Brooke Turns the Glorious Age of 28

Sunday morning Brooke woke up a full 28 years old.  I know what you're thinking - "isn't Brooke only 27?"  The answer to that fair and fully warranted question is no.  Brooke's 27th birthday was lost over the International Date Line and there has been much confusion over the last 12 months as to the correct number of her years, but rest assured - it is now fully under control.

I tagged along with Brooke to church and afterwards we walked down to a fun restaurant close by with a few more peeps for a birthday brunch celebration.
 And Brooke was more than a little spoiled
 Afterwards Dominique and Melissa took her to get manicures and I jetted out to Shayne's first ever birthday!
 (love the rainbow thigh-highs)
 Even her little cousin Dawson expressed his love
 Then Brooke, Tammy and I decided to end the day by meeting up for one last birthday coffee at Starbucks.  Our time was quickly hijacked by this cute 88 year old from Egypt, Dr Tewfik.  He asked to kiss Brooke, scolded the two of us for putting off marriage, announced Tammy was his favorite, offered to marry us all, stole a cupcake, and passed out Werthers Originals - all with a mischievous twinkle in his eye. 
Then we said our goodbyes and headed back to our respective homes to finish up the day and the weekend.

Happy birthday, Brookie!

Of that whole blog..the last is the best. It's all fun, but I love that 88yr old guy hitting on you girls and he even made off with a cupcake to boot.
