Gilroy Gardens

On Friday (6/24/11), I had to take advantage of a great promo at a local theme park. Gilroy Gardens had adult admission for $10!! Woo hoo! It is regularly $45, so I just had to take Kellen. Plus, who can resist a wonderful day with their son?

So, off we went. I rode along with Mandi and her two boys (Mandi watches Kellen on Fridays). We arrived right when it opened, hit the bathrooms, then quickly jumped on the carousel. We then went on a bunch of other rides. There were so many great rides for Kellen. The fishy ride, Kellen wasn't so sure about at first. In fact, I thought he was going to cry. He quickly caught onto the idea that this was fun, and he was all smiles. There was also a really cool dinosaur exhibit. Kellen was pretty much clueless about the dinosaurs, but Jackson & Taylor got a kick out of it. They even had fossiled dino-poop!!! We thought that was pretty funny.

Here are some pics of our day. Can't wait to go back (with Daddy this time).

All three boys are in this shot.

He is finally smiling!

On the fire truck! (Taylor & Jackson are right in front of him in yellow).
Got the one arm steering going on!
In the #3 car.

He loved driving the car.
