Our second park day was spent at Hollywood Studios. This was exciting because we had told Jack all about the Jedi Training and he was super excited about doing it. However, the catch is that they only take 12 kids per show and only do eight shows a day. You have to get there pretty early and go to the designated area WITH your kid to sign them up. Once all the spots are gone you're out of luck. We knew all this so we were at the gate ready to go pretty early. In fact, we were the second family in line at one of the turnstiles. When the cast member came to open them up, she noticed Jack's birthday button and scanned his ticket into the system before they officially opened the gates, so technically, he was the first person into the park that day!
Once they let us in, Marshall and Jack headed over to Jedi Training while Anna and I went to get fast passes for Toy Story Mania (apparently, this ride has the longest lines in all of Disney World and they tend to run out of fast passes pretty quickly). One we got our fast passes, we decided to ride once before we met back up to watch Jack fight Darth Vader!
In the end, Jack LOVED Rock n' Roller Coaster and rode it several times throughout the day. He said he liked Tower of Terror, but did not want to ride it more than once! Anna enjoyed the shows, especially Beauty and the Beast. Overall, it was another fun day!

| Toy Story Mania (this one was my favorite ride). |
 |
| Jedi Training - getting ready to take the stage. |
 |
The Jedi master taught them all how to use a light saber.
|
 |
| Suddenly, Darth Vader arrived on the scene to try and win them all over to the Dark side! |
|
|
|
 |
| Anna was not a fan of Darth Vader. |
|
|
|
|
 |
| She eventually jumped out of the stroller and crouched down behind it! |

|
 |
| Once Jack had defeated Darth Vader, the Storm Troopers came in for attack and Jack used the Force Push to stop them. He thought he was hot stuff because he was the only kid who got to do this! |

|
 |
| Graduating! |
 |
| After the battle, he decided to use some of his birthday money to buy a light saber. |
 |
| Back to ride Toy Story Mania again, this time with the boys in tow. |
 |
| Anna got a free cookie just because she was so cute (and we were the only ones in the bakery)! |
 |
| Practicing some Jedi moves after lunch. |
 |
| Rock n' Rollercoaster - fun, fun! |
 |
| This is what Marshall and Anna were doing when Jack and I got back from riding - he's such a good Daddy!! |
 |
| Toy Story Mania again. We LOVED the fast passes! |
 |
| We decided to get a snack and eat while watching the parade. Ice cream was the closest snack, huge mess on a hot day! |
 |
| Muppets in 3D |
 |
| Waiting in line to see Buzz and Woody. This was by far the longest we waited in line for anything, but the Jedi Training first thing in the morning threw off my planned itinerary! |
 |
| Buzz got right in Marshall's face to pose for the camera! |
 |
| This is the finale from Fantasmic - very cool show! | | | | | | | |
