Is it possible for one administrator account to view another administrator's documents (such as pictures, documents, and internet history) even if the admin has chosen to hide their folder? It said that it will hide from limited accts, but it didnt say anything about admin accts.

I'm just wondering because I suspect that my parents are hacking into my documents and history. I *really* cant let them see things like that. We all have admin accts.

Yes, if you hide a folder, it is not available to other users - even those with Admin rights. I think it still is available to the special account called 'Administrator' (which you normally only see in Safe mode).
I wouldn't trust TOO much to Windows internal security, though. If you want something to be really secure, only store it on removable media and password protect the media, encrypt the file, zip it with a password or whatever takes your fancy!

Administrative accounts can see all other documents on the system. That's why you only want people to use user accounts. Save the Admin account for repairs, tun-ups, and upgrades.

Yes, the administrator has all the rights and permissions.
