Happy Friday! It was a great morning spent with Jennifer and Claire from Music Safari outside on the patio. Everyone loved listening and singing along to wonderful hymns and other songs like, "Standing on the Promises" and "Amazing Grace" while they sang and played guitar. We also had a nice afternoon visiting with one another and enjoying tasty butterscotch pudding and coffee. We topped off the day by going outside for more fresh air and sunshine! What a fantastic Friday!
Happy Thursday! We began our morning with a little exercise, jokes, and singing a few classic songs. It was a great afternoon that started off with our social hour. We enjoyed tasty ice cream sundaes! What a good day for it! Lastly, we had Music Safari. Maddie and Claire led everyone with a finish the tune of famous musicals and gave us some trivia. It was a wonderful time!
Happy Monday! It was a great morning that began with exercising our bodies with stretches and a game of finish the tune. We sang many great songs like, "Sentimental Journey" and "Tea for Two." It was fun hearing some trivia about each song too! This afternoon, we enjoyed a tasty snack of crackers and cheese and then played bingo! We had lots of winners and it was such a good time had by all!
It was a great weekend! We got out for a little sunshine Saturday morning before it got just too hot! We enjoyed many funny stories of kids in the classroom and in church, had sing-along's, exercised with stretches, and listened to hymns Sunday morning. It was a great time together chatting, reminiscing, and enjoying our afternoon sweet treats! We also watched our favorite funny shows, The Lucy Show and The Carol Burnett Show.
Happy Friday! We had a great start to the day out in the garden! What a beautiful morning! We exercised with a few stretches and enjoyed some funny stories about flight announcements and hilarious signs that are around the world. It was also a wonderful afternoon socializing and eating tasty bars with coffee. After that, we had a good time singing several classic songs together including "Shine On Harvest Moon," "Oh What a Beautiful Morning," and "Home On the Range." We ended the day by watching a polka concert and dancing!
It was a picture perfect Minnesota day! We spent the whole afternoon in the garden (after enjoying some delicious ice cream sundaes with coffee!)
While some enjoyed walking the path and tending the flowers, most of the residents sat and talked about the good old days-- life on the farm, working in the bakery, flying the skies as a flight attendant, chasing little kids around as they grew, and more. We marveled at the sky, savored each gust of breeze that came our way, and just enjoyed our time together in such a beautiful and peaceful setting. Before dinner time, residents requested a concert be shown by Andre Rieu. One person commented, "What could be better? How could we have spent our time any better than we did today? Wow!" Happy Tuesday! We had a lot of musical fun today! This morning, we had All Saints come to sing a few hymns and sing-along songs outside! Then in the afternoon, we had our music therapist, Jennifer, and her intern, Claire, come to sing more favorite classic sing-along songs out in the garden! It was such a wonderful time!
