We kept Afton's first birthday to a little family affair. Brad's parents flew in to spend time with us, so we had a nice little party for her. She got spoiled with plenty of presents.
The cake and presents (and heart streamers)
I was pretty excited to make Afton's first birthday cake. I just did a simple heart with sprinkles. (I didn't want to out-do myself on the first cake!)
My mother used to create these awesome cakes for our birthdays just with cake and buttercream frosting. Anything we asked for, she figured out how to make it. Hopefully I can channel some more of her creativity in the future.
The birthday girl with her cake!
She was a little overwhelmed with 3 camera's pointing at her :)
So I was all excited for Afton to carry on the Morris family tradition of digging into the cake by taking a bite out of it....Afton was not so sure about this tradition.

I thought, maybe Afton just is intimidated by this giant chunk of cake in front of her. So, like a good mother, I cute a piece of cake for her and let her have at it.
I guess she just doesn't like cake!
This was Afton's main present from her Mama and Dada, a pink rocking chair just her size!
(It was an awesome craigslist find)
And there you have it, my little baby girl is 1!
