Morning Announcements for Feb. 28

“Happy birthday to Anna D., who probably wishes she wasn’t headed to work but we are very excited to celebrate your 30th birthday this weekend. Love you.”

“Congratulations to Tom Scheck, APM Reports deputy managing editor, who on March 1 celebrates 25 years at Minnesota Public Radio and 25 years since he met his now wife, Colleen, at MPR. She’s so glad he made the decision to move to Minnesota and join the MPR newsroom! Happy work and life anniversary!”

“My mom, Joyce Peterson, is turning 80 years old. Happy Birthday!”

“Happy belated 30th birthday to Alec in Mankato from auntie Lori in St. Paul! Looking forward to celebrating with you this weekend!”

“Happy birthday to my wife Diana. And happy 90th birthday to our aunt Helen. We are looking forward to a weekend of celebrations.” 

“My kids were each born within the first three days in March, so it’s been birthday week at our house for two decades. They don’t live with me year-round anymore, but we still celebrate with cake and the retelling of their birth stories. Wishing Rosa and Violet awesome adventures in their next revolutions around the sun.”

“Happy birthday to Jax Bain! An inspiration to us all and a lover of turtles!”

"Happy non-birthday to Terry Brueck and all the other leaplets! Enjoy another year of having only 18 birthdays, yet being born in '52! No wonder you can ski the Birkie every year!" 

“Celebrating the hard work and talent of Mahtomedi Middle Schoolers as they open their spring musical, ‘Shrek Jr.,’ this weekend!” 

“Happy birthday to my husband, Jim Neisen!”

“Happy 13th birthday to our super-fantastic son, Ben. You make us proud every day and it is a joy to see your positive nature inspire goodness in others.”
