The Vancouver Children's Cultural Parade

Every year in Vancouver all the third grade students from all the schools in the district put on a cultural parade.  Louis and his class all learned about a different country from their heritage, and made a poster to wear in the parade showing off everything that they learned. 

 Here's Louis' class.

 Here's Louis.  He did his project about Denmark.

Happy 5th Birthday Alice!

Back in April Alice turned 5 years old!  I can't believe it either.  We had a little birthday party for her at our house.

We decorated the dining room in a Princess theme which Alice picked out.

 There was pizza (from Papa Murphy's, of course).

It was also Hector's birthday.  Here are the two happy birthday people.

 I made Alice a chocolate cake with vanilla frosting and sprinkles.

This was the point that we realized that I accidentally bought trick birthday candles.

Alice loved all of her presents. 

Hector's sister gave him some wine for his birthday (she knows him so well).  After the presents we all went to the local bounce house playland, where the kids had lots of fun, but I didn't take any pictures.
