Terrific Tuesday!






Today we enjoyed music with Lyle Stang. He really got the crowd dancing and clapping. He played a variety of music including some patriotic songs for the upcoming holiday. The residents also enjoyed a tasty treat, making and eating smores. They were a little messy, but that is part of the fun. Please visit our website @ http://www.edenheights.com/eden.html

Flag Raising Ceremony





Thursday was a special day for Eden Heights residents and staff. The residents donated a new flag and pole, which they had located in front of the building, where it could be proudly displayed. This project was very meaningful to our residents because it shows their patriotism and loyalty for their country. We were very thankful to have the local veterans from Post #880 in Eden to perform the ceremony for us. The program started off with a introduction by Rise, Administrator then a prayer, short story, twenty one gun salute and taps by the Veterans. We also remembered those who continue to fight for our country. After the ceremony everyone was invited for refreshments. Please visit our website @ http://www.edenheights.com/eden.html

During the week the residents enjoyed listening to music by John Little. He got us clapping, dancing and toe tapping. Julie and Jean are two of his favorite fans. To end the program there was the twist and chicken dance that a group of us danced to, along with John Little. Everyone had a great time!

Planting our Garden


On thursday it was a beautiful day, so we decided to plant our garden. We had colorful flowers for our hanging pots and to plant by the gazebo. In our backyard we will plant flowers around the trees. In our vegetable garden we planted various kinds of tomatoes, even the topsy turvy plant, cucumbers, eggplant, onions, zucchini, and cabbage. We are looking forward to watching our vegetables grow and use them in our cooking club and kitchen. Please visit our website at http://www.edenheights.com/eden.html
