 – 4:30 soak in atmosphere on Main Street – it’s our 1st time in the MK this trip! – and make our way to Peter Pan
4:30 – 5:00 - Peter Pan (FP 3:35-4:35)
5:00 – 5:30 – mosey over to Frontierland… maybe hit Haunted Mansion or It’s a Small World on the way
5:30 – 6:00 – BTMRR (FP 5:10 – 6:00)
6:00 – 6:30 – checkout the line for Splash Mountain and ride if it’s not too long.
6:30 – 7:15 – head towards Tomorrowland and ride the peoplemover
7:15 – 7:45 – Ride Space Mountain (potentially tag team – DH & DD on SM and DS & I on Buzz)
7:45 – 8:00 - ToT in Tomorrowland - mobile order dinner at casey’s corner
8:00 – 8:30 – Mad Tea Party
8:35 – arrive on Main Street and find a spot for the parade. We know we may not get the best spot at this point and will try to get there earlier…
Tag Team: DH to pick up dinner at Casey’s, Photopass with the kids on Main Street & Town Square, and pick up the SotMK card
9:15 – 9:45 – Boo To You Parade
9:45 - 10:30 Hallowishes on Main Street
10:30 – 10:45 – ToT on the way to Adventureland
10:50 - 11:10 – ride Pirates
11:20 – 11:40 – ride Haunted Mansion
11:50 – make our way out of the party… pick up the allergy friendly treats for DS and stop for any photopass people we see.

I really don't see too much of an issue with your plan, what I do see is you zigzagging which is going to cost you time and tire you out and by you, I'm referring to your entire group. In my experience BTMRR & Splash are generally walk-on's later in the evening. You can go from one ride to the other without dedicating 30 minutes for each. Peter Pan and Space Mountain hold the longest wait. I'm not sure if the new enhancements at Space is important to you considering you've never been on this ride how would you know the difference?

I highly recommend you secure a FP for Space if possible and check to see if you can move Peter Pan to 5:30-6pm with the intention to secure Space Mountain at 3:30-4:30 and Buzz 4:30-5:30.

I like these plushies better than the ones supplied by the florist. I guess I will have piece together my own package with the oh so cute coordinating jammies!
 
Here is my official(ish) itinerary! Feel free to add it to the list.

Tuesday, Sept. 25 / Who: DH, DS3, DD1, and me

3:30-4:10 Arrive at MK, go through bypass & get wristbands and head to Pooh.
4:15-4:35 Winnie the Pooh FP+ 3:25-4:25
4:45-5:00 Peter Pan FP+ 4:30-5:30
5:10-5:30 Magic Carpets of Aladdin (if we can squeeze it in)
5:45-6:00 Jungle Cruise FP+ 5:30-6
6:00-6:30 Grab food
6:30-7:15 Captain Jack Sparrow
Tag Team: DH gets a cool snack
7:20-7:45 Pirates of the Carribean
7:55-8:20 Haunted Mansion or Tea Cups then quickly hit the scream-o-ween ball
8:30-9:35 Boo-To-You Parade on Main Street - We plan to find a spot early since we have a stroller. We will tag team for trick or treating.
9:40-10:30 Hallowishes on Main Street

We will probably leave after that. But, if the kids are sleeping in the stroller, my DH and I may try to knock out some rides that we want to do. We also really want to do some magic shots, so we need to work those in too.

If you're planning on using a stroller add 5/10 minutes. You have to park it, unlock the kids, go through the queue, ride the ride, lock the kids back in... this is time consuming so be prepared. And do NOT leave anything inside your stroller!

3:30-4:15 Arrive at MK, go through bypass & get wristbands and head to Pooh.
4:20-4:40 Winnie the Pooh FP+ 3:25-4:25
4:50-5:10 Peter Pan FP+ 4:30-5:30
5:20-5:35 Magic Carpets of Aladdin (if we can squeeze it in) - Usually a walk on :-)
5:45-6:00 Jungle Cruise FP+ 5:30-6 - Use mobile ordering while in line or during the ride.
6:05-6:40 Grab food - Be prepared if you don't find a table.
6:45-7:15 Captain Jack Sparrow
Tag Team: DH gets a cool snack & Restroom break
7:20-7:45 Pirates of the Carribean
7:55-8:20 Haunted Mansion or Tea Cups or Scream-o-ween ball - No time, it's one or the other.
8:30-9:35 Boo-To-You Parade on Main Street - We plan to find a spot early since we have a stroller. *See Below.
Tag Team: Trick or Treating
9:40-10:30 Hallowishes on Main Street
10:40-10:50 Pick up SotMK Card at the Main Street Firehouse See: Post #438

*Parade on Main Street: @Cluelyss recommends Tip: To get Front Row for the First Parade at Frontierland I’d recommend at least 45 minutes to secure spots, 1hr. if Sold Out and at least 30 minutes for the Second Parade. For Main Street 1hr 20-30 minutes if Sold Out. You're allowing 45 minutes, I'm not sure that's enough time. Keep your eye on the crowds!

Fair Warning: Last year a fellow DISer reported her Fairy Wings were stolen from her stroller. Do not leave ANYTHING inside your stroller. :flower3:

:thanks: to @FoxC63 - not only I am super stoked about my gift card that I already received (talk about FAST!), but I had an absolute blast playing the game. You and your DH ROCK!

Thank you so much for playing! I had to go back and read the comments, you all were so funny! Glad you got your mullah and I'll let my hubby know! Thank you! :hug:

I know right!?! Loving this new merchandise! The plush Trick or Treat bags with the designs on the ears are such a cute addition!
 
:stir: I think I'm all caught up with the itineraries, if I've missed someone please drop me a note! Thank you.
