Happy Birthday Brooke!

We spent our first full day in Maine celebrating Brooke's brithday!

Good Morning, Brooke!

Dad and I had fun decorating for her birthday!

We got balloons that light up!

Birthday lunch! All ready for lobster!

Before dinner, we got ready to take a swim at the clubhouse in the indoor pool!

Birthday dinner consisted of shrimp, corn on the cob and salad!

For dessert... Reese's Peanut butter cake!

31!

Happy Birthday, Brooke! I am glad we got to celebrate it with you!

The Week After... friends and family in town!

Paul and Ellen were very blessed to have many friends and family come in town for their wedding! We were blessed because they stayed around after the wedding so we could hang out with them!

Charlene and I
Oh how I love this girl! We became good friends on my third trip to Kenya. She is from Kenya but met and married an American so now she lives in Chicago! It was oh so very good spending with her, meeting her husband and loving on her baby bump!

And no visit is complete without taking them to Goodberry's!
mom, Antoine, Charlene and me

We were blessed to have the Killom crew stay for a while so we could spend time with them! And of course on their last night we went to Goodberry's!
Brennen, Uncle Roger, Mason, Dad, Simon, Josh

Uncle Roger and Aunt Judy brought their dogs with them:

Phoebe

and just because, I had to get a picture of Zoe

Oh Zoe, why are you hiding under the blankets? But she's not hiding, I threw the blankets on top of her because she was not being nice...
