Pumpkin Patchin

We continued Afton's birthday celebration with a trip to Janosky's Pumpkin Patch with Aaron Varga for some photos. They turned out great! Afton was pretty tired having slept on about an hour or so the night before (thanks to the cake), but she worked it out for some photos.

1 YEAR OLD!

I am a basket full of cliches this week as our little Afton turns 1.
"I can not believe how fast that year went"
"She is growing up so fast"
"Pass the Gin Punch"

We threw Afton a very special Jazz themed birthday party due to her unusual love of all things Louis Armstrong. We enjoyed red velvet cup cakes while Afton dined on a beet cake. The food was all New Orleans themed and the crawfish beignets were the surprise hit of the day. Even though she bailed on her naps for the day, we managed to have a great time!

Sour Puss

Afton was a big fan of the lemon I gave her the other day. She screamed her face off until I gave it to her and then refused to give it back. Though the pics look like she was turned off by it, in reality she was barely phased by it.
