Meet My BFF - Charity Brooke, Lafayette, IN, 30

Many, many years ago (okay, so 10 years ago this month) I met the girl who would become my best friend! This picture was taken when Tropical Storm Hanna was making landfall in Pensacola, FL. We were college suitemates and became fast friends, after trudging our way back from chapel, we were completely soaked. Of course later this night before being locked in due to the Tropical Storm force winds and rain we decided we needed to deliver frappuccinos to our friends (ie cute guys on campus). This was only the beginning of our friendship. 





 By the end of that school year, we were inseparable. One of my favorite pictures of the two of us was taken in late winter, ignore the fact that she appears to be choking me, we get along wonderfully.







Charity is a gifted musician. She recently started teaching piano on a full time basis. She also has a beautiful singing voice. While attending Pensacola Christian College she studied Music Education, later she attended Ivy Tech in Lafayette, IN and achieved a degree in Office Administration.
As you can see, she has had a long love affair with her piano, and her current job of teaching is fulfilling a life long dream. 




 

Charity was raised on a farm, and even though she is currently a townie, she still loves visiting her parents at their farm. This is a picture of her with her "pet" cow Precious, who she loves...well, until the cow gets her to touch the electric fence, and her friends are very thankful that she had decided to record her visit with Precious at the time of the "attack" :)




 Really, you will never meet a sweeter, kind hearted person than Charity Brooke! She is a dedicated friend and a strong Christian. She is very involved at her local church both with the women's Bible study and church newsletter.





If you are interested in getting to know my best friend, please leave a message below and I will get a message to her. Thank you for taking the time to read this post, and I pray you have a wonderful day!
