I can't believe Parker is already 10 years old! We had so much fun celebrating her birthday and she loved all the things we were able to do.
Parker wanted to wake up to her decorations, so I put them up the night before. I did some simple decorations because we did her birthday party a week later (so cousins could be there).
The night before Parker's birthday was Ashtyn's no screens activity and she wanted to spend her activity making lemon bars and birthday cards for Parker.
Parker loved it!
Our traditional donuts! I didn't get a picture before the kids ate most of them 😅
During Leah's nap, Parker and I went to the store together to let her pick out treats for her birthday date that night. We also picked up Papa Murphy's pizza since that's what she wanted for dinner.
She spent the afternoon hanging out with two of her friends and then we went to her Grandma's house, where we had pizza and watermelon for dinner. Leah hanging out with Uncle Dalin was too cute to not get a picture of.
And little Leah dancing with cousin Thomas 🩷
After pizza, we went out to the creek for a creek day.
Leah loved it!
Ashtyn swimming across the creek.
And Ben caught a snake! The kids were in heaven.
It was a yellow racer and was a little bit aggressive, which is why Ben held it with a towel.
For Parker's birthday date, she wanted to play video games to "earn" coins that she could then "buy" treats with. This is an idea that Ashtyn has done a couple times before. I gave her a lot of different options, but this is the one she wanted. She had a lot of fun with it.
We played Super Smash, Boomerang Foo, and Baba is You.
She loved all the treats and the video games!
Parker wanted a dragon (and specifically Wings of Fire, but dragons in general) for her birthday theme.
The kids had so many dragons to put on the wall XD
Our gift to Parker were the newest Wings of Fire graphic novels and she was SO excited.
Parker wanted an ice cream sandwich ice cream cake with this picture on top as a decoration.
It's not my favorite dessert, but it's the kids' apparently 🤷
Happy Birthday to Parker!
Dragon masks!
The kids also caught two snakes, they called them Parker's birthday snakes. Thomas caught the first one at the park on the way over and they caught the second one (which was HUGE) as they were letting the first one go.
Parker loved all her birthday celebrations and we loved celebrating her!
