An Easter Brunch!

We ask for approval months in advance for our luncheon dates, using the same day/different date from year to year when possible. This year, April 1st arrived, we turned our calenders and… guess what?  April’s 4th Floor luncheon was on Easter!

The crew arrived an hour earlier than usual to do an Easter Brunch.  What a treat for the patients and families!

Menu: Breakfast Strata, Silver Dollar Pancakes, cooked ham, peanut butter & jelly sandwiches, cheesy potatoes, sliced tomatoes, chicken soup, fruit salad, cole slaw, macaroni salad, brownies, assorted pastries, smoothies and assorted drinks. (psst…. send pictures…please! *Update: pictures were sent.  Doesn’t the food look delicious?!  They also served ham.)

Gee, it looks like the Easter Bunny came to the 4th floor luncheon, too!

Thank you Elizabeth, Mary, Jillian, Gladys, and Bob for taking a special day and making it extra special for the patients and families at Walter Reed!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please remember there is still a war going on.

Helmand Province, Helmand Province, Afghanistan – The commanding officer, Weapons Company, 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, is assisted by an Afghan interpreter to gather intelligence from an Afghan police officer during a
mission in Helmand province, Afghanistan, April 17.  The company’s two-day mission was to disrupt lethal enemy aid and to search three compounds of interest in an area suspected of Taliban influence. The compounds were suspected to contain a homemade-explosive lab, a cache for narcotics and be home to local Taliban leadership.

Until next time, continued prayers for our military and their families.

Love and Hugs,
