Gilroy Gardens

 

Lane's parents invited us to Gilroy Gardens for the day on Monday. We had such a nice visit with them.  

  

We let Gabriela drive on the car ride.  Check it out, it looks like she has road rage, already!

 

Hi Grandma and Grandpa

 

Gabriela and Grandpa

 

Gabriela enjoyed the balloon ride again.  See her waving to the people in the next booth? 

 

And then she got the fabulous idea of holding her hands up in the air from them.  Auntie Theresa and Andrew met us there too. 

 

Check out those wild folks in the booth next to us :)

 

The kids changed into their bathing suits to check out the sprinklers.  Gabriela didn't get very close.

 

Andrew, on the other hand, was all over those sprinklers.  

The kids went on these cute little cars next.  I was so proud of Gabriela for riding in a car all by herself. She loved it so much, she rode it TWICE in a row. What a big girl.

 

Then the kids rode the fire trucks together.  For the first half of the ride, Gabriela was looking around all confused.  Finally, she said, "I wanna wheel!" Next time around Gabriela and Andrew switched places so she could drive.  She didn't even touch the wheel for a while.  So, Andrew leaned as far forward as he could and yelled, "DRIVE" And the NEXT time, because yes, they rode the fire trucks three times in a row, they each rode their own truck.  

Then it was ice cream time.  Thanks, Grandpa and Grandma! After ice cream, Gabriela announced, "I wanna ride a fire truck" so we went back for three more rounds of fire truck rides. Thank goodness there were no lines that day! 

 

Thanks for taking the picture, Auntie Theresa :) And thanks for a great visit and dinner Grandma and Grandpa.  We had a wonderful time!
