A Cars 2 Event

Yesterday afternoon I heard that there was going to be  a Cars 2 tour, and it was stopping by the Alderwood mall.  Sounded like fun!  The event ran from 2pm to 6pm.  We did not skip school, we left directly from school up to the mall!  Lon and I had a great time!
We waited in line for a while, it was not too bad.  At our first station, we got a bag with a Cars coloring book in it.  The next station was a plinko game, Lon got a color changing pencil. This was followed by a spin the wheel game.  Lon won a beach towel, they let me play and I won the color crayons to go with Lon's coloring book!
The cars! What we were really waiting to see!
Lon's mood pencil! It changes colors as you hold on to it.
Just a few more minutes of waiting!
Lon had his photo taken in front of each and every car. Then he tells me he is going to explode if he does not find a bathroom NOW. We ran into Macy's! The men's room was right by the entrance. Thank you Macy's!  Then we came back and played the Disney Radio game, Lon won some stickers there. He played a bean bag toss game, for that he got a matching game
Playing a matching game on the big screen. He did very well
That was the Cars 2 Tour. Lon had a great time. We will post the photos with the Cars as soon as we get them from the on line site.  Maybe tomorrow.
In the Disney Store! Lon had never been in a Disney Store. It was an amazing, almost overwhelming place for him. We did not buy any toys this time.  We were very good.
Lon was very good, he let Mom look around the American Girl Doll store. (which I loved, and got some wonderful ideas, the new dolls from 1853 are wonderful. The clothes! I can not wait to make some!) To give him a little reward we went to Cold Stone Creamery. Lon likes the ice cream there. Me, not so much.  He got just what he wanted.  We went to the Godiva store and Lon did not like it. This is not the good candy store, Mom! I like See's much better.  We took their samples and said goodbye.
We saw this on our way home and as soon as I came to a stop light, I took a quick snap.  It has been a long time since we have seen a rainbow!
