Happy Turkey Day!!

Trick or Treat!!

Look who arrived at my door on Halloween! Baby Rylan Bryce Clayberg!!

David and Becky are Married!

Yesterday, August 14th, at the Bridgman Family Barn in Bow, David and Becky were married. It was a beautiful and meaningful ceremony.

Of course it was not without a few surprises including the groom and his attendants cruising down Bow Hill via bicycles and arriving at the barn at their appointed time. Yes, that is Lettie, flanked by Peter and Wade, I think, in her dress and shiny black shoes! The men are wearing tuxedos, with one pant leg rolled up of course.

The stunning couple embrace and kiss to seal the deal.

Mr. and Mrs. David Bridgman.

Uncle Ralph Jenkins is Famous!

I just saw Uncle Ralph on a Windermere real estate commercial during the 6:00 news. He can now add famous actor to his list of life accomplishments! The commercial is great and features Ralph talking about his 26 years with Windermere. It played on Seattle's King 5 and on Kiro 7.

Spring

This is the view from our deck. You have to come see it. It is beautiful here. Good to hear all of the good new. We are going to Spokane this weekend to bring all of the stuff back that Jessica has accumlated over the last three or so years that she has been over there. She will student teach at BEHS starting the 22nd. She will graduate June 11th. We are so proud. Amber and Tyler are patiently awaiting the birth of Oliver's little brother due June 8th. Dan and I are just enjoying being up here in the peace and quiet and love having Oliver as a neighbor. We all wish the best for Peggy and if there is anything that we can do please let us know.

Early Spring Update

Finally a post from me! Sorry for the delay but I have been a little busy at my new job, in real estate. Check out my little website at melindawade.com.

Here's some news from the family that has come my way. Mom and dad are getting along pretty well at home and are happy to be there but like the rest of us are ready for winter to be over. They still have 24 hour caregivers from Visiting Angels. Saw Bob and he said Cody and Conner are hitting big in baseball in Alabama. I don't have too many details, but think I will get Bob to make a post!!!! Watch for it. Candy got back from working a dogsled race in Fairbanks AK a couple of weeks ago. You should have seen her outfit we picked out for her to wear at Value Village to survive the bitter cold of 50 below zero!! Maybe she'll post her photo! I'm going to get into trouble witth her. Oliver is going to have a baby brother. David and Becky are planning atheir wedding for next summer. Peter has gone full-time at the Pickle Factory on Dodge Valley Road. Leah and Terry think they have their house sold, cross your fingers. Cameron won 1st place at the state wrestling tourney at the Tacoma Dome(35-0 season record),a couple of weeks ago, Dillon is working like crazy at the NSC Corporation and saving money and Foster is wrestling and playing soccer. Jon and Eric are planning a 2 week stay in Bow, WA this summer sometime around the 4th and are looking for a possible rental spot that is child frienldly complete with dirt, rocks blackberries, trees to climb and the like. Do you know of such a place?? Tyler/Amber, Dan, Sue, Jessie, Kelli, Beau, Mallory what's up? Donna?

On a serious note Peggy is going to Seattle next week for stem cell transplant and she and Mike will be staying there with her for 3 months. Lettie is taking a leave from her job and will be of great help. They all need our prayers and support.

Oliver is going to be a big brother of a lil brovfer.

Yep! Oliver is going to have a little brother...and 2 more Bridgmans to carry on the last name. Yippie!

Not Thanksgiving Day Day

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the Smith's cozy house in Bay View on a nice Sunday afternoon.

Pre-dinner TV watching.
The two baby's of the family (missing of course Eric and Jon's little ones).

I actually look pretty good in this photo, probably because I was first in line!

YUMMY! Look at all of that food!

Arthur sharing his favorite beer with Glen and Mike after the majority of the other guest have left. Thanks for all of the great food everyone, wish I could eat it all over again, de-lic.

Future Farmer Nik

Here we are in Northern Washington, visiting the Bridgman Clan, we of course had to make a stop at Mom's new place being built in Bay View. Nik was super excited about the tractor parked out front.

He also really enjoyed his tractor times at Auntie Tindy's house while we stayed there for 3 nights and then we moved to Auntie Candy's for another 3 nights.

Off to feed the cows.

First five minutes at Aunt Tindy's and he is already in love with her, she owns a tractor, how cool is that (at least I think that's what he is thinking).
