Vacation Day 3

After we had booked our trip to Orlando in May, we found out we were going to be down there the first weekend of Disney Hollywood's Studios Star Wars Weekend.  Michael was over the moon for this and was actually excited for a Disney Park!  Woohoo!!

What we saw on the stage when we walked in... It was all pretty cool!

The stormtroopers were making conversation with the audience and 
.telling funny jokes.  It was entertaining....but...

Daddy found out we could meet Chewbacca so off to that queue line we went. 

Somebody is happy to be in a Disney Park!

AJ was really excited to see Chewy, but when we got closer in for the picture, he was not having it.  Poor kid was scared out of his mind while Chloe was intrigued and couldn't stop staring!

Said yummy cupcakes!
Yup - they tasted as delish as they looked!  

Lunch time!

We met up with a visitor while walking around the park. 

My new friend!

And AJ was still not having it.

_MG_3476
You might have thought we were torturing him with how loud he was screaming and crying. 
I felt terrible. 

_MG_3482
But his mood quickly turned around when we found a 'Honey, I Shrunk the Kids' 
playground area for him to run off some steam in. 

_MG_3496
Look at that smile - pure happiness.

We at least got AJ to not cry and not look scared for this photo with Mickey!

Someone was a bit tired after all the fun he had today!

On our way out, Dziadzi and Baba volunteered to watch the kiddos so 
Daddy and I could take a ride on the Tower of Terror and Aerosmith's Rockin' 
Roller Coaster.  Thank you guys - we appreciated it so much!
