Our Dream Disney Trip, Days 4-5: Hollywood Studios and Home!

I'm almost sad to blog day four of our amazing trip because that means it's over! :( We had a wonderful last day at Disney! We got up around 7am, and we got the girls dressed and ready for Hollywood Studios! We took the bus from our hotel, and we got to the park right before it opened. 
Doesn't it look like a beautiful day?! As soon as we walked in the gates, we were greeted with the Frozen soundtrack and SNOW! :) 

 It's hard to see, but it snowed for fifteen minutes, and it was incredible Disney Magic! :) The girls LOVED it! :)

We headed straight back for our breakfast reservations at Hollywood and Vine (also known as Disney Jr's Play and Dine) Restaurant! (Side note: I originally had reservations for three character meals and one non-character meal, but because of cost, I ended up canceling two of those, so this was only our second real sit-down meal since we got to Disney!) 
While we waited for them to call us to our table, Felicity perused our activities for the day! :)

 My oldest beauty! :)

This breakfast and character(s) experience did NOT disappoint! The breakfast buffet was literally the longest buffet I had ever seen. It kept going and going and going! Felicity LOVED the Mickey waffles and eggs, while Avaree loved the eggs and bacon! Daddy enjoyed the biscuits and gravy, and Mommy loved the fresh fruit and hash browns! Everyone was happy! (Another side note: Felicity was free everywhere we went! She had her own plate and drink and everything, and she was free! That's pretty awesome of Disney.) 

 To top off our YUMMY breakfast, we got to sing and dance with (as well as meet and take pictures with..) Doc McStuffins, Sofia the First, Handy Manny, and Jake! The girls were beside themselves! 

 Sofia!!!

 There's her smile!

Ave and Manny!

 Felicity wanted to hold Manny's hand! :)

 Felicity says, "Hi Doc!"

 Mickey waffle!

Felicity grinning at the characters as they danced! She danced her little heart out! 

 Felicity had a BLAST singing and dancing to all the Disney Jr songs!

 Avaree loved Jake!

Avaree and Doc! 

(Aunt Shan, Ave wanted to take this pic for Evy!!)  

The girls didn't want to leave! Felicity just sat down by the signs of the characters! haha :)

 She wanted to hug Doc! :)

After our breakfast fun, we headed to the back of the park for the Frozen Sing Along with Elsa, Anna, and Kristoff! This show was absolutely incredible. Elsa, Anna, AND Kristoff were there, AND it snowed all over the theater during "Let it Go!" I looked at B at one point and just started crying! Avaree was SO happy, Felicity was SO entranced, and I just can't tell you how wonderful it was to experience that together! :)

 Do you see the snow?? Now, imagine EVERYONE (including lots of little voices) singing "Let it Go" at the top of their lungs!!! It was incredible!!!!

Next, we went straight to Disney Junior Live on Stage! Puppets gave us a live version of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and then Jake, Sofia and Doc came to visit! :) There were also bubbles, snow, and gold d'blooms! :) This was one of my favorite moments too!

The girls dancing to the "hot dog dance" during the show! :)

 After the show, we headed down to Pixar Palace and road Toy Story Mania on our fast pass! There were SO many people in line for stand by, and we just walked right in! (If you're going to Disney soon, research what to use your fast passes for!! It saves SO much time!) I didn't get any pictures in Toy Story, but Daddy and Ave loved it, Felicity screamed, and I was barely able to make it through as it went in circles! haha!

Next, we headed to the back lot to meet Sully and Mike!

 After that, we gave the girls drinks and snacks from our cooler, and we headed to the air conditioning inside the Art of Animation Building! Daddy and Ave met Frozone and Mr. Incredible!

 Mr. Incredible danced with Avaree as if she was the only little girl in the whole place! 

While they were in line for the character greetings, Felicity, Baby and I found a corner, and she went right to sleep. One would think that this was a brilliant idea, and it was, until I tried to get up. Both of my legs (whole legs and feet) were completely asleep!! It was hilarious to try to get up! :) At least Felicity got a good nap in the A/C while Daddy and Ave went exploring to see how the Disney creators drew the characters!!

 After one got a nap and one explored, we headed over to use another fast pass for Star Tours! While they enjoyed that ride, Felicity and I got ourselves a treat and found some shade! She got a strawberry fruit popsicle, and Mommy got a coke! :) haha 

Next up, we went to an incredible production of Beauty and the Beast!!!! 

(Side note: the girls did GREAT at sitting through three thirty-minute shows in one day!)

 We LOVED Beauty and the Beast! I brought out the big gun snacks, and everyone was happy! 

 Finally, we head to Indiana Jones for Daddy! :) 

We did a few other things that I didn't take pictures of, but it was getting really hot, and we were all getting tired, so we said, "Bye bye, Hollywood Studios!" 

 We came back to the hotel around 3:45, and then we let the girls play in the splash park! That evening, we enjoyed a Rice Krispie picnic while Mommy packed us up! Felicity had it EVERYWHERE! 

We all slept really well, and then we left our room around 7am to drop our amazing stroller off at the front desk, and then take our luggage to the airline check in (at our hotel)! Then, the Magical Express Bus picked us up and whisked us away to the airport. We were all so sad to leave!!! 

 The plane ride home was SO easy! (of course, haha!) We were on a big plane, and we had our Daddy with us! Felicity actually fell asleep right before take off, and she slept on me for the first hour and a half of the flight! When she woke up, the girls played together in the seat between us and read books! I did have to get Elmo out toward the end, but that was nothing comparatively! Avaree loved getting water refills from the flight attendant, and Daddy read a magazine! I'd say that was a successful flight! 

I'll forever treasure these four days together with my family! It was magical and wonderful and perfect and fun! (Any former students recognize that as a polysyndeton?) 

I'm so thankful that the Lord provided us this amazing opportunity!!!! 

I already have plans for our next trip, even if it is several years down the road! ;)

Once we arrived back in DFW, we got our car and headed for Mexican food! :) Then, we let Felicity take a nap in the car while we waited for our doctor's appointment to find out if we're having a boy or a girl! :)

Stay tuned for that!
