🎁✨ Nothing brings out our competitive spirit quite like a giant ball of plastic wrap! Today our residents took on the Seran Wrap Ball Game—and let’s just say, elbows were flying and laughter was nonstop. 😆Between chasing candy, tiny treasures, and the occasional runaway dice, everyone walked (or rolled!) away a winner. 🏆❤️We may not move as fast as we used to, but when there are prizes involved, we suddenly discover Olympic-level reflexes! 💪😂

It’s moments like these that remind us how special our community is—where love, friendship, and togetherness shine especially bright during the holiday season. 🎄

What a fun couple of day's it’s been! Yesterday, our group enjoyed a delicious meal together at Route 66 Restaurant—full of laughter, good food, and even better company. Today, we picked up our paintbrushes and glasses for a cheerful Paint & Sip session. Art knows no age—and neither does fun! Cheers to making memories, one brush stroke (and one sip) at a time. Stay tuned for more colorful adventures! 🎨🖌

Ready for a hauntingly good recap?
Our residents brought their A-game to this year’s Halloween Party! We had festive costumes, spooky snacks and games.
From ghostly giggles to witchy dance-offs, it was clear—nobody ghosts a party like us! Don’t worry, no mummies unraveled, and only a few vampires tried to stay up past their bedtime. Thanks to our residents and staff for making spooky season sweeter than a pillowcase full of candy! 🎃👻🕸🕷
