FALL SOCIAL

It was Columbus day, and the modern ships on wheels pulled in (landed) at the picnic grounds for the social.  Earlier the organizers had brought their goods and laid them out to share.  Everyone brought a dish of something to share.  We met new friends and visited with the ones we already knew.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BONNIE SEEGMILLER!


Bonnie and Kent Sailor Seegmiller
Vincy and Frank Stringham hosted a wonderful birthday party for Vincy's mom, Bonnie Seegmiller who will turn 90 years on October 21st.  The festivities were held at Vincy and Frank's home on Five Sisters Drive on Saturday afternoon.  For you who know Vincy, you know that she doesn't do anything half-way, and this significant birthday party was over the top! 
Although no dinner was officially served, the huge variety of tasty finger foods made a scrumptious meal for any appetite.  Bonnie sat in a comfortable chair and greeted her arriving guests.  Later on, she joined several dozen friends and neighbors on the patio for a party meal.
Their home sparkled, since Frank and Vincy has just completed redecorating.  They added new carpet, tile, paint, wall decor, new granite in kitchen and bath, and, thanks to Frank's handi-work,  re-finished  kitchen cabinets. 
Their patio and yard glowed, the sun on the pool reflecting the early evening light and Bonnie glowed in the love and friendship of her guests.
Bonnie has been a Foremaster Ridge resident since 2008 when she accepted the invitation to move to St. George and live with her daughter and son-in-law, Vincy and Frank.  Bonnie always has a wonderful smile and a happy laugh!  We are so glad she is our neighbor!
