The pictures below are from D23, the Official Disney Fan Club's website (link below). There is a fabulous article written by Sarah Smith, Kick of the Holidays with a Parade. She interviews  Bill Schermerhorn, Macy’s Creative Director, who has been bringing the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade to the streets of New York each Thanksgiving for thirty years.  A must read!

2014 Osborne Spectacle of Dancing Lights at Disney's Hollywood Studios! Video and Pictures

Every year, Disney's Hollywood Studios recreates the "Osborne Family Spectacle of Lights". Thousands of lights twinkling and dancing with a backdrop of Christmas music.  Did I mention it "snows"?  It is a fabulous way to get into the holiday spirit.  

Oh yeah - straight to the "good part".  The video below is taken under the canopy of lights, this is gorgeous! Check out my pics below.

The Plaza Ice Cream Parlor on Main Street, USA in Magic Kingdom Decked Out with Holiday Flair!

Mickey Snowman!

Isn't he cute?  Snowman Mickey is perched above the entrance to the parking area at Magic Kingdom on the nights of the Very Merry Christmas Party.  I drive through on my way to and from work so I thought I would take a pic for everyone to see the cutest snowman everrrrrr.

Magic Kingdom's Holiday Window Displays!

Mickey has decked the halls at Disney's Magic Kingdom, it is FABULOUS.  Here are a few holiday photos from around the park, check back for more as these are only the highlights.  I especially love the window displays on Main Street, USA.  Inside the stores are the most amazing displays of Disney holiday merchandise.  Enjoy!!

The display above (Goofy) is in the Main Street Emporium.  Below, Daisy Duck and the boys are adorable candy store shop-keeps in the window of the Main Street Confectionery.

I love to take pictures of the swags and wreaths displayed throughout the park along with the window displays.

 

Below, toy soldiers at the entrance of the park.

 Gorgeous window display on Main Street, USA, below.

 I have seen a lot of "wreath controversy" on Twitter about these giant candle wreaths, below. I happen to adore them.  What is all the fuss about?  They are pretty!!

 Below, the Ice Cream parlor is the *winner* of the store front festive First Place Ribbon, that only I judged and only I am aware of.  It is a very exclusive prize.
