Afton's Birthday

Last Sunday was Afton's fourth birthday. We had church from 9-12. Then we came home for lunch and naps (quiet time). Dan decorated and helped me decorate the cake. Afton wanted to decorate the bunny's bow.

That kind of cake is very hard to frost!

My parents, Candice, and baby Lincoln came over to celebrate that afternoon. (Charlotte and Millie headed off to Chicago with Craig a few days early.) Since our guests wanted to leave before it got dark, we took a nice walk around the neighborhood and then changed things up by having Afton open her presents before dinner.

She got a Belle dress, some cute Minnie Mouse PJs, a switch-n-go dino, Tangled, a few books, ring pops, a glow-in-the-dark wand, a balloon, and a fishing pole that broke the same day.

Afton requested mac n cheese for dinner, so that's what she and Sam had while the rest of us had chicken divan followed by dessert.

We love our Afton girl! She is such a fun, sweet, girly girl. She brings so much joy into our family.

And this was my last time seeing Candice before she headed back to Chicago. It was so much fun to see her a lot this summer. I'm going to miss her! She was suffering from a major cluster headache that day, but I still convinced her to pose with me.
