Disney World: Galaxy's Edge and Lucas's Birthday

 We went to three of the four parks. We missed Epcot. On June 13th we spent the day in Hollywood Studios at Galaxy's Edge for Lucas's birthday. The boys got to build their own droids. This was a huge highlight for them. We didn't get any pictures! I thought Stephen did but he was too caught up in the experience. I took the two younger ones to another place to make their own lightsabers. This Star Wars land was incredible! The rides, the décor, and the characters just made you feel like we were actually on another planet from the movies. We saw Kylo Ren walking down the street. That also made Zander's and Lucas's day. I took Grayson to meet Goofy and we went to Toy Story Land to ride the flyer saucers. He didn't care for that ride at all, haha. While we were waiting for dad and the others to get off a ride I spotted a beautiful cardinal! That was a highlight for me. I've always wanted to see on in the wild. I didn't know they lived in Florida. The kids and I met Chewbacca and BB8 too. We all went on the Tower of Terror ride; that was one I didn't want to miss. Hannah went on it with me and Zander and she loved it! She's a real thrill seeker like her mom.

Grayson was scared of Chewy so he held his arm out for him to pet, but Grayson was still unwilling, so Chewy looked away to make it easier for him. He eventually touched him and waved goodbye before we left.

Later that night when we got back from the park we went to a bakery to get Lucas and Aaron birthday cakes so we could sing to them. Happy 8th Birthday Lucas!!
