Afton turned 5 last week! She has been telling everyone for 6 months, "tomorrow is my birthday" and people say Happy Birthday and then I have to let them know that tomorrow is NOT her birthday! Finally her birthday arrived and she would not let us forget about it for the whole week before. She told me every night, "don't let dad forget to decorate for my birthday".
Not only did dad decorate, but he made her this beautiful sign to hang up.
Here she is eating her birthday breakfast of cinnamon rolls at her new Princess table.
She got this new dress for her birthday. She looks SO grown up now! She got the crown when they celebrated her birthday at church. (Yes, she is wearing her Crocs with her dress...it's summer and it's hot...get over it!) :)
Here she is opening her presents.
Her cake this year was supposed to be a ice cream cake. But we decided that brownies would be better than cake, so it was a brownie/ice cream cake. Little did we know at the time that brownies don't make very good ice cream cakes because the brownie freezes solid as a rock LONG before the ice cream refreezes. It was a little messy, but it tasted GREAT! And anything looks better when garnished with a strawberry fan! :)
