Gilroy Gardens with Friends

Our good friends, Sam and Eric's family came up for the Labor day weekend so a bunch of us went to Gilroy Gardens when they were having a special of $14 per admission. Apparently, half of the city of San Jose and their families decided to go on the same day so the lines for the rides was unusually long. To top that off, the weather was definitely on the warm side so we sweated lots while waiting in line. Despite all of that, we all had fun hanging out together and catching up with each other especially waiting in the hour long hot air balloon ride.

Adrian loves anything water, so he especially enjoyed running through the waterfall. He ended up running through it at least 4 times and at one point he even slipped over, but then picked himself up and continued running! Perhaps it was because he was with a big party and within the party, there were other kids that encouraged him to be brave and sit beside me one of the train rides that looped around the park! I had a great time hanging out with some really good (old) friends and receiving a peck on the cheek by my little munchkin! :)
