Van's 6th Birthday

On Friday, Van turned 6!

The first thing he did Friday morning was open his presents. One of which was a model of the Millennium Falcon, so he had to call Finn to come over right away.

Then we had a party at Bouncing Bears

A little bit of food

a birthday boy

some presents

They bounced for an hour in the beginning but we didn't get any pictures of the bouncing action. Mom figured it would have just been a blur anyway. They were all running around so fast.

At the end they sat down for cake.












Esther back home, playing with some of Van's new toys.

Van's other presents from his family were a new snowsuit, gloves, and boots. Mom got him a new ski helmet.



I took him to a ski lesson. There he is with his instructor.




After his lesson, he skied a few runs with me.



One of Van's favorite classmates, Mila, missed his birthday. They thought it was Saturday instead of Friday so by the time they realized their mistake it was too late. To offset the disappointment we met Mila at Get Air (the new trampoline park Van had been dying to try) on Sunday so that they could play. She's the one with the red ball.




Overall it was a great birthday. I didn't do as many homemade touches as I would prefer (comparing to the standard of my birthdays growing up). But Van had fun and I was happy to celebrate him. We all had a great birthday weekend.
