Extra Points
Cindi Burck Alsobrook (DCC ‘95-98, ‘99-01) welcomed her fourth child, a baby girl named Sunny-Lee Damaris Alsobrook on December 26th. Apparently Sunny-Lee took her own sweet time... Cindi went into labor on the 22nd. Here’s a quote from Cindi:
Joel and I were jogging through our neighborhood all day Christmas. I looked crazy at 9 months preggers bobbing along like nothing was wrong. I was NOT pleased with her timing and Joel thought I was on drugs.
Speaking of lifelong friendships, Cindi named her daughter after Sunny Sliger with whom she cheered with in 1997. Cindi told Sunny that if she ever had a daughter, she would name her after her. That’s just like Cindi to keep a promise!

Future DCC
Here is a pic of our Abby with us at the reunion last year. She is actually wearing my "Loveboat" t- shirt that we were given during the making of the Loveboat show.
