Happy Thanksgiving

Eden Heights would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. This week our residents  took time to reflect on the year and share what they are thankful for. Many said they are thankful for friends, family, food, Eden Heights and the staff. They feel very fortunate and thankful. Even for the  little everyday things. We are also thankful to our Dietary staff for preparing our delicious Thanksgiving dinner of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, brussel sprouts, cranberry sauce and of course pumpkin pie. They made a wonderful meal. Everyone will finish off the day visiting family and friends or having fun playing games in our activity department with each other.

Scavenger Hunt

Thursday we had a scavenger hunt. Our residents ventured out thru the facility looking for their items. Everyone had so much fun. Well, except maybe for stephanie who had locks of her hair cut as one of the many items needed to win the hunt. Yes, she still has plenty of hair left and was a good sport. The residents also had to ask  Trisha to do a dance for each resident involved and then sign their paper as part of the hunt. No one was safe. But both staff and residents were involved and had many laughs. Please visit our website at http://www.edenheights.com/eden.html

A fun way to start the week

This morning our residents took a autumn ride to Mayer Brothers Cider Mill.  They enjoyed the sunshine and the beautiful colors that the fall season brings.  We bought tasty treats like cider, apples, baked goods, jams and jellies.  Later we enjoyed our cider and donuts while listening to readings of "Stories of the Heart".

The afternoon also brought fun and entertainment with John Little, who had our resident John trying out his singing voice. Also John and Julie were dancing the afternoon away.
