Mike’s 50th birthday celebrations!

The Saturday before Mike’s birthday we met up with our wonderful friends for dinner at Boi Na Braza. It’s a Brazilian steakhouse and I knew the girls were going to get a kick out of it! Of course they liked getting stuff off the buffet like rice with meat in it and croutons. Then the serious stuff started with the men bringing more and more and more kinds of meat to the table. They loved it! Dani said her favorite thing was that the food kept coming and coming. We had a great time like we always do chatting and laughing. At the end we had dessert and Dani was excited about two things – one that Laura let her get her own piece of carrot cake, and two that Mike’s plate had letters made of chocolate sauce which she quickly asked to put her fingers in.

Mike picked Buca di Beppo for his birthday dinner. YUM!

And Mike kept up his tradition of buying gifts for the the girls instead of us giving him gifts. They just love it!

Wafflemania!

The day after the tournament Papa and Grandma Brooke came over for our traditional WAFFLEMANIA!!! I even had Dunkin Donuts coffee for them along with our regular and chocolate chip waffles 😉 Before and after we ate they played with the girls and visited with us. It was a really nice morning.

Puzzle time. I only stepped in because Papa and Grandma had to leave soon and he and Amelie were so close.
