Ryan's 10th Birthday and Beyond

Ryan's birthday was one spent at home, but he really didn't seem to mind. We woke up to 10 balloons in the front yard!! After much speculating, we discovered it was the work of Grandpa. So fun!

After a little schoolwork we went out front.....
Because the cousins drove by to sing Happy Birthday!

Not much schoolwork got done on this day. Andrew was being SO naughty, I was trying to make Ryan's day special, make a dessert......school was just impossible.

Making cookies that looked like pizza, however, was not impossible. (Thanks to a local baker, Bee in the Bonnet!)

In the afternoon Grandma Jan came by with Ryan's present.
 Pickle Ball! Ryan loves being outside, so this looks like a lot of fun for him.
 Cool dodgeball!
 Ryan requested Chili's for dinner, so we indulged him with bacon cheeseburgers.
 I made oreo bars that were incredibly rich and sweet!
We sang, and Ryan opened a couple small gifts. Our big gift for him (a green machine!) won't be here until Saturday.
 Happy 10th Birthday Ryan!
Ryan has been obsessed with music lately, so these wireless headphones from Grandma and Grandpa were a terrific gift.

 As was this pickle ball set from Grandma Jan!
My little ducklings, riding in a line down the sidewalk. There were repairing the roads near us so we spent a good hour watching on Friday.
Our caterpillar turned in to butterflies and we released them this weekend!
 On Sunday we had a social distancing birthday picnic. My niece Bella turned 7, so we celebrated her and Ryan on separate blankets, spaced apart at the park.
 Bubbles!
 Rolling down hills!
 And of course any trip to Clover Valley Park always ends in exploring the creek.
