Bright Ideas

Filed under: Blog — maxima @ 11:15 pm

Sometimes my big brother gets bright ideas.  I won’t describe most of them but his latest was a great idea.  He thought that he and his two younger siblings should get together on even months.  It took me a while to understand the concept because I thought he meant all months with an even number of days in it.  No….he meant the 2nd, 4th, 6th months….like that.  Ok, I get the concept. feb_hutchinson_1.jpg He said as we get older and our families expand, then we spend alot of time with them but not with our original family members.  He said he would organize the first get together(2nd month) and we met at the chinese buffet in Hutchinson, Mn.  Of course, he told me one buffet and David pulled up to a ‘closed on Sundays’ buffet.  hehehehehehe  Thank goodness for cell phones so we all ended up at the same buffet. 

So, the bright idea was for Gary, me and David and our spouses to get together on even months.  Anyone else in the family available can also come.  Here is our first sibling gathering.  David and his wife Doreen are in the back row with Asha(tho only other available person).  Gary is in the stripes next to his wife Orleen.  And on the left are the famous Blips and Maxima.  It was really alot of fun.  Now it is my turn to organize the next one in the 4th month.  Let’s see if I can make sure to tell everyone the SAME restaurant.
