After a week of glorious sunshine, the day of Aviva's fourth birthday party / our farewell party dawned, foggy and soggy and gray. Fortunately for us, the birthday girl was not to be deterred.
In the morning, we decorated two cakes. Aviva etched her name into the cake with a toothpick, and I helped her pipe the icing onto the lines.
We had to say good-bye to some very dear friends, including Aviva and Franklin's buddies Jemima and Bunty, the whole Kickert clan, and too many others to list here.

We miss our Swaziland friends desperately and look forward to seeing them again soon.
Our close friends, Erik, Nicole, and Lily, very generously hosted the party, to which dozens of our friends showed up, despite the rain and mist.
The weather didn't stop Franklin, either. You can see rain on his face, but he was happy to play outside.
Everyone (including baby Jamison) had a good time.
