Bridgman Family Update

Dear Brothers, Sisters, and Families,

I am posting this note to let you know about a few family dates upcoming in March and April.

Friday night is family night at Josephine. We thought we could all join Mom and Dad, Friday, March 20th, for dinner to celebrate Dad’s 88th birthday. We will gather at 5:45 p.m. in the cafeteria. You will need to call the Josephine Home at 360-629-2126 to let them know how many from your family will be attending.
Sunday Morning, March 22nd, 10:00 a.m. join in the family work party at Sullivan Road. Wear your “grubs”, bring your gloves, tools, wit, and sense of humor. J Come prepared for barn work, house work, yard work, and bonfire. Hopefully we can “clear the way” for the possibility of the “parentals” returning home, with full time care, for the summer months. Yes, I know it sounds like a lot of work, but we seem to know how to make “work party” more party than work, right? Lunch will be provided.

Easter Agenda
Sunday, April 12th
Smiths’ One Heron Pond
1:00 Dinner
2:00 Hunt
3:00 Walk

4:00 Dessert
Finally, the Easter Sunday Gathering will be observed at the Smiths, Sunday, April 12th. Bring your usual, or call for ideas. “Mystery guests welcome as in the past. “Elmer Fudd along with the Easter Bunny will be in attendance this year, right Bob and Alan?


As you well know, the past few months have brought many difficult decisions and situations regarding our parents. Our sister, Melinda, has done an amazing job at the lead!

Through it all, I really realize that we all have so very much for which to be grateful and thankful. For me, above all else, it is you, my family.
With much love and appreciation,

Candy

I'll be there, but maybe later rather than sooner. Still negotiating the power pole which includes removing a few more trees. There may be more firewood. Let me know. We have 6 inches of spring snow today, probably 6 more before we are finished. Just when I thought spring was just around the corner.Hate to miss the party. I'm sure you will save me a few jobs. Love to all....
