Disney: Day 6

Friday was the day Chris had been waiting for all week! Star Wars Weekends at Hollywood Studios! :)

When we arrived at Hollywood Studios this is what we found standing on the roof of the entrance:
Star Wars music was playing, there were posters everywhere and every once in a while you would hear those storm troopers shout out orders to people! Chris was in HEAVEN!

Once inside, we were handed a special map for the events going on around the park and off Chris, Greg and I went with Kate to find some of Chris's Star Wars heroes while Grandma and Grandad took Daniel to ride the Toy Story ride again (Daniel's favorite!).

Chris meeting Pabloo...the Ewok...

Meeting Luke Skywalker...Daniel was back for this one and was telling him all about his hat!

Chris's favorite part....meeting Darth Vader! We waited an hour to meet this guy!!!!

After meeting Darth, we managed to meet back up with the rest of the family just in time for the Star Wars parade....Jedi Mickey led things off!
After the parade, Chris really wanted to meet Jedi Mickey but he actually ended up meeting Darth Goofy (love his boxers!) and Storm Trooper Donald....fun!
On our way out of the park, Chris and I met Ready Freddy Fiddlesticks who claimed he was waiting for a bus! Chris thought he was serious at first and was so confused! But once he figured out that he was an actor all was good and we were able to play along for a little while!
After spending a little time at Hollywood Studios, we park-hopped over to Magic Kingdom where we did a little relaxing and then hit the rides! We had just a little time at Magic Kingdom before we needed to head over to the Grand Floridian for dinner with Cinderella!

Hanging with Grandad....

Waiting for the train on Main Street...what a great view of the park! Look at that Castle!

When we arrived at the Grand Floridian, we changed Kate into her princess dress that Grandma Marshall made her...she looked beautiful! :) Here she is on the grand staircase (that's what the boys kept calling it!)....

This dinner was beautiful...Prince Charming, Cinderella, Lady Tremaine (the stepmother), Antastasia and Drizella (the stepsisters) were all there...Prince Charming told Daniel that he looked like a little Peter Pan! :) Daniel was THRILLED! Chris thought it was neat meeting a prince as well as a princess!

About 45 minutes into dinner, they announced a waltz and Prince Charming and Cinderella led it off then they all branched out and choose a child to dance with. Cinderella chose Daniel which was so fun and sweet!!!!! He had a great time!!!!
When they were done dancing, Cinderella gave him a BIG hug and then kissed him on the cheek!!!! :) He blushed when I told him she had left lipstick on him! :)
When dinner was over, it was time to go back to Magic Kingdom where we hung out and rode more rides like It's a Small World, Winnie the Pooh (it was the ten year anniversary of its opening!) and the ride Daniel was so anxious to ride....The TEA CUPS!!!!!

It was such a fantastically busy day....the kids got to see Star Wars characters and Princesses all in one day...where else can you do that in the world? :) It was a lot of fun....makes me smile when I think about it!

Next up: Day 7 at Magic Kingdom....our last day....
