We have been several times during the first week in December, and I have found it to be not too crowded. Usually, during the day, the parks aren't crowded, and the weather is great. The thing about MVMCP is that is is a very special event, and there are many locals who come to that as well as those who are on vacation. The do limit sales of tickets, but it does get crowded, and usually sells out. At least you are going on a Thursday, it shouldn't be too bad. Weekends are always sold out, and usually several weeks in advance. I am sure you won't have any problem getting on rides, or doing what ever else you want.
