Dad Jordan's 85th Birthday!!

I wanted to get this in before now, but I had so much to fit in before it. We went to Wisconsin a little over a week ago to celebrate Dan's dad's 85th birthday. Jane had flown here the night before in order to see where we live and then to get there to surprise her dad. Well, the surprises did not stop there. Laurie showed up just as everyone was heading to bed. She had left Maryland after teaching school and had flown to Milwaukee. She had called to tell her dad happy birthday while she was driving to see him, but he didn't know that she was not in Maryland. It was a lot of fun. Saturday morning Dan's brother David stopped by on his way from Ohio to Omaha, NE where he is starting a new job. Dan's nephew Stephen and his wife Elizabeth came over from Milwaukee area. It was a lot of fun. It was so neat seeing Dan's dad surprised. Dan's mom didn't know Laurie was coming, so that was a great surprise also.



The other thing that we had to do while in WI was buy cheese. A trip to our favorite cheese factory was in order. We came home with many pounds of cheese. Oh, so good. We are in the land of corn of soybeans...cheese comes from KRAFT.
