What a wonderfully warm and wintery week it has been here at Wardwell! Our days were filled with learning, laughter, lively outings, and a little extra holiday sparkle. 🌟

Travis Dixon stopped by for his monthly Health Topic, giving us plenty of helpful insights to keep us feeling our best through the season. Later in the week, Magdalana returned with her signature pizazz for a special discussion that sparked curiosity and conversation throughout the community. 💬✨

We then whisked ourselves into the spirit of the season with a cheerful Christmas shopping adventure to Walmart, checking off wish lists and sharing lots of laughs along the way. The fun continued with a delicious luncheon at Applebee’s, where good food and great company made for a delightful afternoon. 🍎🥗

Of course, it wouldn’t feel like the holidays without a bit of nostalgia. Residents gathered together to enjoy the timeless classic It’s a Wonderful Life, filling the room with heartfelt memories and festive cheer. As George Bailey said, “No man is a failure who has friends,” and our community proved that all week long. ❤️🎄

Bingo brought its usual midweek buzz, keeping spirits high and competition friendly. Our Exercise Blitz classes added movement to the merriment, including a special session hosted by Rachel that energized everyone from start to finish. 💪🎉

We also added the final touches to our Christmas decorations, making our home truly glow for the season. And the week ended with pure holiday magic as none other than Dasher himself trotted in for a visit, bringing joy, wonder, and a whole lot of smiles. 🦌✨

Here is to another week of connection, celebration, and community at Wardwell—where every day is a gift wrapped in friendship and fun. 🌟

✨ Tail-Waggin’ Tuesday at Wardwell! ✨

Today we’re celebrating our beloved furry friends, who enjoyed their scrumptious Wardwell Woofers right at home with their favorite humans! 🐾💛 These tasty treats were lovingly baked by our residents last Friday, and our staff pets were over the moon for them. 🐶🍪

It was a day filled with pawsitively precious moments, happy snouts, and lots of loyal love.

“The best therapist has fur and four legs.”

Here’s to the joy our four-legged family brings—one wag, one woof, and one warm heart at a time. 💕

The week was full of activities that boosted our spirits and brought plenty of smiles. Helping Hands had residents chopping fruits and vegetables with Brian, Cards added friendly competition with UNO, and Neuro Nudge challenges like Spot It and Wheel of Fortune kept our minds sharp and engaged. 🧠🎉

Music floated through our hallways more than once. Early in the week, Kevin Farley serenaded us with Irish Christmas favorites, while Billy Joe Lake later delivered a lively and heartwarming country guitar concert. 🎶🎸

Creativity and community shined with our Christmas cupcake decorating session and a personalized ornament craft that helped brighten our holiday tree. 🍰🎨 The week wrapped up on a sweet note with our From the Heart project, where residents created Wardwell Woofers and delivered them with love. 🐾❤️
