Hollywood Studios Day 5

By -
We spent our fourth day in the parks at Hollywood Studios.  We had been just about 6 weeks before, but that time we focused on Frozen.  This time we were there to see all the other stuff.  Everything I read and heard said you need to ride Toy Story Midway Mania twice.  It's a game and a ride and you need two rides to figure it out.  As recommended, we made a quick dash to it the moment the park opened and only had a short wait.  
The line was pretty fun with big versions of lots of classic kids' toys.





Who doesn't enjoy cool 3-D glasses!

We used our Fast Pass to ride it a second time in the afternoon when the line was a lot longer.  

After our ride we had pastries from Starring Rolls.  SG also got an Olaf cupcake there that was to die for.  It was a delicious carrot cake cupcake with loads of cream cheese frosting.  So yummy!


We saw the parade before and SG mentioned wanting to see it again and lo and behold we walked out of Star Tours and there it was!  It was a hot day, so I was thankful not to stand around waiting for it.  She was precious up on my shoulders holding up her Frozen wand as they passed as though she was saluting!







 I couldn't resist playing around with these fun borders!


Aren't they cute!  

We saw the Muppets 3-D show and I was delighted that the kids really enjoyed it.  I loved the Muppets as a kid, but they don't really know the characters and I was worried it would go over their heads, but they enjoyed it!  

Thanks to Lovie and Pops for taking turns staying with the kids while we rode this fun roller coaster!

This ears sync with the music in the night show and the ears flash and change color with the music.  Leave it to Disney!

Charlie slept through Fantasmic, but SG enjoyed it, especially he floats with the princesses on them!

I don't have any pictures of it, but the best part was doing the Fantasmic lunch package at Mama Melrose.  We had a delicious Italian lunch and we got tickets for the VIP section for Fantasmic.  I think any seat would have been okay, but not worrying about getting there several hours early was nice, and the food was delicious.  Probably my favorite of the whole trip.

Like most girls her age, Sarah Graves LOVES Frozen and has known for quite some time that she wanted a Frozen birthday party. I was so excited when I saw this invitation on Etsy and she loved it too! It reminded me of an infographic. The Frozen theme was a lot of fun! There were so many things to choose from that I took to pinterest and eventually decided on the ideas that I would use for this party. I found this great Arendelle banner here on Pinterest I was so grateful that my sister did a snowflake Christmas and had tons of snowflake ornaments to hang as decorations! This party theme was a lot of fun to plan the food. Kristoff's ice cubes were made from Jell-o with an ombre effect. I found the recipe here on Pinterest. I doubled the recipe to make a 13x9 size pan of it and I made 2 13x9 pans of it. The made plenty of "ice cubes" to fill 35 cups. They turned out really cute! My parents made this Elsa cake and did a fabulous job

Sarah Graves loves baking, watching baking shows, and has lots of ideas about cake decorating. She wanted to decorate her cake herself and made it a team effort with Lovie.  She was very proud of the finished product and learned that piping icing isn't as easy as it looks! For her party, friends went ice skating then came back to our house for food and cake! This guy we referred to as "Cat Man" skated around with his cat and at time with hold the cat under its front legs just above the ice and let it sway as he skated! The cat did not seem to mind...it sure did catch our attention! Pierced ears mean fun earrings! Aunt Lexie definitely picked fun ones with these rubber chickens! So many people love this sweet girl and showed up to celebrate her!
