Sydney and Parker's Birthday Party

We decided to join forces this year and combine Sydney and Parker's birthday parties.  We had it at a local indoor soccer center.  There were about 15 kids that came to play... mostly Sydney's friends, a couple of Parker's neighbor friends, and a couple of Sydney's friends' big sisters I included because they loooooove Parker.  Like, seriously, love him.

The card one of the big sisters made for Parker.  Isn't that precious?

The kids got to play on the field for an hour- there was an employee who got the field ready and helped guide the fun.  We had some little goals set up for the younger kids, and bigger goals for the bigger kids.  The kids kicked the ball, played some matches, got sweaty, and got some good exercise.

This is one of the girls that adores Parker.  She's in 3rd grade.

After the hour on the field, we got to go to the party room for the next hour.  Everyone ate pizza and snacks, ate cupcakes, and we eventually opened presents.  The best part was... the place did all the clean-up (and set up, and getting the food, drinks, plate, cups, etc!  My kind of party!)

Cupcakes!  Thanks, Pinterest!

This is the other sweet girl, she's in 5th grade!

I think the kids all had a good time.  Stephen said the party was awesome- I think he liked being able to run and play like a kid.  Score!
