Aloha from The Eastman! 🌴🌺

Our Family Luau Night was one for the books—and we had an absolute blast! From grass skirts and coconut tops to tropical tunes and big smiles, the island vibes were strong all night long! 🌞🌊

Our culinary team wowed us with mouthwatering pulled pork sliders, grilled pineapples, pasta salad, and baked beans — a feast fit for paradise! 🍍🍽️

A huge mahalo to:
🍹 Abraham from Treviso for the festive mocktail/cocktail table
🍉 Kellie from Concho Hearts for the stunning fruit spread
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 And most of all, to our incredible families and residents for bringing the aloha spirit and making the night so unforgettable!

Oh my goodness… Cooper the therapy dog came to visit, and our hearts just melted! 💕

These lovely ladies could not get enough of his cuddles, tail wags, and all-around sweetness. Cooper brought so much joy, and we’re pretty sure he soaked up just as much love as he gave! 🐶💖

A big thank you to Macie from Enhabit for making this special visit happen. Cooper, you're officially welcome back anytime for belly rubs and snuggles here at The Eastman! 🐾💕

It’s outings like these that make life at The Eastman so full of flavor and fun.

Spa Day in Art with HeART! ✨🧴

Today was all about relaxation and connection during our special Art with Heart session. Lisa from Marshall Hospice guided us through making our own hand lotion—complete with soothing essential oils! 🌿💧

She then pampered each resident with warm towels, gentle cuticle care, and a calming hand massage using their handmade lotion. 👐💕

Not only was this a peaceful and personal experience, but it was also a wonderful sensory activity—engaging touch, scent, and emotion in the most comforting way.

Thank you, Lisa, for helping us care for our hands and our hearts. 💗

Art with HeART at The Eastman!

Our residents had a wonderful time during our Art with HeART class, led by the talented Natasha from Traditions Health! Each participant painted their own terracotta pot, added soil, and planted wildflower seeds—ready to bloom on their windowsills. 🌸

A special highlight? Mrs. Becky was joined by her daughter and two grandsons, making it a beautiful, multigenerational memory. We absolutely love seeing families take part in our community activities! 💛

We love a good museum trip here at The Eastman—so of course we couldn’t pass up a visit to the East Texas Oil Museum in Kilgore, Texas! 🛢️🚌

This tour was packed with fun, interactive exhibits and fascinating East Texas history. Our residents had a blast exploring and learning something new. We absolutely loved this trip!

Our hearts are heavy as we witness the devastation caused by the catastrophic flooding across our neighboring counties the beautiful Texas Hill Country.

We’re praying for those who are missing, the families waiting in uncertainty or grieving loss, the search and rescue teams, the selfless servants, and the entire community as it faces the weight of this tragedy. Our hearts are with you all. 🕊️
