Hollywood Studios-Star Wars Weekend!

This was the first thing we noticed as we were walking up to the park, you can imagine the excitement of seeing a "real" Storm Trooper on the roof of the entrance!
The boys with Woody & Bullseye





Pictures with Captain Rex, Ahsoka & Commander Cody, we kind of stumbled across this, got into line and then our FAVORITE Captain Rex came out, the boys were so giddy & in awe of the characters...Blake & I couldn't believe all of the adults behaving the same way!


Riding on Chewbacca's vehicle



Having lunch with Special Agent Oso, Handy Manny & the Little Einsteins!





This chic was some Star Wars woman that was walking around and giving everyone the creeps, the boys are still talking about her today!

Posing with Jango Fett, Luke wouldn't smile, he was in "serious shooting" mode







Exhausted!


The Parade, Toy Story was definitely a highlight!


We were able to go to a Playhouse Disney show, they had puppets for all of the boys favorite characters, it was very cute & air conditioned!


Pictures with the Star Wars


We had been waiting the entire trip to go to Hollywood Studios because we knew that it was the last day of Star Wars weekends there so we were getting literally the last opportunity to meet some of our favorite characters. The boys LOVE Star Wars, although they have never seen the movie...just hearing about it from other kids & reading library books about them is enough to hook the boys!

The day couldn't have been more crowded and the heat was almost unbearable (98 degrees & high humidity). We had a good time despite the craziness and were able to go on the Toy Story Mania ride we'd heard about, as well as have Blake & Chase go on a simulated Star Wars ride. If you ask the boys if they had fun on their vacation, this is the day they talk about, no mention of Mickey Mouse, just Captain Rex!
