Doing something fun for Carver's birthday is always tricky. It's right during busy season, so traveling is out of the question. It's also during winter, so all of the fun outdoor activities and nearby amusement parks are closed. Carver really likes playing mini golf at the Euromast in Rotterdam when the weather is nice. So for his birthday this year, we went to play glowgolf at an indoor place in Scheveningen.
The whole crew...
It can get a little competitive...
Birthday Boy
After a fun day of glowgolf and some pizza, we went home to party some more. I love that my girls like to get involved in the decorating and wrapping. They love a good party!
One of my friends was moving back to the states and selling a bunch of stuff that she didn't want to pay to ship over. I scored a play mobile castle and these two HUGE buckets of legos. I was hesitant about bringing so many annoying little pieces into my house at first, but the kids LOVE to create with them. They play for hours. I think it helps that they didn't come in a box with a picture and directions. The kids just make whatever they can think up.
You know you're an expat kid when your favorite birthday gift is a box of Lucky Charms...
It's hard to believe that Carver has only one more year until his BIG #8 birthday when he will be baptized. Hopefully, he will do a LOT of growing up during this next year, haha! We just LOVE this kid!
