"The fundamental mission of motherhood now is the same as it always was: to nurture, protect, and instruct children, to create a home environment that enables them to learn and grow, to help them develop a heart for God and his purposes, and to send them out into the world prepared to live both fully and meaningfully."

-Sally Clarkson from the Mission of Motherhood

day 3---Hollywood Studios

So the next day we were off to check out Hollywood Studios.  We were there bright and early ready when they opened the gates.  And---there were lots of other people there too!  :)  You can see Josh and Brooks heading in with the crowd.

We made a beeline for "Toy Story Mania".  All of the oversized toys and things from the movie were as much fun (if not more) for my kids as the ride.  In fact, it was a little jerky and fast for Bubba, but he liked it!

After we rode "The Great Movie Ride" and maybe some other things?, we stumbled upon a dance party for kids in the middle of the street.  Brooks was really getting into it!
Love this!

Clark giving Goofy (or "Foofy" as he says) a "HI".
Little B loved the characters!

"Is that me?"
My favorite ride here was Aerosmith's "Rockin Rollercoaster".  AM and B are in front of the giant guitar.
After lunch Julia and I took the boys back to the hotel to nap (Clark had a MAJOR meltdown while we were eating), and Sean stayed with AM to do some more things.  They caught a Beauty and Beast show.
And AM caught some flies in her mouth.
kidding.  But we loved seeing this face so many times that week!

That night we had dinner at the Prime Time cafe.  It was deeeeeelicious.  Brooks had some fun with straws. 

The whole crew!  My poor dad had some kind of allergic reaction to the smoke that was in the Rockin Rollercoaster ride, and his eyes became VERY swollen.  It was bad!  By the end of the week they were almost back to normal.  yikes!

Another quick day was done at WDW!
