13th Birthday Party Ideas?

I'm turning 13 in July, but have to have it planned out in a few weeks so I can invite people. I want to have around 20 people (girls and boys) come and have like 7 (girls only) stay for a sleep over. But I'm not sure what to do. I want to have it at my house. I live in New Mexico so summers can get pretty hot. We have a bonfire pit and a pretty big back yard.

Definitely put a sprinkler system on. You don't need a pool if you have that. You can turn it on and off during the party, as needed.

You can have a water balloon fight! Since your yard is large, maybe fun outdoor activities that involve some sort of games? Frisbee? Any pools nearby?

During the evenings can it get chilly, you can use your bonfire pit for smores!

I have a girl just a little older than you. She just saw a pattern from Hobby Lobby for party decor using handkerchiefs that she thought was really cool. You can sew /or glue or even knot them together to make pillows, table clothes, and banners and all sorts of other things.

One game that is kind of fun is to take t-shirts and bunch them up, soak them with water, & freeze them and then have a relay where 2 teams send 1 person 1 at a time to undo the frozen shirt and put it on. (only good on hot days!!)...
Or you can come up with a treasure hunt where the clues are riddles and end with a special part of your party.(like roasting smores and that would give mom time to get things around for the next phase too)
Basically you will want to give your friends something to do so they have a good time and don't get bored but still be able to laugh & joke or whatever else they do to have a good time. Good luck! ..& Happy Birthday! :)
