<font color=green>Day 7...December 9th...MGM Studios and Bear
Saturday...Today was the day Andrew had been waiting for all year practically! He loves Bear in the Big Blue House! He watches this show every single day without fail! Today was the day he was finally going to see Bear and it was all he talked about! We got up around 9 and dressed and ate and left for MGM around 10 that morning! We headed right for Bear because Andrew was all excited and we decided that putting it off would just upset him! lol...We got in line for the show and waited about 10 minutes before they let us in...The girls decided to go on the Great Movie Ride instead saying, âÂÂWe have to watch Bear at home all the time, the last thing we want is to see him live!âÂÂ...so we parted! lol...Well, we were pretty close to the front of the line, so when they let us in, We were in the front row...Andrew was happy to be sitting right in front of the Big Blue House and Savannah just wanted to keep climbing up the steps! About 10 minutes later, the show started and I thought Savannah would be cranky about this because I had to keep holding her back from the stairs which didnâÂÂt impress her too much, but to my surprise as soon as it started, she just watched in amazement! She sat on my lap the entire show just watching and pointing! Andrew was fasinated with this...As soon as he saw OJ, Tutter, Treelo, Pip and Pop, he just watched...and when Bear came out, I swear it was priceless to see his expresion...Like, there was Bear, live in front of him...He laughed and said, âÂÂMommy, that is my bearâÂÂ...I think I had tears in my eyes as I watched Andrew the entire time and he just sat there and clapped and lit right up! I didnâÂÂt want the show to end, but eventually it did...When we walked out, we bought Andrew a Bear had and Savannah a Bear shirt...Andrew wore his hat proudly the rest of the day and kept telling everyone he met, âÂÂI just saw Bear and he was right in front of meâ and stressed the word âÂÂrightâÂÂ...LOL I am amazed at the impact it had on him and will never forget it for the rest of my life! After that we went on the Great Movie Ride and did Little Mermaid...We ate at Pizza Planet because Andrew loves Toy Story! Andrew had the Buzz Meal and shared it with Savannah, because he cannot eat a whole pizza by himself! John and I shared a Pepperoni Pizza, the girls each had a Cheese pizza and my parents shared a Pepperoni also...After that we had my parents take the youngest ones back to the room for naps, while John, the girls and I stayed and went on Star Tours, did Indiana Jones and the Drew Carey show...From there we went on Rock and Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror...I also had John go on the Great Movie Ride once more, because I love that ride! I am a sucker for the old movies! We went back to the room around 4 to pick up my parents and the kids and from there we went to Boardwalk to eat at Spoodles...DH and I had the Grilled Shrimp and Scallops which was incredible! The flavor was beyond good! My Mom had the Seared Salmon...another Salmon dish I wouldnâÂÂt try! LOL..My dad had the Lamb Chops, which were really good too...Jolene and Holly had the Grilled Chicken Breast from the kids menu, Laura had the Pepperoni Pizza and Andrew had the Mickey Pasta...Savannah ate something from everyones! After we ate, we went to Downtown Disney and the Virgin Record Store...the girls bought some CDâÂÂs and I bought Andrew a movie he wanted and Savannah a Disney book...From there we went to Magnatron, which I love...I love magnets, so I bought a whole bunch here...I love looking at all the different ones they have there...we then went to Candy Cauldron where I bought Andrew and Savannah a lollipop and myself and Jolene some Jelly Bellys, because basically we could live on these!! While I was in Candy Cauldron, John and Laura went to get a Coke...My parents were getting tired, so they said they would take Andrew and Savannah to the room and the rest of us went to the movies...We saw âÂÂMeet The Parentsâ which was so funny! I loved the movie and was glad to go...after the movie we went to Disney Quest because I hadnâÂÂt been there yet and checked it out...We did the Buzz Lightyear Astro Blaster, which was a riot! Holly and I got to pick our astro blaster first because while we were all waiting to go into the play area, the CM asked us a trivia question and the first person to raise their hand and answer correctly got to go in first...The CMâÂÂs question was, âÂÂWhat is written on the bottom of BuzzâÂÂs shoe in Toy StoryâÂÂ...I immediately raised my hand and said, âÂÂAndyâÂÂ...Too easy...I think I could recite the movie backwards!! LOL So, Holly and I had one car and John and Laura had another (Jolene didnâÂÂt want to go on this so she played a game while we were doing this)...I was driving our astro blaster, which was a mistake because I was all over the place...Holly was trying to shoot John and Laura, but couldnâÂÂt quite hit the mark on their astro blaster! It was so much fun and finally at the end Holly did end up hitting them and spinning them out of control! When we got off John said he needed a shooter who was awake...I asked him why and he said well laura thought she was shooting the balls, but never put any in the whole time...She thought they just got sucked up into the blaster part and when she hit the button the came out...I asked Laura how come she didnâÂÂt notice they werenâÂÂt coming out, but all she said was, âÂÂI thought they were with all the other balls flying aroundâÂÂ..LOL...It was so funny! After that we played some video games...I like the old ones like Mr. Do! and Galaga, so I played those for about a half hour...after that we went to make our own Roller Coaster...This was awesome!! John and I did it first and put so many twists and loops in ours...It came out to be a 4 on the scale...After we created the Roller Coaster, we had to wait about 15 minutes to ride it and finally we did...It was so cool...Although when I got out of the little cart contraption thingy I felt a little queasy and even John admitted that he didnâÂÂt feel up to par! LOL...It was funny though...Jolene and Holly did it next and they had a number 3 Roller Coaster...They loved it and did it again...Laura didnâÂÂt want to as she hates Roller Coasters...We went to Wonderland Cafe and had some Cheesecake before we left...It was after 11 now and we were getting tired...We went in the elevator to the bottom and got out at the gift shop and I picked up a Buzz Lightyear Dress up costume for Andrew complete with rocket gear and utility belt! He loved it the next morning!
