We had a fun trip to Gilroy Garden today.  We, along with the Changs and the Kaos decided to visit this theme park for the first time and since the weather was beautiful it made the visit even better.  The theme park was nicely designed and was full of little kiddle rides.  We did some family rides together, like Logan’s all time favorite train ride, a boat ride in the Rainbow Garden and the ferris wheel.  And the kids, Mckayla, Marcus, Ashlyn and even Logan all enjoyed many different individual kid rides.  Logan had some hesitation at the beginning, but toward the end of the visit, he became quite comfortable with them.  Connor also rode his first solo ride today.  Stuart was initially concerned that Connor might be too young, but he understood that he is often over protective.  Connor had a great time riding the fire engine along with Ashlyn while he ate his cracker.  See the video here.

     We spent the rest of the time hanging out together, eating a yummy fried food lunch, and playing at the carnival booths. After 5 hours at the park, we decided to be the first family to take off.  The boys took their naps during the ride home, so they were rejuvenated while Stuart and I missed our opportunity for taking a break.  But the trip today was worth it.  We will post the rest of today’s photos in our album later.
