Gordon's mom Nan will turn 80 in June, so we wanted to do something special to celebrate. Because so many people had to come in from out of town, we picked this Saturday in May, the 17th, and did a nice event at a restaurant in Albany called Six Degrees. It was a good turnout, Ken and Robert came out from Omaha, and Bonnie, Nan's stepdaughter, and her husband Dennis came in from North Carolina. Of course, all the local family members and even some friends of Nan's from school showed up so it was a good crowd.
The food was great, and Ken invited the guests to tell an anecdote or a story about Nan. Gordon told a story involving Nan showing up at a greek restaurant on a motorbike. Dara talked about Nan coming to help her take care of the baby when we were in the Bahamas, and Aisling talked about taking Nan shopping and just wearing her out! It was a lovely evening. Photos can be seen here.
