Eve turned 10 on a Tuesday this year and since we were still under covid quarantine, got to celebrate at home all day, between doing her online class work.
She wanted cinnamon rolls and hot chocolate for breakfast!
She choose an angel food cake and even helped me make it!
Then we went outside for a photo shoot. She had lots of ideas for locations (all around our yard).

We had Taco Tuesday for her birthday dinner - she always chooses the beef soft tacos when we get Rosas.
Balloons destroyed to access her birthday present clues!
She was not amused with the present I hid inside the pack n play.
Her expression when she read the certificate for her 10th birthday trip to New York! (This was before I asked her her birthday questions - see #20.) Unfortunately, the trip wasn't until the summer, but anticipation is half the fun, right???
I don't think it's possible for this girl to be more beautiful - inside and out!
She got to choose her ice cream flavors!
And sporting her new coat for her birthday well check :).
Happy birthday, Eve!
