A BIRTHDAY SHOUT OUT TO BROOKE!

Isn't this a lovely picture. I just wanted to say Happy Birthday to one of my oldest friends Brooke Collins Flake. We have known each other for almost 30 years. We have been in the same ward,same t-ball team,same driver ed. class(which is one of my funniest memories of school and Brooke), we shared a birthday party together cause our birthdays are really close,and we were on the same school swim team. Thins is a picture of me and Brooke at a swim meet where I usually swim the 500 which is 20 laps and Brooke had done something wrong or was late to a class, and as her punishment she had to swim the 500 with me at the meet. She did a great job and thanks to her I can say that I didn't come in last place at all of my swim meets. LOL! I think Brooke is an amazing mom(of 3 adorable kids), and a great friend. Hope you have a great Birthday Brooke.

Thanks Nancy. You said some nice things. That makes up for the horrible picture. I totally remember swimming those 20 laps. It was really hard and embarrassing because they had to wait for me to be done so they could do another race. But hey at least I finished. I hope you have a happy birthday tomorrow, and maybe I'll be able to find a great picture. I'll have to get out the old pictures and begin my search.
