At St. Pat's weekend, Margaret and I were talking and we were wondering what you would think about going in together and buying a new couch for Bob and Pat. Margaret doesn't think Pat would mind if we picked out the couch...(our other option would be to give them a gift card to Petersen's Furniture). Amy and I looked at couches at Petersen's Furniture in town and they have Lazy-boys that have the 'motion' like their couch now has, where each end reclines. Those couches were between $900 and $1000. I could also look at Matt furniture in Spencer...they usually have sales on Lazy-boys the month of June for Father's Day. What do you think? If we get a couch, do you want it to be from the 'kids' or should it be from whoever wants to go in on it? Let me know your thoughts on that. I realize that if some or any of the grandkids went in on the gift, it might just be a small amount....it makes no difference to Joe or me how we do the gift... if you have some other idea, let us know.
We're planning on Megan and Emily staying here if they want, along with Amy & Dave and Laura. Shannon---if you and /or Eliza want to stay here, you can stay too. The rest of you are welcome to stay, but you'd only have floor space left to sleep on!
We're really looking forward to the weekend and being at the farm with everyone. :) It should be a lot of fun!

Terry-I like the gift card idea
Terry,
We can go either way on this in terms of buying or a gift card. Count us in.
I would recommend that the gift be identified as coming from everybody.
Bob
