Happy 80th Birthday Mom aka Grandma or Oma






What a grand lady God has given us. Mom turned 80 years young on December 4, 2007. We had quite a celebration which actually started in July/August. With an unforgettable trip to Greece and then Vienna. We had quite a celebration in Vienna where Uncle Peter gave a wonderful speech auf Deutsch honoring this exceptional lady.

Here in Eagle River, we had started with a coffee/tea gathering with a wonderful German friend followed by a large gathering of family for Greek food and then dessert. Happy Birthday Mom! We love you.
