A special day today ... Claudia's 60th birthday. We celebrated in at Rob's house in St. Charles, IL with a special SURPRISE appearance by Susan who flew in from LA. It was very emotional having the entire family together again and meeting Ceci for the first time. Another celebration was held the next night on the 28th at the home of Dave and Janet Christein. Dave's birthday was earlier in the month. Dave and Sue Lushin drove in from Kalamazoo; Sue's birthday is the 28th. Dave and Kathy Roberts were in town from Cincinnati, and Bill and Pat Albu came with their grandson Marlon.
