Afton's Birthday Party

We are so proud of our sweet Afton. He is a treasure.
For his first birthday in Africa he wanted to celebrate Seahawk style.
We had big plans for a fancy cake, but aquiring food coloring did not work out.
He was disappointed at first, but decided to roll with it and quickly set about making decorations.


12 years old - 12th Man party. 
The paper and lego decorations on the right were were made by Afton.


We walked down to our local "green space" for a game of American football.

The game is on. 
A few locals even stopped by to watch.
In the end, the birthday boy got to score the final touchdown!

 Afton received some yummy snacks and a soccer ball.

Celebrating a week late (due to sickness) turned out just fine.
Afton missed getting to play with his buddies from home, but had a great time with his new friends in Kigali.
We love you, Afton!!!!
