Grandpa Doc's 60th Birthday






My Dad turned 60 and to surprise him, all of his daughters made it home. He was very surprised! My Mom threw a party for him Saturday night. Unfortunately, a winter storm warning rearranged some travel plans, like instead of Ashley, flying out of Wausau or Rhinelander on Sunday morning, she needed to get to Minneapolis; so we made a night out of it and my Dad and I drove Ashley to the Cities. We started our own drive home a little before 2 and didn't make it home until 7:30. The roads were terrible but I was most impressed with my husband's driving, dodging accidents like a pro race car driver. We were happy to get home but glad we made the trip, got to see everyone (but Brian) and got to celebrate with my father. Happy Birthday Dad!

What a shocking surprise to have each of Jim's daughters home to celebrate his 60th birthday. It was fun evening shared with family and many special friends. Sarah had a weekend of roadtripping but helping to make everyone happy. Thanks for all you do for others.
