Gilgal park

Today the boys and I decided to go to Gilgal park and then to the King's English bookstore. Craig and I had been to Gilgal when Zach was a baby with my family but hadn't been back since.



Zach was willing to pose for pictures today I think that he is feeling pretty good since his birthday is tomorrow and he is excited.



The cricket was the thing that Jacob was the most interested in seeing here he had heard about it and searched and searched till he found it.





Another picture opportunity but the sun was also up this morning.







The next picture is a view looking from the back of the park forward.



Most of the stones that are in the ground have different scriptures carved into them.



This is taken from the front right after the entrance looking in at an angle.







The also had lots of pretty flowers.



Even though this wasn't the type of park that they are used to the boys did admit that it was fun to go and see and they were surprised that it was just tucked away in a neighborhood downtown.





Then we stopped at the King's English bookstore. This was a fun store. It was floor to ceiling books all the way through. The boys loved looking in the kids section and even allowed me a quick walk through the rest of the store without to much grumbling that they were bored. If you haven't been I suggest checking it out. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and they even had a lot of autographed copies of books.
