Lynn canyon suspension bridge

Lynn canyon was fun until Van's meltdown to destruction. We need to pack more snacks.

Geneva learned how to knit and is very excited about the prospect of making her own hot pads.

Van's first steps

We have finally got around to uploading videos. Here is one of Van taking some of his first steps.

Vancouver aquarium

We had a good time today at the aquarium. The Beluga whales were a highlight but not as much fun as Van's reactions to big fish.

Halloween 2008

Same monkey fun this year as last but the suit fit a little snug.

Bianca's first birthday

This is Bianca and her dad Brian. We had a blast at her first birthday. I had to go home and wash all the cuteness off me from that party.

Van and Bianca hang out a bunch and they are very cute together. that is Bianca's mom on the left, Esther.

Van did awsome at the pinata. I was so proud of his eunthusiastic yet clumsy attempts.

Dozer Van

Van really likes bulldovers, tractors, and other loud machinery so grandma Olsen got him this dozer. We get the faint impression that he won't be very good at it as a career.

out and about

This pic is good because you can see White Rock in the back ground. We live back a few blocks beyond what you can see.
