Day 4
We'll Saturday was our last day at Disney and we were sad that our trip was over and it was almost time to go home. Saturday was sunny about about 20 degrees cooler that Friday. I think you guys were getting snow here at home and we were sunny and 65. We still managed to get a full day in at one of the parks. Disney's Hollywood studios was our stop. This park is more for older kids. There were still lots of shows and rides, but Luke and Alex really did not understand alot of the things at this park. However, the one thing they were crazy about was the Playhouse Disney show. If you have kids that watch Disney you probably saw the "Behind the Ears" commercial about the show. That is exactly what we went to. The whole point was to throw a surprise party for Minnie. Here are some pics of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse gang.
Handy Manny and his tools stopped by to help out.
The Little Einsteins also stopped by with Rocket.
Daddy and Alex enjoying the show.


Pooh, Darby, and Tigger also stopped in.

After the show there were a few other Playhouse characters outside so we let the kids get autographs and pics. Here is JoJo and Goliath.

Here is Alex flirting with the Disney camera guy.


This is one of the streets inside the park. That is actually a painted wall in the background but it looks so real.


Here is a photo of me and the boys playing in the Honey I Shrunk I kids set. Alex was napping so she missed out on this.
After coming out of a show we saw Al's Toy Barn from Toy Story and who was there.........BUZZ AND WOODY!!!! If you know Kade then you know how much we have watched Toy Story and how much he loves Buzz and Woody. He was Buzz two years in a row for Halloween. This was one his favorite things of the day. Here we are next to see them and Alex is playing in the shopping cart outside the store.
Here is Kade's moment! They were really great with the kids. Alex ran off before this photo was made.
Daddy and Kade standing outside of the Pizza Planet (restaurant in the movie) where we had lunch.
This was another great moment of the day. Mater and Lightning McQueen!!!! Luke could not wait to get up there. He could not even look at the camera.
We did a few rides and shows throughout the day. Little Mermaid, Star Wars, Muppets, just to name a few. Here we are on a backstage tour of the studio. This is a movie set and they are in the process of showing how they do special effects for movies. Very Cool!

Luke was freaking out at this point of the ride.
This is right outside the park as we were leaving.


Thanks for hanging in there for all 4 days! Hope everyone had a great Easter. I will update with our photos in a few days. Have a great week!

I love the characters from Cars - we were there a long time before that movie came out, but they are cool. And how awesome is it to eat in Pizza Planet? We did that too! The whole vacation looked like lots of fun.
