Our Visit the Baby Animals





Today we had a visit from the baby animals of Sundance Farm. There were ducks, goats, bunnies, hens and a lamb.  We created new memories and brought back old memories for some of the residents that grew up on a farm. It was great to hold all the animals. They are so precious.


One of the residents said "animals give so much and ask for little in return".

A Trip to the Broadway Market

Today we took a trip to the Broadway Market in staying with holiday tradition. Who could resist the sights and smells of the market. Between the chocolate, ham, sausage, butter lambs, baked goods, and easter flowers it was a difficult decision on what to buy. Needless to say, no one left empty handed.

An Irish Celebration










  Happy Saint Patrick's Day! To start off our Irish Celebration we had the Clann Na Cara Dance School come in. They performed many classic Irish Dances, while our residents clapped along. The more the residents clapped the higher the dancers kicked. After the performance we served refreshments ranging from our lucky green milk to our cupcake topped like the hills of Ireland. The next day we had a Saint Patrick's Day party. We did a coin toss to try to help fill up the Leprechaun's pot of Gold. We also had door prizes. To finish the party we served jello cake and refreshments. Like always our residents were decked out in their sea of green for Saint Patty's Day.

Scrabble Game


This afternoon we had a scrabble tournament. There were three teams competing against each other. Everyone learned a lot of new words and meanings. Some of the ladies said that they have not played in years but really enjoyed playing again.

Exercise and Fun


On Saturday afternoon we had fun playing balloon volley. We did not even realize how much exercise we were also getting in the process. After awhile we called it a tie game, then exercised our mind with trivia.

Singing with Bethany




On Friday we were joined by Bethany the music therapist from Hospice, who played spiritual songs on her guitar and harp as everyone sang along. We always feel inspired after her program.
