Found it!

This needs to be in the onUpdate method

    Intent intent = new Intent(context, ParkingWidget.class);
    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, 0);

    RemoteViews newviews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.parking_widget);
    newviews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.send_button, pendingIntent);
    appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetIds[0], newviews);

and you need to overide onRecive like this

@Override
  public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    super.onReceive(context, intent);
    sendSMS();  // code goes here

}
