May the 4th at Hollywood Studios & Giveaway [CLOSED]

May the 4th be with you! A play on words and dates for Star Wars fans and now the inspiration for a day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Resort! As part of Limited Time Magic, Hollywood will host May the 4th Be With You. Special Star Wars characters, merchandise, a dance party, and even parents participating in the Jedi Training Academy with their younglings are all part of the fun. I’m excited to enjoy the day with my fanboy boyfriend Jim and will be posting live pictures and videos here all day! May the 4th at Hollywood Studios will be a great day!

Giveaway
I’m also giving away this Star Wars The Clone Wars sticker book and signed Ashley Eckstein photo to someone who comments on this post today! I’ll pick the winner on the way home tonight. The more you comment, the better your chances are. 🙂

More friends we’re watching the fireworks with. Tyler, Linda, Alejandra & Derek.

The fireworks were really fantastic! The show didn’t last long, only about 7 minutes, but it was filled to the top with fireworks and unique ones at that.
