The Big Two Digit Number

 
 
We celebrated Trent's 10th (or as Trent calls it 3 years until 13) birthday with a fun and creative party.  Trent wanted his theme to be art and together we came up with tons of projects, in fact the list got so long that we had to narrow it down to his favorites.
 

  Trent and Elizabeth were excited to open gifts (as every ten year old is) but the real fun was the activities.
The kids played a blindfolded game of drawing the birthday kids.  Each child was assigned a body party. It was pretty funny when it was all said and done.

  They built structures out of marshmallows and toothpicks. Which was a perfect craft for all of our ages.


  They placed tape and stickers down and painter over them to make cool pictures once they were dry.


  The piñata was a hit (no pun intended) as it always is.  Every child loves candy falling from the sky.

  Trent came up with a great idea of letting each child decorate their own cupcake.  It was a art party after all!
 

The kids created many treasures...but my favorite masterpieces were these...
 
 
It is hard to believe that my baby is ten.  The years have gone so quickly.  I am so proud of this handsome, smart, creative and caring young man and feel so blessed to have him call me mom.
Happy Birthday Trent Aaron.
We love you more then you will ever know.
