celebrating five years

Yesterday we celebrated Kate's fifth birthday at Moncton's new Cirque Atlantic school with a few of her school friends and our favourite Champion clan. Kate was a little off, tired and shy, but overall I think she had a good time. The highlight was definitely seeing the kids get to tumble, run and swing. The kids were all in agreement that the long silks were their favourite: they got to be spun around in cocoon style and then hang upside down like Starfish. They may not have been all that coordinated but they were all darling.

Take a peek:

 Carter and Lydia muscling up.

 Kate and Elliott crawling through rings like bears.

 Toes to bar just like his Mama and Papa.

 I believe this is the classic bunny hop.

All ears awaiting their next instruction.

Carter getting the two thumbs up for his juggling scarves. He was deemed the natural performer of the group.

 I believe this is Carter being swung around in the scarf cocoon.

Elliott's turn.

 Starfish Kate.
Starfish Ell.

I asked Kate this week if she felt different now that she had turned five. "Yes, I do. Very different."
I think she looks different as well.

Kate and Carter examining the dessert?

 All grown up.

Kate and the ladies.
A big hug to Kate's good friend Chloe. 

Well my darling girl, you're five. We can hardly believe how much you have taught us during your little life. You're a beautiful sister, friend, colourer and creative. Love you mucho grande. 

xoxo Mama
