Aren't You a Little Short for a Storm Trooper?

Well, I guess I get to do this one (Joe). While Olivia, Kate, and Renee had their Princess Tea Party Day, Ethan, Jerome, and Joe went back to Hollywood Studios to watch the Jedi Training Academy show and spend some time. Thanks to our awesome connection, they got to have a personal meet and greet with some characters. While Ethan was pretty excited, the big kid got had a dream day and got to meet Darth Vader for a second time...the first being his fourth or fifth birthday party.

The Dark Side

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

All too easy. You will notice that the lightsaber Joe is holding is autographed. A gift from Lord Vader.

The Jedi and Sith put aside their differences for a picture.

Ethan battles the Empire.

Hollywood Studios is also home to Pixar. Here is Ethan meeting Buzz and Woody. He was pretty excited about this.

Ethan and Lightning McQueen.

Ethan really wanted to see what Mater had in his mouth. Guess Joe was equally curious.

The Green Army Man. Ethan was scared of these guys the first day through Hollywood Studios, but he couldn't wait to meet him the next time we saw him.

Of course what trip to Tatooine Traders would be complete without the family Star Wars photo. For the non-Star Wars inclined, Joe is Anakin, Kate is Padme (the parents), Ethan is Luke, and Olivia is Leia (their children). Luke pretty much whined throughout Episode IV and V, so we thought this pic appropriate. We just figured Ethan wanted to go into Tosche Station (is it wrong that I know the correct spelling) to pick up some power converters.
