you need to use disklabel to delete some of the existing paritions. this is the kind of procedure you really don't want to do without backups, and if you have backups, restoring them may be easier. there is no easy way to shrink or move filesystems, only copying their contents. depending on where /var is, your ability to grow it may be limited.
